Joel Embiid se harta del MVP
fue muy duro para la franquicia de Philadelphia, que perdió la inercia de sus dos victorias como local y recibió una paliza que le deja a las puertas de la eliminación (3-2 para los de Florida). Y para su gran estrella, Joel Embiid, que está a punto de quedarse otra vez fuera de la final del Este, una ronda que se le sigue resistiendo (esta es su cuarta semifinal de Conferencia en un lustro).
