Sixers celtics game five

The Timelord does a great job closing out to Niang's side to avoid fouling, and he fully extends his right arm to block the shot. Quite a way for Williams to cap off his first game back from the flu.

I thought the other nigh t starting Matisse against the Timberwolves was a great example — looked great, but then they trapped Joel every time and we had one less guy.

So you can go either way with it. Boston had listed Jaylen Brown as questionable for Wednesday's game with the designation of "return to competition reconditioning," but Celtics head coach Ime Udoka told reporters the team will have its full roster available.

Brown has played in four games since returning from a right hamstring strain, averaging But when he arrives there, instead of curling to the rim, Embiid opts for a fadeaway. That decision came with Tatum by his right shoulder, well-positioned to block his shot. Embiid loses the ball while driving to the rim, Tatum retrieves it, throws it ahead to Jaylen Brown, and Marcus Smart gets rewarded for flanking him on the opposite side of the court, finishing off the alley-oop.

Brown snakes the pick-and-roll, getting into the paint with ease and creating separation between him and Embiid. However, the latter gets the last laugh, blocking Brown's sweeping hook shot, something that rarely happens on that type of attempt. As Smart comes to double-team him, Embiid dribbles into a step-back foot jump shot from the corner; that's something the Celtics will happily accept.

Embiid took over down the stretch, burying three-straight Sixers' baskets, including this one, to help them snap their three-game losing streak.
