The Heat beat the 76ers on Monday night and in the process Philadelphia fell 1.5 games behind both the Hawks and Raptors and into the play-in. With less than two weeks remaining in the season they are running out of time to climb out. The Magic, Heat and Hornets are all within two games. They have their work cut out for them.
On Monday, Miami ended the game on a 16-2 run after Embiid hit a three to give the Sixers a 107-103 lead with 3:22 remaining.Embiid finished with 26 points and has produced since returning from an injury that kept him out for most of March, but his flopping and flailing seem to be getting on the nerve of opponents, announcers and fans. Maybe now more than ever.
