Philadelphia 76ers vs Chicago Bulls Analysis
The Philadelphia 76ers dropped back to third in the Eastern Conference with Monday’s 109-105 double overtime loss against the Bulls. Now 48-23, three games behind first place Bucks and one half game behind second place Celtics, this setback snapped their 8 game winning streak. Philly outshot and outrebounded Chicago, but turnovers and fouls proved costly for them. Joel Embiid had another impressive night for Philadelphia with 37 points and 16 rebounds. James Harden, the NBA’s leading scorer, fouled out in the first overtime and that put the Sixers at a significant disadvantage heading into overtime 2. Tyrese Maxey added 22 points while De’Anthony Melton chipped in with 19 points; James Harden did play despite an injury but only had 5 points; however he did grab 7 rebounds and 12 assists for good measure. PJ Tucker remains questionable for Wednesday’s game.
On Monday night, the Chicago Bulls pulled off an incredible victory against the Sixers by defeating them 109-105 in double overtime. It appears the Bulls have finally turned the corner and are playing like the team everyone expected them to be. After winning three straight games and five of their last six, they now sit at 34-37 overall. They currently sit 10th in the conference and hold a two-game lead over 11th place Washington for the final play-in spot. But the Bulls are only one half game behind 9th place Toronto and one behind 8th place Atlanta, so they could easily move up a notch or two with an impressive finish. On Monday night, the Bulls capitalized on 19 Philadelphia turnovers while only turning over 10 times. Chicago’s Big 3 led the charge with Zach LaVine scoring 26 points, DeMar DeRozan adding 25 and Nikola Vucevic contributing 21 points and 12 rebounds. Coby White finished off the night with 11 points off the bench for an even scoring performance.
