Final: Knicks win 118-115, take the series 4-2.

Jalen Brunson led the way with 41/12 for New York. Joel Embiid had 39/13 for the Sixers.

Sixers starters outside of Embiid shot just 13-36 for 34 points, including just 6-18 from Maxey and zero points in 29 minutes from Harris.

The Knicks conceded a quick 2 for Joel Embiid,

But then the Sixers couldn't commit a quick foul, and Embiid had to eventually foul DiVincenzo. It is Embiid's 6th. His night is done, finishing with 39 points and 13 rebounds.

Knicks lead 116-113 with 11 left.

Sixers double off of Josh Hart to get the ball out of Jalen Brunson's hands.

Of course Hart makes it.

114-111 with 24.4 seconds left. Timeout Philly.

Ruled a goaltend and a foul on that Tyrese Maxey layup attempt. He'll go to the line with a chance to tie the game at 111 with 34.9 seconds left.

Jalen Brunson with 10 huge fourth quarter points, and the Knicks have opened up a 107-99 lead with 3:26 left in regulation. Timeout Sixers.

One of best playoff performances of Joel Embiid's career, and that even includes the 50 spot he put up in this building a few days ago. Has been in complete control, and countered every defense New York has thrown his way. 35/12 on 11-22 shooting with a ton of hockey assists.

And it's an 83-83 tie heading into the 4th quarter, as we all should have expected.

After the rollercoaster of the first half, we've set back to the equilibrium the first five games had set: these two teams are pretty freakin close.

Per Matt Williams: The 76ers are the 1st team to trail by 20+ points in the 1st half and lead at halftime in the last 25 postseasons.

Knicks have been letting Embiid go to work against single coverage for most of the 3rd, and it's led to some pretty predictable results: Embiid just went to the line for 2 free-throws, his 15th and 16th points of the quarter. He's up to 33 on the night, and the Sixers lead by 7.

Joel Embiid's added 10 points to his total in the first 4 minutes of the 3rd, hitting a pair of 3s, a midrange jumper and 2 free-throws. He's up to 27/11 in 23 minutes and the Sixers lead 66-61 with 8:16 left in the 3rd.
