With the season on the line, the Sixers fell apart at the finish line, dropping the game, 99-90, and the series, 4-2, to the Miami Heat. While not playing very inspiring ball in the first half, the Sixers got solid halves from Joel Embiid and James Harden and found themselves down by just a point. They completely collapsed in the third quarter, shooting just 6-of-21 from the field in the frame. Behind a 32-point performance from Jimmy Butler and 20 points from Max Strus, the Heat would take a double-digit lead and never look back.<\/p>\n

Joel Embiid gave it everything his body gave him, putting up 20 points and 12 rebounds, but was hampered from the field as he shot 7-of-22. James Harden had a solid 11-point first half before putting on quite the disappearing act; he did not score in the second half. Tyrese Maxey had 20 points, but it was too little, too late. As the Sixers head into another offseason with more questions than answers, here are some instant reactions from Game 6. <\/p>\n
