Sixers Stay Alive in Game 5 and Knicks Dominate at the Garden

The NBA Playoffs delivered another wild night as the Philadelphia 76ers hold off elimination with a statement win in Boston. Joy Taylor breaks down how Joel Embiid’s dominant Game 5 performance reminded everyone why he’s an MVP-caliber force, and why the Celtics’ reliance on three‑point shooting continues to be a troubling trend when shots stop falling.  Joy also dives into the Knicks–Hawks series, highlighting New York’s dominating performance at Madison Square Garden and what it says about their playoff ceiling. With Jalen Brunson leading the way and the Knicks winning their games convincingly, Joy examines whether this momentum can carry forward—and what questions remain as they look to close out the series in Atlanta. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
