Last season, they defeated the Atlanta Hawks, 104-99, on the road in Game 6 to force Game 7. A byproduct of the Sixers’ horrendous 120-85 loss to the Heat Tuesday was that Springer and Bassey were on the floor for the final six-plus minutes.

As Maxey spoke to reporters at Game 6′s shootaround in Toronto, reserve forward Georges Niang interrupted with, “Come on, Tyrese!

Of course, a Joel Embiid injury — or a re-aggrevation of one of the countless injuries he’s already playing through — could instantly derail things for the Sixers, but assuming that doesn’t happen, this series will be headed to a Game 7 on Sunday night. Joel Embiid continues to play through a myriad of injuries, Jimmy Butler has been dominant, and the Sixers are in desperate need of an answer after a 35-point loss on Tuesday night.

Basically an afterthought on the Heat roster to begin the season, Strus came up huge on Thursday night when the Heat needed him the most.
