Halftime Deficit Brings Boos
The Sixers fell behind by 24 points at halftime after committing 15 turnovers and allowing a 69-45 lead. The crowd voiced its frustration as the visitors built what became a 29-point deficit overall. Tyrese Maxey, who finished with 32 points and six assists, urged his teammates to show resilience instead of folding.
Third-Quarter Surge Narrows Gap
Philadelphia opened the second half with an 8-0 run and outscored the Cavaliers 37-21 in the third quarter. Defensive adjustments limited the visitors' pick-and-roll success after they had averaged more than a point per possession on those plays earlier.
Late Lead Holds in Fourth
They committed just two turnovers after the break while holding the Cavaliers to 37 second-half points. Philadelphia completed the largest comeback in the play-by-play era for both franchises and the biggest of LeBron James' 24-year career.
