Tobias Harris

Unlikely heroes have become a common theme for the Sixers in their Eastern Conference semifinal matchup with the Hawks. In Game 6 on Friday, it was rookie Tyrese Maxey. Things did not get off to a perfect start for the Sixers on Friday. On top of a slow start offensively, two starters found themselves in foul trouble. With Ben Simmons and Tobias Harris on the bench, Doc Rivers called on Tyrese Maxey to provide a spark off the bench.

The Philadelphia Sixers came back to beat the Atlanta Hawks 104-99 in Game 6, forcing a Game 7 on Sunday. The Sixers were down 12 points early in the game. “We said there’s really going to be a lot of criticism but we really have to stay focused because the series isn’t over. ... As a group we basically just locked into that," said Tobias Harris after the game, alluding to the Sixers blowing leads in the previous two games.

The Philadelphia 76ers blew Game 5 against the Atlanta Hawks in epic fashion, throwing away a 26-point advantage and totally melting down in crunch time to suffer a stunning 109-106 defeat. The top-seeded Sixers are now on the brink of elimination after choking away consecutive games in this second-round series.

Tobias Harris stepped up when the Philadelphia 76ers needed him most, and head coach Doc Rivers couldn’t be happier as the Sixers star showed what he is truly capable of. After leading the Sixers to a pivotal 104-99 Game 6 win to force a do-or-die against the Atlanta Hawks, Harris got an interesting comparison from Rivers. According to the champion tactician, he is seeing a lot of Bernard King in Harris, which is also the reason why he is calling him that name more often than not.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris came up big for the Sixers as they took down the Atlanta Hawks on their own home floor on Friday night. After the game, Harris confessed that he had to pull out all the stops to ensure that he was locked in for Game 6.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris co-led his team with 24 points en route to a 104-99 win over the Atlanta Hawks in Game 6 of their Eastern Conference second-round playoff series on. It was a great bounce-back performance after Harris registered just four points on 2-of-11 shooting in a 109-106...

Look at how we view the 2019 Toronto Raptors because a ball bounced in. Thankfully, for Kawhi Leonard and the Raptors, the ball had enough ark and spin to rotate into the basket as opposed to away from it, which is why Leonard gave it the height it had, along with the fact that he was shooting over Joel Embiid.

After the Sixers' embarrassingly bad loss to the Hawks in Game 5, Philly sports fans have officially reached "We are not okay" mode. While there was plenty of blame to go around, most of it fell on two-thirds of the team's Big Three failing to produce at all in a crucial game. We've covered Sixers fans crushing Ben Simmons ad nauseum, but don't think Tobias Harris is getting off scot-free.

Harris registered 24 points (9-20 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds and two assists across 39 minutes in Friday's win over the Hawks. Harris was woeful in Game 5 (four points, 2-11 FG), but he bounced back admirably and finished Friday's game as one of the top scorers for the Sixers. Considering Harris has scored at least 20 points in all but two of his playoff appearances this season, the struggles of Game 5 might have been nothing more than an outlier and an off night for the veteran forward. He's averaging 18.7 points per game on the current series while shooting 51.1 percent from the field and 40 percent from three-point range.

The Philadelphia 76ers are engaged in a 2-2 deadlock with the Atlanta Hawks in the Eastern Conference Semifinals. During the series, most of the attention has gone to big-name stars Trae Young, Joel Embiid or Ben Simmons. However, one of the most important players from the entire postseason, Tobias Harris, is a signing that many Sixers fans originally detested.

110-3 yesterday. The NBA Playoffs are really starting to piss me off. I can deal with losing bets. I'm a good loser because if you bet a lot you have a lot of practice. What I can't deal with is the lack of transparent information available for making a wager.
