The Miami Heat may be on the cusp of their most difficult task, thus far, of these 2022 NBA Playoffs. Though there is still a bit of doubt, there is a chance that Joel Embiid could be back for Game 3 of their second-round playoff series against his Philadephia 76ers.
Even more of a reason to see it this way, the game will be the first of Philly’s two consecutive guaranteed home games. With that though, the task isn’t necessarily an easy one for them either.
Being down already in this series, 0-2, the 76ers will have to make a heck of a homestand to take the series back to South Florida tied up and a really good one to make it back to Miami at all at 3-1, avoiding the series sweep. However and again, they do have the guy, potentially, coming back that should be the league’s MVP in the eyes of many.
If the Miami Heat do go on to win this series, which you assume they will, you have to consider all that will be said though. Heck, most of it has already been said to try and get ahead of it all.
