When last we got to watch Sixers basketball, it was a sad, unceremonious end as Joel Embiid, James Harden, Tyrese Maxey and co. were trounced in the deciding Game 7 of the East Semifinals.
Jayson Tatum dropped 51 points and capped a dominant, clutch performance with 13 boards and five dimes.
After dominating in Games 1 and 4, with a pair of 40-plus point gems, then helping facilitate a monster Game 5 team win, which sent the series back to Philadelphia for a potential closeout Game 6, The Beard went out with a whimper down the home stretch.
