One of the best games in the semi finals last year was with the Toronto Raptors versus the Philadelphia 76ers. The Toronto Raptors beat the Philadelphia 76ers in a 7 game semifinal series. It was one of the best series ever because it went down to the wire and all the players from the opposing team played really good and performed like actual all stars. Kawhi Leonard led the Toronto Raptors to the Finals when they beat the 76ers in a really dramatic way. The most intense moment from the series was at game 7 because it was a win or lose situation for both teams. So each team played very competitively against each other, Kawhi scored 41 points to help carry the Raptors throughout the game. On the other team Ben Simmons scored 21 points to carry Joel Embiid in the game because he had an upper respiratory infection at the time and he was struggling on the previous 2 games that he played. The image shown above is a very iconic photo of Kawhi Leonard during the Game 7 semifinal game against the 76ers. This photo was taken when Kawhi Leonard hit a sidestep fade away shot with Joel Embiid defending and you can see them looking at the basketball rim to see if the ball was going in because the way the ball went in was like it was about to go out because it kept bouncing side to side. There was 2 seconds left when he shot the ball and when it went in everyone's reaction were priceless especially Kawhi's because he tends to be not excitable but when he hit this shot he screamed with such joy while his teammates were surrounding him and hyping him up. This photo was a very iconic photo and many people have it framed because it was the shot that took the Toronto Raptors to the Finals for the first time ever.
