Alright, so we took the win and the Celtics are moving on to the next round of the playoffs! It’s going to be Knicks or Hawks next in the Conference Semi-Finals. Honestly, after being so close to winning the NBA Finals just two years ago, we think we’ve got a real shot at another championship. But things are about to get seriously hard – we’re not facing any more Play-In teams, only tough competition from here on out!

Well, the Sixers’ season is over, and it’s tough to see it end like this. Looking back, there were definitely some good moments, but also things that didn’t quite work out. It’s a little scary to think about how late in their careers Joel Embiid and Paul George are, honestly. On the bright side, I was really impressed with what I saw from V.J. Edgecombe – that kid has a future! But let’s be real, he and Tyrese Maxey can only take us so far. Hopefully, the Sixers can find another gem in the draft this year and build something special.

That concludes our NBA 2K26 simulation of the 76ers-Celtics Game 5. We hope you enjoyed it, and we’re excited to see how the actual game plays out tonight!
