The Philadelphia 76ers know their opponent for the first round of the 2022 NBA playoffs. Securing the No. 4 seed, the Sixers will take on the divisional rival Toronto Raptors, owners of the No. 5 seed after a late charge into the postseason.
The Sixers and the Raptors played four times in the regular season, and Philadelphia dropped three of them. All were pretty close games. The Raptors played a tough, physical style that bothered the Sixers. Philadelphia star Joel Embiid did not play in the first game, and Raptors star guard Fred VanVleet did not play in three of those games.
Before the series tips off with Game 1 on Saturday, we are going to take a look at the four games from the regular season.
