Honestly Philly is probably down more with a hobbled Embiid. They wouldn’t have had harden cooking like that if he didn’t have the ball in his hands so much

Need to just tighten up the D. 76ers can't do anything if they push the ball.

Do the Celtics never practice against the zone or something? 5 years straight the zone just kills them.
