Cameron Johnson went nuts in the first half against the Sixers in Game 2. The young forward, acquired by Brooklyn as part of the Kevin Durant blockbuster with Phoenix, scored 22 points before halftime.

He also posterized Joel Embiid — and stared the big man down the entire way back down the floor. Luckily for the Sixers, Embiid is a goldfish.

“I don’t know. I don’t remember getting dunked on,” Embiid said.

It was Embiid and the Sixers laughing postgame as they used a dominant second half to beat the Nets 96-84 to take a 2-0 series lead Monday.
