The Philadelphia 76ers are coming back to South Philly with a monumental opportunity to gain traction in the series. After a thorough beating in Game 1, the Sixers refueled and adjusted to earn a win to even the series.
The late-game heroics of Jimmy Butler and Joel Embiid capped off a gritty, grinding defensive brawl. The Sixers are still waiting for Tobias Harris and Ben Simmons to find their groove offensively, while James Ennis and Greg Monroe were the unexpected heroes off the bench.
