The Philadelphia 76ers could not have asked for a better bounce-back performance after Saturday afternoon’s debacle.
An offensive explosion capped by a 51-point third quarter brought the Wells Fargo Center to an outstanding uproar as the Sixers evened the series.
Ben Simmons obviously took the harsh criticism to heart as he scored 16 points in the first half. Boban Marjanovic was money from the elbow. The Nets could not do anything with Joel Embiid in the post.
It was a video game-like performance that should give the Sixers all the momentum heading into Brooklyn for Games 3 and 4.
