Terrible effort and execution by Miami in the second half, but they’ve let the 76ers dictate the pace all night long. 76ers are playing much faster right now without Embiid, and combined with them hitting everything they’ve thrown up from three point land, that’s not a good combination.
Spo is a good enough coach that I expect some adjustments and a better showing next game. I think the Heat can still win this series, as the Philly young’uns still have yet to experience the playoff atmosphere outside of the comfort of Wells Fargo Center.
Would be interesting to see a Boston/Philly second round, though, as we matchup much better with Philly defensively and can really challenge their shooting.
