The Sixers pulled out a back-and-forth game Wednesday night in Cleveland, extending their advantage over the Cavs in the standings with a 118-109 victory. NoahLevick of NBCSPhilly has the recap HereTheyCome
At 46-22, the Sixers are four games ahead of the Cavs for the No. 3 seed in the Eastern Conference. They’re one game behind the No. 2 Celtics, who beat the Timberwolves on Wednesday, and 3.5 games back of the top-seeded Bucks.The Sixers will play a road back-to-back against the Hornets on Friday and the Pacers on Saturday. Here are observations on their win Wednesday:With Allen out, Embiid matched up against Evan Mobley.
The Sixers hurt themselves early with turnovers, though. Embiid committed three in the first and Maxey had two that led directly to Cleveland fast-break points. For as fantastic as Embiid is, he’s been right toNo two turnovers are identical, but the Sixers generally seemed a bit too free and easy with their approach.
Clearly, it also hurt that Harris and Tucker totaled two points on 1-for-4 shooting before intermission. And it didn’t help that the light-scoring Stevens-Isaac Okoro duo combined to shoot 4 for 6 from three-point range in the game.
