BOSTON, MA (WBZ-AM) -- Celtics-Sixers, Game 2 Thursday night in Boston. The Celtics C's took the opener at home in convincing fashion 117-101.
Sixers will obviously have to be better to force a split in the conference semifinals heading back to Philadelphia for Game 3 Saturday, and their stars Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons aren't worried about the issues last time out evolving into a trend.
The biggest area - 3-point shooting. Celts defended the perimeter well and forced the Sixers into 21 misses in 26 attempts. The Green made 17 of 35.
