Spirited 1st half effort from the Sixers as they bolt out to a surprising 14pt lead in the 2nd quarter.

Celtics rally to cut the lead to five, but Embiid's trey at the end of the 2nd gives Philly an 8 pt lead at halftime.

Maxey and Embiid leading the way with 18 pts each.

PG having another bad shooting night so far. 4 - 12 and 0 - 6 from 3pt range.

After a 66 pt first half, Sixers could only muster 16 pts in the 3rd quarter. They had some good looks, but just couldn't bury them.

They need to attack the paint more instead of settling for long jumpers.

Game tied going to the 4th.

Caleb Martin is living up to his reputation as a Celtic killer with one of his best games as a Sixer.

Celtics leave Caleb Martin wide open and he drains his 6th trey of the game to give the Sixers a 15 pt lead.

Sixers are cooking with the small lineup. Embiid still on the bench with 6 minutes left.

Embiid checks back into the game with 4:47 left and an 11 pt lead.

PG is hurting the team with his terrible shooting. He really needs to step it up.
