The Nets are looking to bounce back after a disappointing performance in Game 1 of the series. In the 121-101 defeat, turnovers were the story as they committed 19 to 8 and they also got beat on the offensive boards 14-5. However, they did shoot 55% from the field as a team so if their defence can improve, they should give the 76ers a closer contest. Bridges was excellent for the Nets in his first playoff game for Brooklyn with 30 pts. There’s always some extra motivation after he was drafted and traded by the 76ers.<\/span><\/p>\n The 76ers started their playoff journey in perfect fashion as they trashed the Nets by 20 pts in Game 1. Embiid, Harden and Harris all scored over 20 pts in the rout. Harden was excellent from beyond the arc with 7 threes and he’ll continue to be motivated against his former side. As a team, the 76ers dominated the boards, only had 8 turnovers and they hit all 16 of their free throws. They’re comfortable favourites to win Game 2 and their gameplan shouldn’t change on Tuesday.<\/span><\/p>\n There shouldn’t be much of a change from the Game 1 result as the 76ers are a much better team, especially at home. They’re now 4-1 ATS when they face the Nets and 9-2 against them in Philly. So take the 76ers to win this comfortably and look for a sweep in Brooklyn.<\/span><\/p>\n Stadium Record<\/b><\/p>\n Philadelphia are 4-1 in their last 5 at home. Brooklyn has lost 9 of their last 11 in Philly.<\/span><\/p>\n Head to Head Record<\/b><\/p>\n
