POSTCAST: Batum's Six 3's leads 76ers to Play-in Win vs Miami!

Somehow someway the Philadelphia 76ers came back to beat the Miami Heat 105-104 in the first play-in game in the Eastern Conference. The Sixers were able to overcome a first half where they committed 12 turnovers and hit just 3 threes on 18 attempts. 

The Sixers turnaround started at the 6:57 mark of the 3rd quarter when they were trailing 59-48. The Sixers fans in attendance grew tired of their team’s struggles (and rightfully so) and had already boo’ed their team a number of times. But then there was hope. The Heat’s Caleb Martin missed back-to-back free throws, which at the Wells Fargo Center awards the crowd free chicken nuggets from a sponsor. For the first time since player intros, there was LIFE in the crowd! And the Sixers responded! Nico Batum the first of what would be 6 three-pointers as he lead the Sixers’ charge in taking over the game. 

Batum finished with 20pts off the bench, while Joel Embiid scored 23pts with 15rebs. Buddy Hield was also clutch off the bench, coming up with 7pts and 6 assists in 18 minutes played.
