Can the Tatum-less Celtics beat the 76ers in game 2?

Honestly, there isn’t too much to be mad at about the Celtics/Sixers game on Wednesday in terms of how the Celtics played. Despite not having Jayson Tatum and Kemba being on a minute restriction, the Celtics were in the game the whole time and it was probably a game they should’ve won in the end, but Embiid just had one of those nights. You’re not gonna beat a team when their best player scores 42 points on 21 free throws. He has turned flopping into an art the same way Marcus has, so we shouldn’t be mad about it.
