It’s always fun when the Philadelphia 76ers come to town.
The Boston Celtics earned win No. 46 on Tuesday night thanks to a big second half, but it was Philly who came out of the gates firing, quieting a TD Garden crowd that was eager to witness the latest installment of this bitter rivalry.
New 76er Buddy Hield got it going from three, hitting a pair of long-range shots and setting up Tobias Harris off a nice cut for the and-1 layup. Philadelphia looked to attack off the dribble early, opening up a slight lead before the Celtics settled in and closed the gap.
