NBA PLAYOFFS SECOND ROUND GAME 1 PREVIEW: Heat look for 2-0 series lead vs Sixers

The Miami Heat have another home game they need to win to hold serve and head Philadelphia with a 2-0 series lead before a potential return of Joel Embiid.

In Game 1, the Heat held the Sixers to 92 points. James Harden had 16 points and Miami was able to impose their will in the second half. In Game 2, the Heat will have to play even better with their shooting and with their ball control.

Miami shot poor from the perimeter and coughed the ball up plenty of times. It was far from their best game.
