Game 1 of the Philadelphia 76ers‘ second round series against the Atlanta Hawks had a less than ideal result with the Sixers ultimately ending it with a loss. However, towards the end of the game, the 76ers proved that they have enough to defeat the lower-seeded Hawks.
There’s going to be at least three adjustments that head coach Doc Rivers will need to make in order for the Sixers to defeat the Hawks in Game 2 and beyond. If he does these things, then the Sixers have a good chance to win this series, assuming Joel Embiid can play in each game at a high level.
