We’ve made it to the playoffs! The Philadelphia 76ers and Brooklyn Nets are set to open up the 2023 postseason, kicking off for an early afternoon tip-off at 1 p.m. EST in South Philly.
This is a somewhat intriguing first-round matchup, as these teams haven’t really faced off against each other much at all — especially for being in the same division. Their first two matchups of the regular season featured an entirely different Nets group featuring Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving; both whom are now on different teams.
The two other games played offer very little background in a potential matchup between both teams.
