Sixers make a statement against Bucks and put the NBA on notice

The Sixers were home for Christmas and Joel Embiid & Co. gave fans an absolute gift by dominating the Milwaukee Bucks. On national TV, the Sixers proved that they’re NBA Finals contenders. Joel Embiid led this team to one of their best offensive performances against the NBA’s top defense. The team as a whole performed as they were able to tie a franchise record of 21 made three-pointers in a game.

If the Sixers had lost this game it would have been a disappointment, if they had won a close game, fans would have been ecstatic. Neither of those outcomes occurred though as the Sixers did win, but did so easily.
