Marco Belinelli said something today that wouldn’t surprise anyone who has watched his 76ers face the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference quarterfinals.
The Sixers lead the best-of-seven series, 3-1, and can close out the series tonight at Wells Fargo Center. “But at the same time, it’s going to be another war,” Belinelli said at the team’s practice facility. “So we just need to be ready and focus on this game.”
The Sixers didn’t match the Heat’s physicality in Game 2, and it led to a loss. So they put on their big-boy pants, went toe-to-toe and elbow-to-elbow with the Heat, and won the next two games.
