PHILADELPHIA — If you are a believer in the Sixers, Christmas Day had to feel vindicating.
It was Philadelphia 121, Milwaukee 109 inside a packed Wells Fargo Center. The offense, maligned for its perimeter problems, connected on 47.7% of its threes. Tobias Harris made five. Furkan Korkmaz made four. Joel Embiid and Al Horford each made three. Before the game, Sixers GM Elton Brand noted that Philadelphia ranked in the top-10 in three-point percentage, but their 30 attempts per game sits in the bottom third in the league. We need to shoot more threes, Brand said.
