More on Philadelphia 76ersFair point on the defense, though I'd want to see it hold up over a full stretch before I buy in. Down 29 and still winning is a great story, but a comeback like that usually means the first half was the problem. Did Maxey's second half feel like the real turning point to you?
A 29-point comeback is great, but I'd push back on calling the defense the reason. Maxey and Embiid did the scoring damage and the Cavs' late cold stretch did the rest, so the slow start is still a real problem.

mikeyd is ▲ on the Philadelphia 76ers ($76ERS) bandwagon: $76ERS: Opening night W over Cleveland, 114-106. Defense showed up when it counted. Now we get a few more of those and stop with the slow starts, PHILLY!
