This was another loss for Philly, but head coach Nick Nurse knew their game plan against Brunson was working. Unfortunately, his scoring outburst in the fourth quarter was unstoppable, but it showed that Philly can defend Brunson well.
"He certainly wasn't getting near the clearance as he was in Game 1. He was getting practice shots a lot in that game. I think the challenges were much better," Nurse said after the Game 2 loss to New York.
If Nurse and the rest of the 76ers roster can keep defending at a high level, they could surprise the Knicks. Games 3 and 4 will be played in Philadelphia, so the 76ers will be comfortable, and they might even have Joel Embiid back to lead them to victory.
