Both of those played out as expected in the Celtics' 109-101 Game 1 victory Monday night. The Celtics flustered the Sixers into committing 18 turnovers in Game 1. Rather than force the ball to Embiid in the post, Brown emphasized the need to get him the ball "in different floor spots." The longer this series goes, the more the Sixers will grow accustomed to the Celtics' length and defensive game plans.
