CLEVELAND - Before the Sixers went on the road without him, Joel Embiid asked his teammates to keep winning and stay on top of the Eastern Conference. The Sixers, who were beaten twice by the Cavs earlier this season, went 4-2 on their trip as they wait for Embiid to get back from a knee injury. Philly’s bench outscored Cleveland’s 65-26, and the Sixers wrapped up a trip that could have gone the other direction sans Embiid. “That was a heck of a trip for us,” said Sixers coach Doc Rivers, acknowledging earlier this season his team would haver collapsed without Embiid.
