Philadelphia won the opening match of the playoffs.

James Harden scored 7 from the 3-point line and finished with 23 points and 13 assists; the MVP finalist Joel Embiid added 26 points as the Philadelphia 76ers won against Brooklyn Nets 121-101 in Game 1 of the series.

Tobias Harris notched 21, and Philly set a team’s record for most made 3-pointers in the playoffs – 21 at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, PA. The 76ers will try to clinch the 3rd round of the postseason for the 1st time after 2001.

The next match will be on Monday, again at Wells Fargo Center.

Miles Bridges was the highest-scoring player from the Big Apple team with 30. Brooklyn started the season with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving but now will have to win without big stars.
