The NBA playoff series between the 76ers and Hawks has been more of a battle than expected.
Philadelphia was the best team in the Eastern Conference during the 2020-21 regular season and was all but certain to make a run to the Eastern Conference finals. Atlanta was largely in the play-in tournament race before a midseason coaching change sparked a 27-11 finish and the No. 5 seed in the playoffs.
Now, Nate McMillan will look to win just his third career playoff series in 12 tries as a coach.
Can the Hawks pull off an upset that few expected when the NBA playoffs began? Atlanta had a chance to close out Philadelphia at home in Game 6 but the 76ers emerged with a 104-99 win. Now, Joel Embiid, Ben Simmons and Tobias Harris will look to power their team to the Eastern Conference finals.
