The Philadelphia 76ers were pretty aggressive out of the gate in Game 2 and Ben Simmons had perhaps the best playoff performance of his young career. Now, the series is headed towards the nation’s capital.

Scott Brooks’ team will have to be near perfect if they want to stand a chance against the top-ranked squad in the Eastern Conference, especially after such a big statement in the second game of the series.

Washington Wizards vs Philadelphia 76ers: Storylines

Russell Westbrook left Game 2 early with an undisclosed injury and his availability for the third of the series is still up in the air. The Wizards were a borderline playoff team with him and simply don’t stand a chance without him.

The Sixers have been pretty solid during their first two games of the series but they were a far less dominant team on the road than they were at home. They need to make the most of their edge and get some rest in the case they advance to the next round, so it’s not time to relax.
