Keys to the Game:
•Make your shots
The 76ers love to go back and forth in buckets with teams. Make sure you get open looks and knock them down.
•Make Ben Simmons Shoot
Ben Simmons will probably win the rookie of the year award at the end of the season, but there's one thing he's not entirely great at: shooting. Sag off a little and make him shoot.
