76ers vs. Hawks Prediction

It's hard to ignore the fact that Philadelphia has dominated Atlanta in the two wins in this series and the 76ers are a notch above this feisty Hawks' team. Even with Danny Green sidelined, Embiid can't be stopped and Philadelphia will prove to be too much for Atlanta once again.
