Are the 76ers being disrespected in their first-round playoff series against the New York Knicks?

Dissecting the 76ers’ 105-104 victory over the Miami Heat in the NBA Play-In Tournament.

Somehow someway the Philadelphia 76ers came back to beat the Miami Heat 105-104 in the first play-in game in the Eastern Conference. The Sixers were able to overcome a first half where they committed 12 turnovers and hit just 3 threes on 18 attempts. 

Segment 1: THREE BIG THINGS: 1) I don't believe what I just saw the Sixers team in the first half somehow pulled out a victory in the second-half! 2) Nico Batum save to the Sixers from having to play a 2nd Play-In game. 3) Finally hitting outside shots. Sixers were 3-18 from three early in the 3rd quarter, but bounced back to hit 9-of-15 down the stretch. 

Segment 2: Nico is the shining example of why depth is so crucial for this Sixers team. 

Segment 3: Oubre clutch again down the stretch hitting shots and Free Throws.
