Each member of the organization that spoke after the game — Bickerstaff, Garland and Wade — referenced Philadelphia’s physicality. According to Wade, the Sixers were holding and standing up players on cuts, leading to some stagnation. They were setting bone-crushing screens at the other end and playing with a good pace, keeping Cleveland defenders from getting in the way. “It’s a matter of playing with force and playing with speed,” Bickerstaff said.
