76ers (+) over Knicks- The Knicks earned the second seed in the Eastern Conference after going 50-32 -- their best seed and top record since the 2012-13 team also was seeded second after finishing 54-28. The 76ers (47-35) clinched the seventh seed Wednesday night by coming back from a 12-point halftime deficit to edge the Miami Heat 105-104 in a play-in game. The Knicks haven't made the NBA Finals since 1999 and haven't advanced beyond the second round since 2000. They had only four players participate in at least 70 games. Three of those players, Jalen Brunson, Donte DiVincenzo and Josh Hart were teammates on national championship-winning teams at Villanova. New York was 20-3 in games in which OG Anunoby played following his acquisition from the Toronto Raptors Dec. 30, but he missed 27 games due to an elbow injury. Joel Embiid was limited to 39 games by a chronic left knee injury but averaged 34.7 points, 11.0 rebounds and 5.6 assists per contest. The 76ers went 31-8 with him in the lineup but just 16-27 when he was in street clothes. The Knicks won three of the four games in the season series. Embiid had 30 points and 10 rebounds in his lone appearance against New York. Take PHILADELPHIA!
