The Boston Celtics face their Atlantic Division rival Philadelphia 76ers at TD Garden for Game 1 of their 2023 Eastern Conference Playoffs series this Monday, May 1 evening. The Sixers will likely be without one of their most important players as Joel Embiid recovers from a sprained knee, but will that cause the Celtics to take Philly too lightly?
