Are the Boston Celtics in control of their East semis series vs. the 76ers as it shifts to Philadelphia?

After the Boston Celtics’ blowout Game 2 win of their 2023 Eastern Conference semifinals series against the Philadelphia 76ers, who has the upper hand as the series heads to Philly for Games 3 and 4?

Did the 76ers make a tactical mistake by bringing star big man Joel Embiid back too soon? What options do the Sixers have after the 2023 Most Valuable Player looked a step slow and limited by his LCL knee sprain? Can they return to some of the small ball lineups that stung the Celtics in Game 1 without rocking the boat? Or do they plan to live and die with Embiid’s play in this series?
