For a half on Wednesday, Miami's zone defense flustered the 76ers and prompted boos from the Philadelphia crowd.
Then a hot run from 3 and a free chicken promotion sparked the 76ers and their crowd as Philadelphia rallied from a 14-point deficit to a 105-104 win over the Heat in the NBA play-in tournament.
With the win, the 76ers advance as the No. 7 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs to face the No. 2 seed New York Knicks in the first round. The loss puts the Heat in Friday's play-in elimination game against either the Chicago Bulls or Atlanta Hawks.
