Chicago led by eight early in the contest, but an 18-4 run put the 76ers in front by the end of the opening period. Philadelphia then held the Bulls to 11 points in the third quarter and took a 20-point advantage into the final 12 minutes.
Iguodala had nine rebounds and four assists while Jrue Holliday added 17 points for the 76ers. Philadelphia's bench players combined to score 50 points and the 76ers limited Chicago to 43 percent shooting.
