PHILADELPHIA -- The 76ers needed nine players to score to beat the Warriors -- and top the Big Dipper.

 

Lou Williams scored 25 points, and Elton Brand had 14 points and 14 rebounds to lead Philadelphia to a 105-83 victory over Golden State on Friday in the 50th anniversary of Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point game.

 

The Sixers topped 100 points for the first time in 20 games on the night they paid tribute to the record Chamberlain set for the Philadelphia Warriors against the New York Knicks on March 2, 1962, at the Hershey Sports Arena.

 

"All right, so we got more than a hundred. We beat Wilt," said Brand, laughing.

 

The Sixers gave fans pieces of the court and honored Chamberlain's sisters and former teammates during a halftime ceremony.

 

On that memorable night, Chamberlain scored 41 points by halftime and 69 points through three quarters. The Sixers had 50 points at the break and 75 points through three on Friday.

 

Chamberlain's single-game scoring record -- yet again -- was never in jeopardy. David Lee had 24 points and 15 rebounds for Golden State, and Monta Ellis scored 20 points. Stephen Curry (foot) sat out.
