Oh, Sixers
Interest in Philadelphia 76ers basketball is as low as its been in years – hard to believe for a team that's about to make the Playoffs, and it's because of the mediocrity in which they conduct themselves with year-after-year.
With four games remaining in the regular season – all on the road – the Sixers own a three game lead on the Milwaukee Bucks for the final Playoff spot, and they trail the Knicks by one game for the seven seed. Depending on how the final games play out, the Sixers will either play the Bulls or the Heat in the first round – whom they are 1-6 against this season, and 0-5 in their last five.
The Sixers only game this weekend will be played at Bankers Life Fieldhouse, where they'll take on the Pacers. They've lost their last two against Indiana.
