Maybe they should be called the 74ers.
The Sixers did not exactly live up to their name last night, managing just 74 points as they fell to lowly Oklahoma City. I didn’t even know they had an NBA franchise in the Sooner State. Apparently neither did the Sixers. They didn’t show up, getting trounced 89-74.
After starting the road trip with a solid win over the Grizzlies in Memphis, the Sixers were simply dreadful on the second half of back-to-back road contests.
Try this number out for size. It has now been five years since the Sixers won two straight road games. Half a decade. Not good.
They have now lost seven of 10 since the All-Star break.
This team has first-round exit written all over it. Of course that’s assuming they don’t completely implode and miss the playoffs altogether.
