The Great Tebow Scare of 2015 has come and passed in Philadelphia, so now everyone in the city can focus on the sport that matters most this time of year: basketball! College fans are ecstatic over March Madness, NBA fans are ecstatic to see some of their favorite draft prospects in high stakes nationally televised games, and oh, there's a playoff chase in some cities and a tanking race in others. We're in the tanking race!
And this is a huge game because no matter what a result here hurts the Sixers in some capacity. Sixers win, not good, seeing as the Knicks, Timberwolves, and Lakers are racking up losses rather quickly. Sixers lose, means Boston wins, and Boston winning means they pass Miami and that's not good either because Miami is now out of the top 8 in the East and sitting with the 10th worst record in the league.
There will be negative consequences no matter happens tonight. Let's just hope what else happens in the coming month this turns out all right in the end.
