The Sixers followed their incredible Christmas day win by laying an absolute egg of a game against the Magic in Orlando. The team needs to move on and leave this depressing loss behind them. Staying in-state, the Sixers will travel from Orlando to Miami to face off against Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat.
The Sixers are currently fifth in the Eastern Conference but only on and a half games back of the second seed. The Heat are the third seed so this game is crucial. This will already be the third meeting between the two teams with the series currently being split 1-1.
