Only five games remain for the Philadelphia 76ers in this 2024-25 season. The finish line is in sight. Sure, everyone else crossed the finish line a while ago and are sitting comfortably in the grass enjoying a post-race banana, but it will still feel like an accomplishment to run through the tape. The Sixers are sure rounding that final turn in style.
Thanks to a current 10-game losing streak, the Sixers chances’ of having more lottery combinations than the Brooklyn Nets seems all but assured. The Nets have two more wins than the Sixers at the moment, and given the current rate of things, it would take (performs a quick calculation) 17 months for Philadelphia to catch them.
