That one was ugly.

Come to think of it, most of them haven’t been pretty.

Despite that, the Philadelphia 76ers are now rolling on a five-game win streak after defeating the Toronto Raptors 104-101 in overtime Monday night to move to 17-12 on the season.

It was a tale of two halves for the Sixers on offense. In the first, even the bench unit was stellar on offense and put up 25 straight bench points to lead the hosts to a 57-46 lead at the break. For the first time in what feels like forever, the Sixers bench unit was actually fun to watch.
