Spurs aim to give winless Sixers respect
Certainly, the Philadelphia 76ers could pull off an upset tonight in Oklahoma City. After all, David once slew Goliath.
Barring that, however, the Sixers will roll into the AT&T Center on Saturday night winless at 0-9. It wouldn’t be the first time Philadelphia arrived in San Antonio looking to ward off a losing streak.
Two seasons ago, the 76ers had lost 24 in a row heading into a date with the Spurs, who promptly made it 25 straight with a 113-91 decision. Three nights later, Philly matched an NBA record in Houston, losing their 26th straight, before snapping the skid in Detroit.
