Well the Sixers finally bounced back Saturday after their two ugly losses prior. They handled the Nets with absolute ease. The game was so easy in fact that a lot of key guys got to rest and a lot of other bench/depth guys got some extra minutes. Sure it was the Nets but I'll take a Sixers victory any day of the week! It's been a rocky season and so it just feels nice to watch some winning. Their victory over the Nets gave the Sixers a 4-2 record during that road stretch.
It's good the Sixers managed to get that win quick because the Suns are in town this evening and while the Suns are underachieving they're still full of talent with Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Bradley Beal. Durant is obvious, but perhaps when it's all said and done all three of those guys will be Hall of Famers someday. The Suns have lost four straight but that just makes them all the more dangerous.
Basketball is an indoor sport, and admittedly the Suns were just in Indiana but, still hopefully the climate difference from Phoenix to Philly will bother the Suns a bit. The Philly area is absolutely freezing lately and a mild amount of snow just swept through the area. Hopefully this home court advantage will indeed be an advantage.
It will be nice to see that Sixers logo again and see a bunch of Sixers fans in the stands. The Sixers have officially completed forty percent of their season! Time surely does fly. It's REALLY time to start stacking wins here. I want to see the Sixers get their fifteenth tonight!
