The 76ers seem to be creatures of habit, and it’s not working well for them.
The Philadelphia 76ers have lost three of their last four games to drop to 5-3 on the season. While that is not nearly enough to make anyone following the team panic, fans cannot help but to think of the hypotheticals during their latest cold stretch, especially that which embroiled them in their recent choke job against the Chicago Bulls.
Entering the final frame, the 76ers seemed well on their way to secure their sixth win on the season, which would have been the picture-perfect scenario for them given that the Cavaliers were awaiting them on the second leg of a back-to-back.
