The Philadelphia Sixers have been the best team in the NBA. After starting the season 7-1, they are now facing critique that they have not faced an actual contender yet. Joel Embiid has been front-running the MVP race, as newcomers Seth Curry and Danny Green have been playing their roles perfectly.
Fear not though, naysayers, as the Sixers will get a challenging test tonight. Up next, the Philadelphia 76ers (7-1) will take on the Brooklyn Nets (4-4). Thursday night at 7:30 PM. Coverage will begin at 7 p.m. on NBC Sports Philadelphia, with radio coverage on 97.
