The Philadelphia 76ers broke their three game skid back in the friendly confines of South Philly. It felt like forever since we last heard that “Here They Come” song.
They beat Kyrie Irving, Luka Donu010diu0107 and the Dallas Mavericks 116-108 on Wednesday night. Doc Rivers’ gang is now 50-26. It’s the fourth time they’ve notched the 50 win mark over the last six seasons, and we won’t hold the two pandemic shortened campaigns against them. They were a one seed in 2021, winning an Eastern Conference best 49 games.
They’ve been consistently atop the standings in the Joel Embiid era thanks to the Cameroonian sensation’s sheer dominance.
