The Sixers played a depleted San Antonio Spurs lineup on Wednesday and allowed the visitors to hang in there until the end during a 112-106 victory. This time, the Sixers learned their lesson. They started out on fire, and never took their foot off the gas in Friday’s convincing victory over the Pistons. Detroit wasn’t nearly as depleted (or anywhere near as talented) as San Antonio, but the Pistons were without point guard Reggie Jackson, who missed his fourth straight game with a sprained right ankle. The Sixers jumped out to a 32-15 first quarter lead and never were in danger the rest of the game.
