Triskaidekaphobia and tiebreaker scenarios for tonight's Cavs-Sixers matchup

OK, get over your triskaidephobia. No reason to feel like 13 is an unlucky number. Heck, back in the day, Wilt Chamberlain had it as his jersey number. If the Sixers can defeat LeBron James and the Cavs tonight at the Wells Fargo Center, the NBA's longest winning streak will jump to 13 games. And since we have already mentioned Wilt, it is worth noting that he was the only player in team history to accumulate 1,200 points, 600 rebounds and 600 assists in a season until Ben Simmons came along.
