PHILADELPHIA—If there is one point on which Dwane Casey is inflexible, it’s that he never underestimates an opponent, regardless of record, resume or roster.
The Raptors coach brings it up all the time, constantly harping on the fact his team can take no opponent lightly, and he was at it again here Thursday night.
He spoke of the healthy regard he has for the Philadelphia 76ers, no matter their 14-16 record and eight losses in 10 games, including four in a row.
“I don’t have empathy for, or feel sorry for, any team in this league,” Casey said.
