Sixers have two hard games, that they’ll be underdogs, and two games that they should win.
Raptors technically will only be underdogs in one of the games, but playing against the heat twice. I think heat can probably win one of them.
Lets just win the games we should win, maybe steal one more, and hope the heat do something amazing for us
I swear every time in the last month I checked the raptors schedule it felt like they were facing the wizards, jazz, grizzlies, st Vincent st marys, a bunch of dudes at the local y, the wizards again, etc
Perhaps this organization could play all its healthy players the remaining four games to strive for a rest.
In charge of their own destiny. I still expect them to blow it though not gonna lie.
Wouldn’t be surprised if the Knicks tank their game intentionally to get the Raptors match up lol

>Per the Sixers:
>An MRI today confirmed that Cam Payne suffered a strained right hamstring during last night’s game vs. Detroit.
>Payne will be reevaluated in approximately two weeks.
Embiid isn’t on injury report.
3-1 should get it done. If the Raptors finish 4-0 then tip your cap and they deserve the 6 seed
Toronto barely having to travel seems like a massive advantage.
That Houston game looms large. SAS is an L, the two cupcakes are wins. It’s basically do or die against Houston. Assuming Toronto loses at least one of the last 4.
We should be able to beat Houston if we have a our full lineup. I’m actually nervous we’lll blow it to the Pacers if one of the stars is sitting
I don’t understand why people care so much. This team isn’t making a significant run because it can’t rebound and we can’t stay consistent enough shooting to ever make it anywhere besides a second round bounce at best.
2-2 and 2-2 is my prediction for both teams.
So we both we finish out the season with 2-2 records out of the 4 games so Sixers will have the 6th seed and probably play the Knicks first rd, I think we have a chance with them at full strength.
My guess is both teams go 2-2 and the tiebreaker saves us.
