Philadelphia at Denver

The Philadelphia 76ers continue to turn bad seasons into high draft position, but they don't seem to be making the progress they should. The Sixers are 7-24, and over the last three+ seasons have won a grand total of 54 games. The road resume is challenging the all-time worst in the NBA as they are 20-115 SU in their last 135 road games. They have lost an amazing 63 of those by 12 points or more. Denver is just 14-18 on the season, but their best basketball is being played right now, as they are 5-2 in their last seven games, and one of the losses was by a single point. They have the offense really clicking right now, averaging 116.2 points per game in their last seven. The altitude, up-tempo, and hot offense is a good scenario for taking down a big number, and they come in on no rest having played at altitude last night in Utah. Play on Denver.
