Playoff picture: Philadelphia 76ers can’t afford to slip up during final stretch

As we wait and see how far Villanova can get within the match, we even have the Sixers within the remaining stretch. However they appear to have forgotten it is time to step on the fuel.

After an unbelievable debut by James Harden with the crew going unbeaten in his first 5 video games, they’ve proven they’re fallible.

Their 29 level loss to Harden’s outdated crew, the Nets, induced a lot to push the panic button.

The Beard? Not fairly “Large Recreation James.” Actually, he has a status of not exhibiting up after they rely probably the most.

In two video games final week, he was simply 8 for 36 from the sector.

Getting into Wednesday, the Sixers have 15 video games left, three of these are again to again. You’d assume Joel Embiid and Harden will not play in all of these.

On the one hand, these guys want extra video games collectively to proceed to construct the chemistry they confirmed of their first 5. On the opposite, they want relaxation to remain wholesome in the event that they’re gonna make a championship run.

However in a convention by which the No.2 seed and the No. 4 seed are separated by a mere recreation, the Sixers cannot afford to slide up. The remainder of March must be maddening for positive.
