Charlotte at Philadelphia

There have been a lot of games since the Philadelphia 76ers have won four out of their last five games. But, there are signs that this team may finally be reaping some of the benefits of being at the top of the draft the last few years. Their win in their last game gives them 11 on the season, topping all of last year. The Hornets on the other hand, have been an up-and-down team all season, and that is pretty typical of a .500 team. They are in the midst of poor play right now, collecting just a single win in their last six games. One of the reasons why is the fact that they have quit on the defensive end, allowing 114.8 points per game in the six-game dive. Philadelphia is as confident as they have been all season, and in a good spot tonight. Play on Philadelphia.
