Philadelphia at New York

After five straight losing seasons, some dreadful, the Philadelphia 76ers are coming of age at 36-30 and should be a playoff team this season. There have been a lot of injuries and setbacks along the way, but some top tier draft picks are starting to make some noise. Meanwhile in New York, once again the Knicks are a bad team at 24-44 on the season. Not only are they a bad team, but they appear to be a bad team that has quit. The Knicks are a woeful 1-16 SU in their last 17, losers of seven straight contests. Perhaps worse than that is that New York is losing those games by an average of 13 points per game. The Knicks are just 1-19 SU on the road this season vs. a team with a winning record, losing by 13.6 ppg. Play on Philadelphia.
