Despite being a random Saturday afternoon in February, today's game is a big one boys & girls. Both teams desperately need this win, but if we are talking in terms of desperation i would expect Philly, losers of 2 straight, to come out with a bit more.
When these teams met in Philly a few weeks ago, I talked about Philly's lack of depth, and then their bench came out and owned us, outscoring the Heat 41-21. Also in that game our defense was terrible. Instead of geting bodies in front of the quick moving Philly offense, there was a lot of hacking and reaching going on, which led to the Sixers going 30-of-36 from the line.
Heat Home Record: 17-10 (lost 2)
Sixers Road Record: 10-14
