Sixers pick up another W

The Sixers are back from their road trip out west, and last night they hosted the T'wolves. I was able to catch part of the game on the radio before going to bed, and the Sixers had a decent lead (about 11 points), but Minnesota was playing well. Rodney Carney had a hot hand and drained quite a few 3-pointers. But ultimately the Sixers pulled away, outscoring their opponent in both the third and fourth quarters. They trailed 43-37 at halftime but came away with the win, 96-88. Things are looking very good for the Sixers at this point. They have a solid record of 37-33 and have just about wrapped up second place in their division. Unfortunately, the trio of Orlando, Cleveland, and Boston will be waiting in the playoffs. Whichever team the Sixers have to play will be tough.
