Sixers finish season with a win

At least the Sixers were able to finish their regular season on a high note. Even though they'd wrapped up a playoff berth, they went on a dismal 5-game losing streak leading up to Wednesday night's game in Cleveland. Somehow they managed to win that game, clawing their way back to a tie at the end of regulation and then winning by 1 point in OT. I'm not sure how much of a confidence booster that was, but it sure has to be better than ending the season on a 6-game skid. The Sixers also ended up the season right at 500, with a record of 41-41. They'll take on the Magic in the first round of the playoffs, and that should prove to be quite a challenge. Orlando won their division with a 59-23 record, third best in their division behind only the Celtics and Cavs. So they'll host the Sixers Sunday evening and again on Wednesday before heading to Philly to continue the series.
