Is there any hope for the Sixers in Game 6? While I’m sure Kyle or Jason or Bob can and will give you the sports betting trends, I wanted to look at the what the Sixers have done following a loss this season.

All told, the Sixers had 31 regular season losses and have four thus far in the postseason. There are some encouraging signs that the team could step up and seize their moment tonight.

Results

The Sixers are 2-1 in the postseason following a loss, bringing them to 25-9 on the season in this statistic.

Interestingly enough, six of the Sixers’ 35 losses this season have come at the hands of the Raptors. For what it’s worth, the Sixers have only lost three straight games once this year (Gm. 77 at Dallas, Gm. 78 at Atlanta, Gm. 79 vs. Milwaukee). If they lose tonight, it will be only the second three-game losing streak this season.
