The 76ers have dropped nine straight games and I don’t see that changing here after three straight double-digit losses. It’s Bucks or pass.”

Kyle Lowry made his return from a hip injury in the 76ers' loss to the Knicks. He wanted to get back out there for the love of the game.

The Knicks have won three of their last five games by 15 points or more, covering twice as a double-digit favorite. Remember, that’s all without Brunson in the lineup, so there’s no need to adjust off of that. New York is simply blowing out bad teams as it tries to stay sharp and protect its playoff seeding.
