Sixers Get Their First Road Win During The Death Stretch


It’s extremely difficult to get all Sixers fans to agree on something these days. Except for THIS: the 20 point win on the road against the Pacers was the most impressive win on the year.

It was a fantastic first road win on the Death Stretch™️ for the Sixers. They’ve been on a heater this week and the timing could not be more perfect.

If you’ve had been obsessively following the Eagles and left your toxic relationship with the Sixers, their upcoming schedule is going to be hell:

45 Tue, Jan 15, 2019 7:00p Box Score Minnesota Timberwolves W 149 107 29 16 W 2
46 Thu, Jan 17, 2019 7:00p @ Indiana Pacers
47 Sat, Jan 19, 2019 3:30p Oklahoma City Thunder
48 Mon, Jan 21, 2019 8:00p Houston Rockets
49 Wed, Jan 23, 2019 8:00p San Antonio Spurs
50 Sat, Jan 26, 2019 9:00p @ Denver Nuggets
51 Tue, Jan 29, 2019 10:30p @ Los Angeles Lakers
52 Thu, Jan 31, 2019 10:30p @ Golden State Warriors
53 Sat, Feb 2, 2019 10:00p @ Sacramento Kings
54 Tue, Feb 5, 2019 8:00p Toronto Raptors
55 Fri, Feb 8, 2019 7:00p Denver Nuggets
56 Sun, Feb 10, 2019 3:30p Los Angeles Lakers
57 Tue, Feb 12, 2019 8:00p Boston Celtics

This is the main reason I brought you here. I am officially naming these 13 games (11 left) The Death Stretch™️.

I am going to beat this to death until it is a thing. Even if it takes all 13 games. I know these next few weeks could make or break this core roster. It’s basically playoff basketball, but before March Madness starts. Things may go awry, or they may go 12-1 and beat the Warriors. But only one thing is certain, Death Stretch will be a thing by the end of it.
