76ers win final game of the season vs Bucks, playing Magic in 7/8 Eastern Conference Play-In!
So I had a rough time making this seemingly simple Sixers graphic. It's not that great but it's better than nothing! I figure it's decently informative. I like steal stats too but couldn't fit them and I'm already running insanely late. The stats for steals for the Sixers in 2025/26 was:
- Tyrese Maxey - 1.9 SPG
- Paul George - 1.7 SPG
- V.J. Edgecombe/Kelly Oubre Jr. tied - 1.4 SPG (Edgecombe is ranked third so perhaps he's slightly higher by some small unseen decimal I'm not sure but meh, I consider it a tie)
Anyway the Sixers took care of business against the Bucks on Sunday in their final game of the season. Unfortunately they couldn't quite make the sixth seed but they did manage to grab the seventh which actually isn't bad. They get to play the 7/8 Play-In game at home AND if they were to lose they would play the 8 seed game at home as well.
I thought this Play-In Tournament was kinda dumb at first but I actually think it's pretty clever. It adds a lot of excitement to the playoffs. Technically these aren't playoff games but I think in time it will be seen as playoff games among the fans. These are too intense and highly consequential.
Yeah the Magic are a tough team for sure but the Sixers found solid success against them this season. Even without Embiid I think this is a very winnable game. Frankly I think the Sixers still have a competitive roster in general for these playoffs. There's always a miracle Embiid comes back.
Yesterday's initial Play-In games were awesome. The Hornets defeated the Heat in thrilling fashion and the Trail Blazers also won a thriller versus the Suns. The Suns are still alive while the Heat are done.
If the Sixers win tonight they'll see the Celtics in the opening round of the Playoffs. That will be a very tough series but it's not totally impossible. It's that or the Pistons if they were to beat the Hornets if the Sixers lose tonight. So it's going to be a tough opening round regardless.
It's game seven baby!! That's the mentality!! Even if they can't win it all this year hopefully the Sixers win tonight for a taste of glory and spotlight and memories made.
LET'S GOOOOOO!!!!!!
