Sixers Shooting For a Win

The Philadelphia 76ers will attempt to snap a 22-game losing streak tonight on the home floor with a game against New York. The Knicks are riding a seven-game winning streak in their attempt to clinch a playoff berth. The 22-game streak is a Philadelphia team record.

On the other side of the coin, the Indiana Pacers continue to lead the NBA's Eastern Conference with 50 wins and 18 defeats. The Pacers are home this evening to the Bulls while Miami, which is three games back of the Pacers in the East, are home to Memphis.

In the Western Conference race, the Spurs are looking, at the minimum, to maintain their slim 1 ½ game lead over the Thunder or improve on it. The Spurs are playing at Sacramento tonight while the Thunder, who beat Cleveland last night, are at Toronto. The Raptors have a 2 ½ game lead in the Atlantic Division over Brooklyn, which is home tonight to Boston.

The remaining games tonight have the Pelicans in Atlanta, the Mavericks home to Denver, Detroit at Phoenix and Washington in L.A. to play the Lakers.
