Something to think about when betting against the Sixers Monday night courtesy of Winners and Whiners:
Losing is beginning to take a toll on the Sixers’ locker room. All-Star center Joel Embiid wasn’t his typical joking self when speaking to the media after Friday’s 118-108 loss to the Rockets. The hilarious punch-lines were replaced with a rant on the impact four straight losses is having on the team.
“Losing four in a row sucks, and it doesn't feel like we’re getting better,” said Embiid, via ESPN’s Tim MacMahon. “So it is frustrating. ... I care about winning. It’s taking a toll on me. All I care about is winning. It sucks. We’ve got to find a way. I guess we’ve got to keep fighting.”
