The "76'ers" are whole, have won their last two, including today's immaculate victory in Boston, and are 7-3 in their last ten.
The Male Deer have also W2 and are 7-3.
Manny Hatty, W5, 8-2.
Out West, the Lakers won at Golden State, an important game, an important marker.
Miami is what they always have been and always will be. No change there.
The Association is hard. It is hard on the players and coaches physically, emotionally, and mentally. It's an 82-game torture track, and then the top half get to play more games in the playoffs. The champion and runner-up will play 100. You start the season and you stare down that barrel and it is daunting and must cause panic at what could befall you and your team. To me, it's the greatest test of endurance and sustained excellence, of WILL in sport.
