Whether the Sixers were trying to lose or not, they sure did so in a big way against a bad and shorthanded Bulls team.

The Sixers’ effort was abysmal to start the game before a late comeback attempt was thwarted by buzzer-beating offensive rebound.

The Sixers came out of the break relatively healthy but it didn’t matter as they got absolutely steamrolled on their home court by the defending champion Celtics.

Paul George scored just two points as the Sixers went into the break with another abysmal loss to the Nets.

Tyrese Maxey had his worst game of the season and Joel Embiid struggled down the stretch as the Sixers lost to a bad Raptors team at home.

The Sixers kept pace in the first half but were played off the floor by the Giannis-less Bucks in the second half of yet another disturbing loss.

The Sixers had their Big 3 active but it didn’t matter as they fell down by as many as 34 in a mostly lifeless loss to the Pistons.
