Hey, guys, just a real quick note on today's podcast.

This podcast was recorded Thursday evening right before the game against the Orlando Magic.

I only bring this up because we will make references to quote-unquote last night's game,

to which we are referring to the Grizzlies game.

And then we'll make other random notes like, you know, team records and how many games are left.

So just understand that the blowout win over the Orlando Magic occurred after this podcast was recorded.

All right.

Thank you and enjoy the show. Welcome, everybody. This is Derek. I'm joined by Rich on the Sixers Beat, a part of the CLMS Media Network.

It's been a couple of weeks.

We considered doing one last week, had some travel to deal with, but we have to talk about your fourth place, Philadelphia 76ers.

How you doing, Rich?

I'm good, man.

There was a lot of those tweets last night.

The Philadelphia 76ers are now in fourth place tweets that are just going to get a ton of engagement

because people are so happy with their basketball team right now.

Forget about home court advantage for a second.

And make no mistake,

the decisive game at your home floor would be huge for a team that's lost one game in the building since December 21st.

But there's a psychological aspect to being a top four seat as well.

Like, these are the teams in the bottom half that squeaked in the playoffs, and these

are the teams that are legitimate.

And it's not rational.
