This week's oooooooof goes to the Philadelphia 76ers.
On Monday the Sixers hosted the San Antonio Spurs. The Spurs, not surprisingly, opted not to dress Tim Duncan and Kawhi Leonard, two of their best players. Manu Ginobili dressed but didn't set foot on the floor. Matt Bonner, yes, Matt Bonner, was the starting center. Now granted these are still the San Antonio Spurs and the Philadelphia 76ers, but with San Antonio resting their best players you would expect the score to be somewhat reasonable. It was not.
The Sixers scored 29 points in the first half to the Spurs 65. The Sixers managed 39 points in the second half and the Spurs let up just a little bit, resulting in a final score of 119-68. It probably could have been a lot worse. Tony Parker played just 16 minutes. LaMarcus Aldridge scored 26 points in just 21 minutes and didn't play a second in the 4th quarter. When you really break it down, the Spurs second unit beat the Sixers by 51 points, one of the most lopsided wins in NBA history. On the Sixers' own floor.
Oooooooof!
