The Sixer Sense Podcast welcomes back Noah Levick from NBC Sports Philadelphia to talk about recent developments related to the Sixers. The initial topic is the last game Philly played in Indiana.

Lucas, Chris, and Noah offer their assessment of what went wrong in the final moments of a game where the Sixers had hopes of clinching the number seed.  We dive into the positives from a tough loss on the road that saw multiple Sixers, like Joel Embiid, Shake Milton, and Furkan Korkmaz, not suit up due to injury or illness.

The following topic revolves around the news of several key players from other teams in the Eastern Conference. How does Jaylen Brown and Victor Oladipo’s absence affect a possible series versus the 76ers? Will Brooklyn’s stars be healthy enough to give the Sixers a full challenge? We discuss these players and more in this segment.

Next, the trio go into the great news of the Wells Fargo opening up to more fans.  We predict how the Sixers will respond to having full capacity in their home stadium during the postseason. If the 76ers secure home court advantage, this shift back to normality should benefit Philadelphia.

The Sixer Sense Podcast then jumps into some interesting statistics that the team has produced in the past season. We look into almost every team category when it comes to scoring, defense, turnovers, and more. Most important, we analyze what these statistics could mean when it comes to the playoffs.

The final topic is part of a poll that we posted on social media. We asked fans who they thought had a better career, Russell Westbrook or Allen Iverson. The responses from the podcast members might surprise you.  Listen to find out!
