I do not feel confident in the Sixers at this very moment before they play Toronto this weekend and next week. I broke down the games Doc Rivers lost the Sixers a win in the defensive side of the zone. I explained why James Harden is struggling to find his shot on the offensive side in the zone. On the other hand, the Philadelphia Phillies showed promise against the A's. The pitching and hitting were complementing each other. Facing the New York Mets was a different story. The hitters for this Philadelphia team were swinging at pitches that weren't necessary to hit. They were swinging and missing a nasty breaking ball in the dirt in the middle of the plate. The pitchers kept on throwing and locating a nasty slider/curveball that showed movement on the left side of the plate at the end of each throw. A huge problem for the Phillies but it is good to see these issues early on now and not late into the season.
