The 76ers had another negative night … depending on who you ask. For those wanting them to reach the postseason, Monday night’s loss to the Chicago Bulls could be a detriment. The Sixers missed out on an opportunity to clinch the season’s series over the Bulls following the 142-110 decision at the Wells Fargo Center.

If Monday night was any indication, the Philadelphia 76ers are down and out.

A win over the Chicago Bulls, who entered the contest with a lead of 1.5 games over the Sixers for the final play-in spot, would have gone a long way for Philadelphia. Instead, the Bulls jumped on the Sixers early and led by double-digits in the first quarter.
