\"\"The Philadelphia 76ers are having a ball<\/a> as they registered their 15th consecutive win this season<\/strong> with a 121-113<\/em> victory over the Atlanta Hawks<\/strong> on April 10. The 76ers are a step closer to securing their place as the number 3 seed in the Eastern Conference with the Cleveland Cavaliers<\/a> in fourth place.<\/p>\n

The 76ers went into the game on Tuesday night with a 14-0<\/em> streak and knew that they needed to secure one more win to set a new franchise record. They were the favourites as the Hawks have had a terrible season and have long been eliminated from the playoffs. The match was close at times but in the end the 76ers had too much power in both defense and offense for the Hawks to overcome. The Hawks finished their season with a 24-58 record which is their worst season performance since 2005.<\/p>\n

The Atlanta Hawks<\/a> found it difficult to stop JJ Redick<\/strong> who scored 28 points which included 6 out of 9 shots from beyond the 3 point arc. Former Hawks players Marco Belinelli<\/strong> and Ersan Ilyasova<\/strong> also had great night against their old franchise and scored 20 and 26 points respectively.<\/p>\n
