This year, the opposition's starting SFs have posted 11.3 points per game (fewest in the NBA) against the Philadelphia 76ers, labeling this as a hard matchup for offensive production.The Hawks will likely see a decline in possessions in this contest from sharing the court with the 9th-slowest pace home team in the league over the last 5 games (the Philadelphia 76ers).The Hawks check in as the 5th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league as the visting team this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce additional chances for scoring and assists).The matchup vs. the 76ers is a challenging one for getting to the charity stripe; the opposition's starting SFs have attempted a lowly 1.5 free throws per game this year (least in the NBA).
