Atlanta after their win in overtime against Toronto, is in a strong position against the other rivals for the 8th position of the East. Philadelphia is in 7th position and they are trying to move as higher as they can.

Atlanta is 4 games ahead of New Jersey and Indiana and they are in a pretty good form lately. They've won 5 straight for the first time this season and they are heading to the playoffs for the first time after 9 years.

Philadelphia is in a pretty good form as they've won at New Jersey. They are a young, talented team that is trying to outscore opponents in fast breaks. They are playing in a fast tempo with lots of steals.
