It’s one regular season game.

The Sixers will be fine.

It's not one regular season game. Last month they lost at home to Boston by how many? 

50. At home. National TV. Further, even while they've been winning recently, their defense has been horrid. Routinely giving up between 60-75 points in the first half of games. You simply will not get away with that against good teams. 

The Sixers are a good team but far from elite. They will bow out in the 2nd round.

So i guess I'll take it on the chin. If this materializes it will be our biggest snowfall of the season.

Here is the CTP forecast discussion this morning

“160+KT jetlet moving poleward as the deep upper trough advances
will deepen the moisture and a sfc low bombs out as it develops
along the north-south sfc trough which moves overhead tonight.
Temperatures will drop into the upper teens by Sat sunrise in
the NW as the low pulls in the cold air from the NW. The light
precip (rain/snow) in the evening will spread across the area,
turning to all snow before midnight for the NW half, and around
sunrise Sat in Harrisburg. The change then happens quickly for
Lancaster. Expect the heaviest snow rates to occur from 12-18Z
Sat, and mainly in the central and NE mountains. Many locations
will have >=1"/hr rates for part of that time period.

There has been a cooler trend with a slightly more-easterly
track/solution with the past few mdl cycles. This puts Central
PA into the bullseye for the heaviest snow. Newest NAM and some
CAMs produce greater snow amounts over the SErn counties on Sat
than before. This has necessitated that a winter storm watch be
posted for the southern mountains and Lower Susq. The rest of
the area should see around 6 inches or more, and a widespread
warning has been posted elsewhere. Highest amounts should be
over the NE where the snow lasts longest and the favorable jet
dynamics create good banding.

The wind will crank up, and get close to advy criteria as the
low scoots just SE of the state, crossing DE and riding up the
NJ/NY coasts. That storm track is typically a favorable track
for heavy snow in the central mtns. The wind will just create
more problems as it begins to get strong as the snow is just
peaking in intensity.”
