Not much of a reach for a team with as much talent as any team in the league, and the hardest place in the league for opposing teams to get a win.


There are only 3 teams in the NBA with a worse road record than the 76ers, and you don't have home court advantage ....

I'd like to know why you feel optimistic?

genuinely

We'll have home court come playoff time, don't worry about that.

And every series gives us 3 home games, and stealing one on the road is reasonable.

So any series will be competitive against the Sixers, because you KNOW they're going to defend home court.

So you think it's a guarantee that they will win every home game?
But even though they're awful on the road, it's reasonable to assume they can steal road games?

God damned you're on the good stuff today Sean.

Tell me more




Not to mention, your team is going to exceed the salary cap just with 4 players next year, Richardson is going to opt out in 2 years, and then what? can't resign him
Can't get any free agents worth a damn, your team is going to literally have to poach for scrubs to fill the roster slots, your franchise is run so poorly....

If you think we are worried about 2 years from now....lol

As I've said before, there are a lot of issues but this team is built far better for the playoffs than they are for the regular season marathon. As we all know the playoffs are a completely different beast, and having the best record rarely means shit just ask the teams that have had the best record in the East the last several seasons 🤷‍♂️
