Sixers and other stuff for NBC Sports Philadelphia. MJ = GOAT. Duke is not a Blue Blood.

Shaping up to be a disastrous afternoon for the ACC unless Clemson wakes up

When they build the statues outside Chase Center, Klay’s should be his shooting form, Steph should be doing night night and Draymond should have his arms outstretched arguing a foul he obviously committed

In my 20 years of enjoying basketball this is one of the worst takes I've ever seen.

There’s one simple solution to fix tanking in the NBA. All 30 teams get the same odds in the draft lottery every year. No more incentives to lose and no more being scared to end up in the dreaded middle of the pack and lose any chance of getting elite talent in the draft.

Josh Sweat was a heck of a 4th round pick back in 2018.

He ended up playing in 104 games (64 starts) with the Eagles in seven seasons. His 43 sacks rank 8th all-time in franchise history. And he went out with a 2 1/2-sack performance in Super Bowl LIX.

Duke is going to destroy Carolina. Could not conceive of a worse matchup with Duke’s size and UNC’s lack of it. Malauch, Flagg and Brown are going to play volleyball on the glass.

Just simulated the lottery three times on @tankathon.bsky.social. Sixers got the #4 pick twice and came up 10th once (pick to OKC). Still stunning this is where we are, but 15-22 is 15-22.

DeAndre Jordan fouls on almost every play at this point

This is pretty good

Defense is awful right now but probably just a blip

Some hope for the Sixers on a cold, windy morning. Per
@Sportradar, 12 NBA teams have made the playoffs after starting 5-15 or worse through 20 games.

Most recently: 2021-22 Pelicans

Great note from Rockets PR:

Last two teams with Top-4 picks in 4 straight years:

2014-17 Sixers: Embiid, Okafor, Simmons & Fultz

2021-2024 Rockets: Green, Smith, Thompson & Sheppard

The Clippers often feel better than the sum of their parts. Ty Lue is legit.

Joel Embiid is not himself right now, not even close. Evidence: 0 FT attempts midway through the 3rd.
