After a dismal season performance by the Philadelphia Sixers, they begin their off-season begins with the NBA Draft Lottery. The Sixers have had a decent amount of success in the lottery over the past 2 decades, but they have not been able to put these high draft picks together and win a championship. Some of […]

Despite what has been a VERY disappointing season for the Sixers, the very, very near future can “shine bright like a diamond” for this Philly squad. I don’t need to explain why the Sixers have had a “cloudy with a chance” season with all of the focus on the Andrew Bynum saga. But with an […]

The Philadelphia Sixers (26-40) escaped in what was a nail-biter against the Portland Trail Blazers (31-35). Doug Collins went with the a starting lineup that involved Damien Wilkins. This decision seemed questionable, but after Wilkins started the game 4-4 with 8 points, no one doubted Collins’ decision. The Sixers were also looking to win the […]

The Philadelphia Sixers (25-40) played host to the Eastern Conference’s 2nd-seeded Indiana Pacers (40-26). On paper, the Pacers are the much better team; they have talented bigs in David West and Roy Hibbert and an athletic All-Star in Paul George. They are also one of the only teams who serious threats to the Heat. The […]

This script is probably familiar to you. The Sixers play well in the first three quarters. They are leading or trailing by a couple points with just 12 minutes to go. You are hoping that the Sixers would be able to hold on in the fourth quarter and come up with a win. In the […]

Let us go back to August 10, 2012. The 76ers pulled the trigger by trading for Andrew Bynum who was considered the 2nd-best center in the NBA behind Dwight Howard. It wasn’t cheap at all. The 76ers had to give up a very good all-around player in Andre Iguodala and a couple of players on […]

Q: Who should the Sixers keep next season? A: The only players worth keeping are All-Star point guard Jrue Holiday, forward Thaddeus Young, and rising forward Arnett Moultrie. Although he has only a rookie, Moultrie has great potential and the Sixers cannot afford to have a player like him go. This already happened to them with […]

Dear Doug Collins, You’ve already made Sixers management think a talented, first-round big man is worse than he is. Please don’t do that again. Last year the Sixers selected Nikola Vucevic with the 16th overall pick. Vucevic is a 6’10″ center out of USC who is playing like a top 5 center on the Orlando […]

The Philadelphia 76ers (22-29) have under-achieved this season thus far, but they are without star center Andrew Bynum, which gives them somewhat of an excuse. Nevertheless, they just have not been able to get it done. The Sixers have been inconsistent and they cannot manage to keep games close when they’re down. This season, only 2 […]
