Yes, we need to discuss the Jared McCain trade again
The vibes for the Philadelphia 76ers are at a low point for the season. The team has lost six of their last nine games, Paul George is about halfway through a league drug policy-related suspension, and Joel Embiid is currently missing time with an oblique injury. Losses to Boston and San Antonio this week looked […]
VJ Edgecombe out vs. Jazz with lumbar contusion, to be reevaluated later in the week

NBC’s retro broadcast was a welcomed wave of nostalgia
On Tuesday night, NBC flashed back to the 1990s and the result was more entertaining than any episode of Friends I’ve seen.

Well, that was embarrassing
Another smashing success for the Sixers on national television. Philadelphia was trounced 131-91 by the San Antonio Spurs Tuesday night.

VJ Edgecombe will not return vs. Spurs
As if things weren’t going poorly enough, the Sixers will play the second half vs. the Spurs without VJ Edgecombe.

Familiar issues haunt Sixers with Joel Embiid out
At the NBA trade deadline, the Sixers only subtracted from their roster. They moved Jared McCain and Eric Gordon and received no NBA player in return.

Maxey has his whole career in front of him, one that hopefully includes […]
Tyrese Maxey is setting the standard for VJ Edgecombe — and the rookie is more than meeting it
Understandably, everyone in the Sixers’ orbit would like to forget the 2024-25 season. Murphy’s Law ruled the day as a team with championship aspirations only managed to win 24 games. But it’s always darkest before the dawn. Sure, last season was miserable — in fact, if there’s a word stronger than miserable, it was that […]
