Sixers Embarrass Themselves in front of Millions

Sixers Embarrass Themselves in front of Millions

Tonight the Sixers completely embarrassed themselves in front of an audience of millions by losing to the Lakers at home, who were 7.5 point dogs. The home team, coming off of a disappointing loss to the not-good-at-all Suns at home, had 3 days to rest and prepare for this not-good-either Lakers team in a nationally televised game. Given these circumstances, they really should have won. Instead, Embiid and crew under-performed and taught the millions of basketball fans watching worldwide that the Process still has a long way to go.

The Philadelphia 76ers fly to Cleveland next where they will be the underdog, likely in the +15-20 point range. Given the way they've been playing lately, I'd pick Cleveland to cover handily.

McClung Brings Sixers First Champion in 41 Years

Image
 The 2023 NBA Dunk Contest was one for the ages, and I couldn't be prouder of Mac McClung for taking home the title. The young guard out of Texas put on an incredible display of athleticism and creativity, showcasing his vertical leap and ability to soar through the air. McClung, who had previously gained national attention for his high-flying dunks in high school and college, came into the contest as a relative unknown in the NBA. However, he quickly made a name for himself with his first dunk of the night, a stunning leap-frog board tap reverse that brought the crowd to its feet. From there, McClung only got better. He showed off his versatility with a series of dunks that included windmill slams, double-pump reverses, more 360s. His final dunk of the night, a soaring 540-spin two-handed slam, sealed the victory and cemented his status as a rising star in the NBA. What impressed me most about McClung's performance was his fearlessness. He attacked the rim with a relentless en...

RIP Kobe

Need to take a break from Sixers to honor the man Kobe Bryant, tragically passing away yesterday with his 13-year-old daughter Gianna and seven others in a freak helicopter crash. I remember in 6th grade, sitting on the bleachers of my middle school gymnasium waiting for class to start and my gym teacher discussing with other students about Kobe taking Brandi to the prom. This memory is etched into my brain, before I was really that interested in pro basketball beyond what the Bulls were doing. Really, this was in 1996 when the Sixers were terrible and Allen Iverson was still a year away from getting drafted. But I knew about Kobe, despite Brandi being a much bigger celebrity at the time. Fast forward to 2001, and Kobe was the villain. Our hometown hero had vanquished his hometown, fully embracing his Angeleno status. He took advantage of his star acumen to get to LA, gaming the draft system so he could get traded there no matter who drafted him. He was young, cocky, aloof. He had ...

Ben Simmons Punk'd Us All

Image
 I haven't updated this since the start of COVID so alot has changed since my last post. However one thing remains the same -- the Sixers are still Championshipless. And Ben Simmons is on the way out. Let's talk about this for a minute. Ben Simmons represents a lot of what's wrong with the NBA. Namely, a 25-year-old kid is making $200 million and everyone's upset at him for acting spoiled. Let me tell you something about having $200 million. Oh wait, never mind, let me not because neither I, nor most of you my dear readers, will ever come close to sniffing that kind of money in our lifetimes (no matter how much bitcoin you own). The dude is loaded. He's an incredible talent that can't quite hack it yet in the bigs. Maybe he never will. But good lord, you earn that kind of dough, you play scared in front of millions of people, you WILL get flamed. You deserve to get flamed.  Does Simmons gotta leave Philly, NOW? Yes, absolutely. Is he a bonafide fraud? I don'...
