The news conference, Mike Gminski’s first as a 76er, was winding down. And now Gminski, just over in a trade from the Nets that day in January 1988, made a beeline for a rack of balls in the corner of the St. Joe’s gym, where the Sixers practiced at the time. Still in street clothes, he […]

As we get set to roll into the New Year, here’s a series of thoughts I have on the good ol’ Philadelphia 76ers as of late… The discourse around the minimum games played threshold is a joke So, as you’re all aware, the NBA implemented a rule a couple of years ago that players needed […]

Just a week ago, the Sixers were 16-11 and trending up in the standings. Joel Embiid dropped 39 points in a win over the Indiana Pacers, the most he’d scored since a Game 6 loss against the New York Knicks back in 2024. Paul George recorded a Sixers-high 35 points in a tight road loss […]

The Sixers have had their fair share of tough opponents this month. They’ve picked up some solid wins, including victories over the Warriors and Knicks, yet they’re now sitting on a three-game losing streak after their latest loss to the juggernaut that is the Oklahoma City Thunder following a valiant effort in the first half. […]

The Philadelphia 76ers have dropped their last three games and their next opportunity to get back in the win column comes Tuesday night when they take on the Memphis Grizzlies. This is their third game of a five-game road trip. As of Monday evening, Joel Embiid is listed as questionable for the contest due to […]

The All-Star break is fast approaching! Fan voting started just a few weeks ago, and now we have the first round of returns. As always, there are some surprises, some strange results, and some outright bad voting. Starting with the Eastern Conference, Milwaukee’s (?) Giannis Antetokounmpo leads the conference — which, in hindsight, is a […]

Last week, I posed the question — are the Sixers good? Well, in the time since, the team dropped three straight games to the Brooklyn Nets, Chicago Bulls and Oklahoma City Thunder. They’ve started a season-long, five-game road trip 0-2 (and the next three games are no picnic) and have a 16-14 record, which is […]

Well, that’s why you need to beat the Nets and the Bulls. The Oklahoma City Thunder handed the Sixers their third loss in a row when they fell 129-104 Sunday afternoon. Tyrese Maxey slowed down after a brilliant first quarter, leading the Sixers with 28 points, five assists and four steals shooting 10-of-18 from the […]

The Philadelphia 76ers are coming off arguably their worst two-game stretch of the season, a dreadful performance in a home loss to the Brooklyn Nets, and then a late-game collapse to see a victory slip through their fingers in Chicago. It would be nice if the Sixers had a soft landing spot coming up with […]

Philadelphia will be missing a big piece of its starting lineup when they square off against the defending champion Thunder Sunday afternoon in Oklahoma City. On Saturday evening, the Sixers designated Joel Embiid as out due to right knee injury management and a right ankle sprain. Paul George was listed as probable by the team, […]

At this point, calling Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and Paul George a “Big 3” is highly offensive to real trios of superstars that have taken the floor together for other teams. But that was at least what Daryl Morey and company envisioned when George signed with the team in the 2024 offseason. But that vision […]

Well, they got those three guys going, time to figure out the rest of the team. The Sixers, unable to provide any support to Joel Embiid, lost 108-102 to the Chicago Bulls Friday night. They’re now 0-4 when Tyrese Maxey, Paul George and Embiid all play. Embiid led all scorers with 31 points shooting 10-of-19 […]

Update, Dec. 26, 1:45 p.m. ET: VJ Edgecombe, Dominick Barlow and Quentin Grimes have all be upgraded to probable (illness). Joel Embiid (right knee injury management) remains questionable. Hopefully two days off was enough time for the Philadelphia 76ers to flush the memory of their last performance. The Sixers are back in action on Friday […]

A loss so bad it causes a roster transaction. Shortly after falling to the Brooklyn Nets, Tony Jones of the Athletic has reported that the Sixers will be signing MarJon Beauchamp to a two-way deal, and will be waiving Hunter Sallis in a corresponding move. Beauchamp has been in the Sixers’ organization since the preseason. […]

The Sixers gave their fans plenty of reasons to have problems with them, and it’s their turn to hear about it. Philadelphia laid an egg, falling 114-106 to the Brooklyn Nets Tuesday night, a game that certainly wasn’t as close as the final score indicates. Back after missing the last two games, Joel Embiid dropped […]
