Time will tell if the Sixers were right to move on from Jared McCain
For several weeks earlier this season, Jared McCain had a copy of the book “The Inner Game of Tennis” in his locker. According to the Amazon.com summary, the 1972 work by W.

The Sixers’ biggest bit of business at the trade deadline was also their most surprising. The team sent second-year guard Jared McCain to the Oklahoma City Thunder for draft compensation.

Sixers ownership lets down Joel Embiid (again)
Joel Embiid has been through a lot since the Philadelphia 76ers drafted him in 2014. He has dealt with tragedy in his personal life, disappointments in his professional life, and too many injuries to list concisely. This year, however, things have looked up. Say what you will about how Joel may have treated his conditioning […]

The Sixers will let the Oklahoma City Thunder have another promising young sharpshooter. Jared McCain is being traded to the Thunder for a first-round pick (Houston’s 2026 first) and three second-rounders, per ESPN’s Shams Charania. Just, what a bummer after last season.

Just don’t duck the tax, Sixers
The headline here speaks for itself. Heading into Thursday’s trade deadline, I simply implore the Philadelphia 76ers not to make ducking the luxury tax their priority. Now, you might say that this post is true Negadelphian: complaining about something that hasn’t even happened yet. But when something happens every year to the point where Joel […]

What if the Sixers do nothing at the trade deadline?
Perhaps I have just been stuck in a negative feedback loop when it comes to this franchise for the last half-dozen years, but I am bracing myself for a rather unspectacular NBA trade deadline for the Sixers. I can’t foresee a scenario where the Sixers part with beloved rookie VJ Edgecombe for superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, […]

So, which players should the Sixers call the Jazz, Grizzlies about?
It’s the Tuesday ahead of Thursday’s NBA trade deadline and we’ve already got a blockbuster. No, not Giannis Antetokounmpo or James Harden. This one involved a Memphis Grizzlies star … but not Ja Morant. Jaren Jackson Jr. is shockingly being sent to the Utah Jazz. ESPN’s Shams Charania was the first to report the full […]
