I feel like the Sixers are finally getting ahead of their competition to make a real championship run thanks to Morey’s moves, Nurse’s system, and obviously the incredible improvement of Embiid and Maxey.
It’s felt like for years the team is not as good as the top tier teams, but also we don’t have the assets to load up with more.
Post-Harden trade we seem just as good if not better than last year, and while that may not be enough to win on its own, the other contenders in the East have already shot their wads to get Dame, KP, Jrue, etc. This is the first time the team feels like a contender and we still have moves to make. Feels good!
What are we getting ahead of, not even halfway thru November yet? It’s a looong season let’s give it 20 games or w/e a proper quarter is. So far we’ve beaten the teams we should beat, we’re 1-1 against our true competition and idk but the 1 seed and a 50 win season isn’t some next step for us. We’ve done it. Let’s just enjoy it n accept the off nights, we know this team owes us come playoff time
