Heard enough about the Mike Malone news and the playoff race?
Why not indugle in hopium and read about a Sixers historical parallel. The 97 Spurs tanked after their MVP center injured himself. Sound familiar?
Heres why that Spurs team should give Sixers fans hope.

This is a Sixers we'll happily forget. But, there some storylines and aspects were oh so fun.
From Yabu Yabooing to all-time great individual play to a new signature shot. These are the things I'll miss from this Sixers season.

But NBA history tells us former MVPs can still play vital, smaller roles on championship contender.
My new @libertyballers.bsky.social piece examines what a smaller role for Embiid would look like for the Sixers.

Wrote a quick piece on what the Sixers have done well this season and how they can build on those things next season.
Its a very quick read.

As good as Jared McCain was, Quentin Grimes has earned the starting role alongside Maxey next season.
And its not just because he dropped 44.
Broke down his all-round game 👇

Wrote about the future of the Sixers wing rotation.
Grimes and Edwards are great complementary pieces. Kelly is solid. C4 is a cheap and fun question mark.
I also touch on what PG's done well and reasons to be optimistic this is just a slump

After returning from injury in early Feb, Embiid looked meh on offense (and some really bad numbers back that up).
It's affecting the team offense and also presents a problem for the future, especially if they want to shut him down this season.

Joel Embiid's defense since returning for the Sixers has been below standard.
He's still elite in one very important aspect, but everything else is not great, Bob.

Broke down how Quentin Grimes will fit with the Sixers.
He's proved himself as a shooter and has some tasty self-creation chops.
Defensively is where he can become a starter and finisher for the team.
Should be fun.

The ten game rookie has proved an effective NBA player in his last two games. Playing over 35 minutes in each, he showed a malleable skill set, a high IQ, and some defensive knack.
Most of all though, he nice with it.

Wrote about Guerschon Yabusele's masterpiece against the Wizards and how it confirmed he should be the 76ers' backup five.

In their last three games, the Sixers have shown the good, bad, and the ugly their offense is capable of.
With a brutal schedule incoming, they must ensure it's far more good than bad and ugly.
Here's how they can do that.

We'll start with the absolute worst - the Sacramento ending.
Minimal ball movement (just six non-handoff passes made in halfcourt live action) led to 0 points in three minutes of game time.

He simply but beautifully orchestrated an offense that put Maxey in the kitchen and let him cook.
After being tied up to start the quarter, the 76ers were up 11 by the time he subbed out. Just enough to survive for a win.

That's just one anomaly in the team's absurd and paradoxical three-point shooting stat-sheet.
Sherlock Hoops would be dumbfounded.
I explore it in my latest @libertyballers.bsky.social

- Philly back?
- Lakers washed?
- Grizzlies scary!
This week I judged teams based on their last five games and predicted the NBA Cup knockout rounds.
Fun stuff!

If the Sixers want to engage, they need to what they're up against.
New @libertyballers.bsky.social explores the teams Philly would need to out tank in order to keep their pick.

It's a weekly piece and last week 2 of my recs went OT and 2 more were decided by under 3 points. That earns a self-toot of the horn, so give this one a read if you wanna watch good hoops (you do).
