And yet, there’s a team that interests me less than the Sixers. This team is just a dud. That’s too bad because they actually do have some talent. But that talent just isn’t interesting to me. Well, actually, I might tune in during the final 30 seconds of games, when “Too Cool Joe” Johnson earns his second-most-expensive-in-the-NBA contract.

As a Duke fan, I’m excited for Jahlil Okafor. As a current Philly resident, I’ll be at some games this year. I’m also excited for all the career highs that will be set this season… against the Sixers. Honestly, that’s about it. This team is young, hungry, and they play hard. But that’s simply not enough for me. It works when a team has intriguing talent like the Bucks, but the Sixers simply lack in that department.
