If you were a Philadelphia 76ers fan before the tanking began, and didn’t feel that you could take immense losing, I think now is a safe time to jump back onto the Sixers bandwagon.

Even a limited Joel Embiid is better than anything the Sixers have had at the helm in years. YEARS. You’re going to want to be a part of this next era of Sixers basketball. If Embiid can stay healthy, they have a really good – potentially great –first piece. Of course, the health issue is important.

Just wait until Ben Simmons returns later this season. It will only get better.
