In addition to our new partnership with Underdog Fantasy, we are also excited to announce that YKB regular Sam Sheehan (@NBABabySecret) will be joining You Know Ball as the full time co-host. No, this is not a bit. We are being serious. He is the new YKB co-host. In his first episode as co-host Sam and I talked about the shit show that is the Brooklyn Nets. Yesterday it was announced that head coach Steve Nash would be fired after the team started the season 2-5. Then less than two hours later it was announced that suspended Celtics coach Ime Udoka would be the new head coach of the Brooklyn Nets. Oh, and by the way Kyrie posted some anti Semitic movie on Twitter and did not apologize for it. And Ben Simmons has missed back to back games after an awful start. Probably nothing. Can the Nets season be salvaged? Meanwhile the Sixers have won three in a row to get back to .500 on the season! Tyrese Maxey scored a career high vs. the Toronto Raptors (again lol), Joel Embiid hit a game winner and remains undefeated vs. the Chicago Bulls and James Harden destroyed the Washington Wizards. The team is 2-0 without Joel Embiid which I did not think was possible? Are we smelling some Ewing Theory potential here House?? Also the NBA did some dumb tampering charges against the Sixers where they lost second round picks in 2023 & 2024 so we talked about that as well. Montrezl Harrell has been surprisingly good? De'Anthony Melton is a god level role player. The Sixers are a good team and should have a better record. It's still fire Doc Rivers til I die. Then we talk about the team we love to hate the most, the Miami Heat! We talked about the Heat potentially missing their window to contend after their (now) 3-5 start that the NBA media seems to be conveniently ignoring? But Jimmy Butler still thinks they are going to be NBA champions still? After making fun of them for a little we discussed how the Heat can salvage the Butler era and actually get back into the championship conversation. Enjoy!

Resident Brooklyn Nets fan Reed Wallach from BetSided's "The Early Reed" returns to the podcast to discuss Ben Simmons slow start with the Brooklyn Nets where he is not looking to score, fouling out of games and possibly screwing up lineups for a team that has championship aspirations. Can the KD and Kyrie Nets be salvaged or will this end in disaster? We also discussed the Deja Vu that I am having as a Sixers fan listening to Nets fans talk about Ben and a fake trade that Reed said he would take in a heartbeat. Plus what would Ben Simmons value be if he were a free agent today?

Derek Bodner of Sixers Beat and the Daily Six newsletter returned to the podcast to discuss the Sixers disastrous 0-3 start. Originally I asked Bodner to come on the podcast to talk me off the ledge when the Sixers lost their opening games to the Celtics and Bucks (good teams!) but we both assumed they would beat the tanking Spurs (bad team!) so at least we would have something positive to talk about. Of course that did not happen! We talked about many things that are ailing the team right now including Joel Embiid's slow start and foot injury, the new pieces not fitting together on either end, and rotational changes that can be made (Free B-Ball Paul 2.0?) but we mainly discussed Doc Rivers job status and whether he is actually on the hot seat right now. We wrapped up the episode talking about potential Doc Rivers replacement's if he is fired, what it would take for the Sixers to move on from Doc and whether we think it would be an internal or external hire and of course we touched on Bill Simmons comments on Joel Embiid wanting to play for the Knicks because of his former agents running the team.

For this entire episode which includes our takes on the Sixers vs. Celtics opening night (where Joel Embiid laid an egg) please subscribe to the You Know Ball Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/YouKnowBall Yes I am coping over the Sixers opening night loss to the Celtics so this is like my therapy. During this preview clip we discussed the Lakers opening night vs. the Golden State Warriors. The team looked as bad as advertised. With key injuries to new old Lakers Thomas Bryant and Dennis Schroder, their depth was tested and they were playing players like Matt Ryan and Wenyen Gabriel who have barely ever played in the league before. They also could not hit a shot which led to some snarky post game comments from Lebron James and Russell Westbrook already complaining about coming off the bench in the preseason. Can a Russ trade even save this team or are they past the point of no return? And yes I am coping over the Sixers opening night loss to the Celtics so this is like my therapy.

Turn from Celtics Twitter returned to talk about rookie extensions from the 2019 NBA Draft class. We talked about Matisse Thybulle not getting extended by the Sixers (WOOHOO!!) and what this means for him moving forward, Grant Williams not getting extended by the Celtics despite his breakout season last year and some other players who actually did get extended including Jordan Poole, Tyler Herro, Brandon Clarke, Kevin Porter, Jr. and Deandre Hunter who got extended mid podcast (lol). We then talked about a few notable players who did not get extended including the Suns Cam Johnson and the Hornets PJ Washington. After the rookie extension talk we gave a few bold predictions for this upcoming NBA season and gave predictions for who would win on opening night of the 22-23 season including our pick for the Sixers vs. Celtics.

Sam, Parm and Trill debate who will win NBA MVP for the 2022-2023 season. We discussed the narratives around the award in recent years, the betting favorites (Luka, Giannis, Embiid) to win this year, the unlikeliness of Jokic winning a third straight MVP due to historical precedent and we also gave some dark horse picks with long betting odds that could be worth taking a flier on. Finally we all made our cases for who we think will win the award this year. Enjoy! This is the Patreon preview for this episode.

To celebrate reaching 200 YKB Patreon Subscribers (Woohoo!) and 100 subscribers on my second YouTube channel we have unlocked this YKB Patreon episode from September 22nd 2022 where Sam Sheehan and I predicted Bill Simmons and Ryen Russillo's Over/Under takes on the upcoming NBA season. Bill and Russillo just released this episode so we figured it was a good time to let it free to the world. Sorry to Joe House who we forgot was also involved in this annual podcast lol. Oh we also gave our over/under predictions for all 30 NBA teams in this episode as well. Enjoy. In this episode Sam famously got Bill Simmons's Clippers takes exactly right in a video that has since gone viral on TikTok and Twitter.

Rob Flom from 213 Hoops returns for part two of our annual predicting the NBA series to discuss: The Golden State Warriors madness + some fake Draymond Green Trades if the team does decides to move on from him (we recorded this before the news that Draymond would not be suspended lol). Then we discussed Tyrese Maxey's insane preseason where he is averaging more than 40 points per 36 minutes) the Sixers cutting Trevelin Queen (the most important Queen we have lost this year) and Charles Bassey being the victim of the Sixers roster crunch. Plus Isaiah Joe will probably make the roster, yay! Finally we wrapped our predicting the season series predicted Western Conference standings 1- 15, picked our conference finals matchup and who will win the conference. Before finally revealing our + NBA finals matchup and the 22-23 NBA Finals winner. Enjoy!

To watch the entire Sixers as Championship Contenders + Eastern Conference Standings Prediction episode please subscribe to the You Know Ball Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/YouKnowBall Rob Flom (@RichHomieFlom) returned for our annual NBA preseason predictions! In part one we talked about the lying NBA media (sad!) setting their expectations way too high for the Sixers and I am beginning to get flashbacks to other failed Sixers seasons?? But this team is way deeper and better .. right?? Also the Sixers new starting line up made their debut and Tyrese Maxey proved why he is god. James Harden looked ... kinda the same? So we talked about that and whether the hype is actually worth buying with this Sixers team. Enjoy! In the full Patreon episode we had a little sidebar about 2023 NBA Draft Prospect Victor Wembanyama vs. current NBA prospects and players and then we try to predict the Eastern Conference Standings for this upcoming NBA season before picking our conference finals matchup + which team will come out of the east this season.

We got our first voicemail from a YKB Patreon Head Hog about the Boston Celtics so we riffed on that and gave our thoughts. Then Sam Sheehan and Trill overreact to the first few days of the NBA preseason (record Tuesday night during Zion's return) including Tyrese Maxey's insane first half, Ben Simmons return to basketball vs. the Sixers, Cade Cunningham's slow start vs. the Knicks and then we make fun of some Warriors fans for doing the same exact thing that we do when they get overly excited about their young players. I also made a prediction about which Sixer that I feel like could be on the move very soon. And it is not who you think it is. Finally we predicted the GOAT Zach Lowe's league pass rankings for the 2022 - 2023 NBA season while also sharing our own league pass rankings for this upcoming season. We give our locks for the list, some teams that might pique Zach's interest and the teams that will obviously not be included (like one he calls Voldemort) on his list. In the middle of this episode the two GOATs Bill Simmons and Zach Lowe dropped an episode and we tried to guess some of their talking points during the podcast.

If the Sixers cannot trade for him, which NBA teams are realistic trade partners? We also discussed Jason's fellow Australian Ben Simmons' guest appearance on JJ Redick's podcast the Old Man and the Three podcast which was a weird mix of bitter, insecure and cocky . Enjoy!

This click bait list is designed to make us mad so we all talk about it and hey it works every single year! In this section we talked about which players should not have been included, which players should have been included, and a few players who were way too high (cough cough Russell Westbrook) and some who were too low (Jamal Murray). Also should rookies be included at all on these lists? Also please keep in mind we recorded this episode right before the Ime Udoka scandal story came out so more on that later ... Enjoy!

Which is easily the coolest thing that Doc has ever done as Sixers coach btw. We then discussed everything that could go right for the Sixers (lol like this ever happens) and what their ceiling is this season if things break in their favor. Topics ranged from James Harden bouncing back to new vets being happy with his new role to certain young players making leaps for trade purposes. I then gave my prediction for this team's ceiling in the regular season and playoffs and whether they could realistically hit that ceiling. Enjoy!

In this clip from the very first YKB Patreon exclusive we discussed Tyrese Maxey's breakout in year two with the Sixers and how he can improve even more as an NBA player moving forward. My guest Ben Pfiefer also explained why Montrezl Harrell signing with the Sixers could be important for Maxey's development as an on ball creator and I shared a stat about Maxey's early career playoff stats that made me think his ceiling might be even higher than I ever imagined.

We then discussed Maxey's floor, median outcome and ceiling (which might be higher than we thought before) as an NBA player with some Maxey propaganda stats sprinkled in. We then ended the podcast discussing whether you would rather have Maxey or a list of young rising stars and some of Ben's answers might surprise you!

I really would appreciate it. Thank you! The rest of this episode is the audio from our YouTube live stream NBA Mock Expansion Draft. Shoutout to the tharealkevbot who paid for the majority of the bottle of James Harden's wine that I drank throughout this live stream. It was very good wine and I got very drunk so things went off the rails towards the end. We conducted a two team (Seattle and Las Vegas) NBA expansion Mock Draft. All 30 current NBA teams were able to protect six players each, leaving at least nine players from each team available to draft in the mock draft. Every current team can lose a maximum of two players, one to each expansion team. Current NBA teams can also incentivize the drafting expansion teams to take a bad contract off their hands. For example: the Knicks could offer a first round pick to one of the teams to draft Julius Randle and take his contract. Enjoy!

I was joined for an emergency stream by Sam Sheehan (@NBABabySecret) and Nihilist Bucks to discuss the Cleveland Cavaliers stealing Donovan Mitchell from the New York Knicks in a shocker slop drop. The Jazz traded the 26 year old all star for a load of picks and swaps plus Lauri Markkanen, Ochai Agbaji and a sign and trade for Collin Sexton. We discussed where this puts the Cavs in the hierarchy of the loaded Eastern Conference, where the Knicks go from here and what the Jazz will do with Bojan Bogdanovic, Jordan Clarkson and Mike Conley now that they have fully committed to their rebuild. Also could the Lakers get those players after acquiring Patrick Beverly from the Jazz last week? Should the Sixers have any interest in Clarkson or Bojan? And is it possible for them to get them? Also we riffed on the possibility of an NBA expansion draft with two teams now that the league is so loaded. We picked which players we would protect from the Celtics, Bucks and Sixers. Enjoy! Enjoy!

Harrison Faigen from SBNation joins the podcast to discuss the new Kevin Durant "rumors" from The Athletic's Shams Charania including new "interest" from the Memphis Grizzlies. We discussed why teams continue to low ball the Nets, what it will take to get a deal actually done and what we would be looking for in a return for one of the 15 greatest basketball players of all time. Plus: do you believe Kyrie Irving is actually going to return to the Nets? We then discussed Lebron James re-signing with the Lakers and whether the team and the end of Lebron's window can actually be salvaged with a Russell Westbrook trade. We finished the podcast by ranking our favorite Russell Westbrook trades including fake trades to the Brooklyn Nets, Indiana Pacers, Utah Jazz, New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs and what we would give up to move off the Westbrook deal.

Chuck from ChuckingDarts returned to SLOP IT UP! We discussed one of the deepest and most memorable drafts of all time: the 2014 NBA Draft. The hype leading up to this draft was insane from Andrew Wiggins being the Maple Jordan to Joel Embiid being the next Hakeem and clear number one pick until he broke his foot. We discussed all of the narratives and reactions to this draft and talked about some of the biggest what if's that came from it. Mainly what if the Bucks selected Joel Embiid at number two and made one of the greatest duos in NBA history? Other discussions included why did Embiid not go number one? How did Jokic fall so far? And of course we redrafted the lottery of this draft and discussed who went number one overall between two future hall of fame centers: Joel Embiid and Nikola Jokic. Enjoy!

Matt Brooks (@MattBrooksNBA) from Nets Daily joined me to talk about all the madness that is always happening with the Brooklyn Nets including the new rumors that Kevin Durant is open to playing with the Sixers. We discussed many things including Kevin Durant vs. Nets coaching and management, Durant and Harden's renewed friendship in Europe? a Celtics Jaylen Brown based package vs. a Sixers Tyrese Maxey based package, why a Sixers trade package might be more enticing than you think and why Morey might be actually willing to push in the chips more than any other GM in the NBA. After our discussion about Durant trades we held our very first SLOP TRIAL where we discussed Sean Marks entire tenure as the Nets GM and determined whether he is actually a good GM (and Durant is wrong) or a bad GM (and Durant is right).

Sixers Beat Writer Adam Aaronson from The Rights to Ricky Sanchez joined the podcast to revisit one of the most insane times in Sixers fandom history, Burnergate! Before this, we touched on the news that the NBA is investigating the Sixers and James Harden for tampering ... which should not be a surprise to anyone! Next we dove head first into Burnergate where we talked about the night that the Ringer story from Ben Detrick first broke, the origins of his "source" for this story and how Adam started digging into the burner accounts himself. We also discussed his disdain for his own players in the tweets including former number one overall pick Markelle Fultz and Sixers MVP candidate Joel Embiid and some of the most insane tweets that Adam found while searching through the Twitter accounts. Including one tweet that blew my mind. Finally we discussed an alternative universe in which Colangelo is never first and how that could have effected the Sixers 2018 and 2019 moves and changed the trajectory of the franchise. Enjoy!

We talked about the death of the five team trade (RIP), Russell Westbook firing his agent of 14 years and his fall out with Lebron and Klutch and why the Lakers could be a disaster again next season.

Bryan Toporek from Liberty Ballers, Forbes and Bleacher Report to discuss all the slop that dropped this week! First Deandre Ayton back to the Suns after they match the Pacers four year max offer sheet, the drama that could unfold in their locker room next year and how it will effect Phoenix Suns and their grand plans to trade for Kevin Durant. We also talked about the Donovan Mitchell to the Knicks rumors, whether the Knicks should go all in for the star they have wanted forever and what a realistic package could look like for them to land him. We then talked about why the Sixers were never major players for Mitchell despite having one of the best young prospects in the league in Tyrese Maxey. Also when the Jazz fully blow it up, how can the Sixers benefit and who should they target on their roster? Last we talked about Isaiah Joe, Trevelin Queen, Jaden Springer and the Summer League Sixers. Enjoy! We are excited to announce our very first partnership with Philly Sports Trips!

The Ringer's Bill Simmons and Ryne Russillo recorded one of the most perfect podcast's of all time titled "The NBA Trade Value List" where they ranked the most valuable trade chips currently in the NBA. I was joined by podcast regular's Matt (@MDelNBA) and Sam Sheehan (Definitely Not @NBABabySecret on Twitter) to discuss the The Ringer's Bill Simmons and Ryne Russillo recorded one of the most perfect podcast's of all time titled "The NBA Trade Value List" where they ranked the most valuable trade chips currently in the NBA. I was joined by podcast regular's Matt (@MDelNBA) and Sam Sheehan (Definitely Not @NBABabySecret) to discuss the rankings, tiers, who was too high, who was too low, recency bias towards certain players and the massive overvaluing of unproven players over proven players.

Jackson Frank from Dime Uproxx and Liberty Ballers returns to the podcast to talk all things Sixers slop. First we addressed the new Kyrie to the Sixers rumors and talked about why we think it is a long shot that this ever happens ... for many reasons. Next we discussed the slightly more realistic but still hard to accomplish Eric Gordon to the Sixers rumors that won't seem to go away. And then we ran down the Sixers acquisitions this offseason including PJ Tucker, Danuel House, and De'Anthony Melton. We discussed their fit on the team, the new vision of building around Maxey, Harden and Embiid with defensive minded players and who will be the starting small forward to start next season. Enjoy!

On this slop stream we discussed Rudy Gobert to the Minnesota Timberwolves for a crazy haul of draft picks and how it could effect the Kevin Durant and Donovan Mitchell trade market.

On this slop stream (subscribe to YKB on YouTube to watch them live) we talked all the latest in NBA trade and free agency SLOP. James Harden opted out of his contract to give the Sixers more flexibility and access to the Mid Level Exception, Bi Annual Exception and possible sign and trade scenarios. We talked about some way that could shake out for the team including some targets they might be able to go after with the BAE. We also reacted to the Dejounte Murray to the Hawks trade, KCP for Will Barton and Monte Morris trade, and discussed trade rumors surrounding Tobias Harris, Matisse Thybulle & more!

I was joined by the number one De'Anthony Melton fan Keith Parish from Fastbreak Breakfast to discuss all things MELTON! We talked about why Memphis moved on from Melton, what he brings to the Sixers and how he fits perfectly as the first guy off the bench with the Maxey, Harden and Embiid core. We also touched on the Grizzles draft including my personal favorite 2022 draft prospect David Roddy who was picked with the Sixers first rounder that was traded to Memphis for Melton. Up top I discussed how Harden might have to take a paycut to the Sixers for the Sixers to have access to the MLE to sign PJ Tucker to the rumored 3 years 30 million dollar contract that we will be offered on Thursday. Also thank you to Kyrie Irving who ruined the second part of this podcast by opting into his contract with the Nets! I will be back shortly with more slop for the final days of slop week(s). ENJOY!

It's Draft Week Baby! The Kevin Rice made his triumphant return after a year break from the public eye!!! He returned to talk about the MASSIVE Kyrie Irving news from Shams that he could possibly leave the Nets in free agency for the Knicks or Lakers. Next we talked about PJ Tucker declining his player option to explore free agency and how the Sixers could sign him to be a potential Danny Green replacement. We also touched on the Hornets being cheap and why a Miles Bridges for Deandre Ayton swap makes some sense for both teams. We then tried to predict every pick in the 2022 NBA Draft Lottery based on public info and how the lottery teams generally operate. Last we discussed a few more prospects for the Sixers at 23 including TyTy Washington, Kennedy Chandler, Dalen Terry, Kendall Brown and my personal favorite prospect: David Roddy. Enjoy!

The NBA finals are over. The Warriors won again (thank god) so now we can focus on what really matters: SLOP. Josh Reynolds from the new podcast "That's Ball Folks" joined me to discuss all things Sixers slop related including James Harden extension report from Jake Fischer, Thybulle, Korkmaz, Shake and Tobias being shopped around the league and intel based mock drafts connecting the Sixers to one of my favorite draft targets at number 23. We then talked in depth on some fake trades and offseason questions submitted by You Know Ball listeners. ENJOY! We are excited to announce our very first partnership with Philly Sports Trips!

Dave Early from Liberty Ballers returned to talk Sixers draft night trade. We talked about the recent trade slop that dropped from KOC that implied that the Sixers might try to move Danny Green's contract and pick number 23 for a roster upgrade on draft night. I talked about the four guys that I would keep instead of trading the pick if they fell to the Sixers at number 23 and we discussed some other draft targets who I like but I would be fine if they traded the pick instead of keeping them. Then we ran down a bunch of trades that the Sixers could try to execute on draft night. Some are realistic trades but mostly they are just dreams that I have. We discussed why they might work, why they might not and determined how realistic they are from a scale of 1-10. Enjoy! We are excited to announce our very first partnership with Philly Sports Trips!

Chuck from the Chucking Darts podcast returned to discuss the Sixers wing targets with pick 23 including my favorite prospect who is falling down draft boards for some reason and even being mock drafted to the Sixers (!) in a few mock drafts ... LSU power wing Tari Eason. We discussed Tari's rise and fall on draft boards over the last year, his strengths and flaws, and why he could be the perfect upside swing for the Sixers if he is still on the board at 23. Next we discussed the late riser of this draft Jalen Williams of Santa Clara and why he could be a great fit on a contending win now team like the Sixers. Some other wing targets discussed included Christian Braun and Ochai Agbaji of Kansas, Jake Laravia of Wake Forest, Kendall Brown of Baylor, Marjon Beauchamp of the G-League Ignite, Nikola Jovic of Mega Mozzart and Chuck's favorite second round/undrafted free agent prospect sleeper Justin Lewis of Marquette. We also touched on a few other names as well. We ended the episode discussing the latest SLOP that dropped from Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report who reported that teams are trying to pry away 3&D wing and NBA nerd favorite OG Anunoby from the Toronto Raptors. We then debated, would you rather have the fourth pick in this draft or OG? Enjoy! We are excited to announce our very first partnership with Philly Sports Trips!

The Nets finally deferred the Sixers first round pick to next year! In celebration we drafted the first round of the 2022 NBA draft including the Sixers pick at number 23. We talked about all the first round prospects, team strategy, what we would do with the picks and what we think teams will do with their picks. Please excuse the audio issues. Enjoy!

I was joined by filmmaker Jon Hill aka @JHillNahMean from the Super Hoopers podcast to discuss many things but mainly the Lakers crushing our dreams by hiring Darvin Ham instead of top 15 all time head coach Doc Rivers. We also discussed weird diehard Daryl Morey defenders, Embiid's tweets about Miami that made me nervous about his future, the Sixers young guys (including the untouchable Tyrese Maxey and unvaxable Thybulle) and why the NBA finals show us the value of investing in your own talent and developing them! Next we gave our NBA finals predictions and discussed the matchup between the Celtics and Warriors. After that we did the weekly around the NBA SLOP round up which included rumors about Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, Rudy Gobert, Zach Lavine (again) and one team that might be interested in Tobias Harris? Finally we ended the episode by discussing Jon's new film Above the Clouds that you can donate to and support below. Enjoy! Support Jon's film! Visit https://www.abovethecloudsfilm.com/ to donate.

Bryan Toporek from Forbes and Bleacher Report joined me to talk a whole lot of slop including: The Nets probably deferring the Sixers pick to 2023 which means the Sixers will have a first round pick and I will have draft content over the next few weeks! The Lakers are still interested in Doc Rivers for some reason which raises the questions ... do the Sixers really wanna keep him? Trading Tobias Harris is harder than it sounds due to many different factors so is it better just to keep him? The Chicago Bulls are interested in Thybulle but what can they really give up for him? Also, we explore some fake Thybulle trades (that might have to include the 23rd pick) that could net the Sixers some rotation player(s) back. For the last 30 minutes of this episode we did a league wide slop round up and talked about rumors surrounding Deandre Ayton, Zach Lavine, Russell Westbrook, Jerami Grant, Bradley Beal, the Blazers, Kings and more! Unfortunately the Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant news came out after we recorded so more on that next episode. Marty Teller made his triumphant return to the podcast to discuss all things Sixers offseason, like we always do. First, we discussed the re-litigation of the Jimmy Butler Sixers era and why there is some revisionist history with the whole situation from fans and even Jimmy himself. After that we dove into the idea of Morey "star hunting" again and talked about a few different targets who could possibly be the third or fourth star on next year's Sixers. We then discussed whether this strategy was worth it or if the team should focus on building the team's depth through free agency, trades and the draft instead. From there we discussed Harden's new (possibly discounted) contract, Tobias Harris and Matisse Thybulle trades and some targets that we would have in those deals. We finished the episode talking about our favorite free agent targets that the Sixers could target to build their depth. Enjoy!

I was joined by Zo from the Rights to Ricky Sanchez to discuss SOME FRESH HOT SIXERS TRADE SLOP. The Deal Zone king himself Brian Windhorst leaked some information about the Sixers plans to pursue a third star this offseason and why the draft lottery could effect those plans. Would the team really be willing to trade Philadelphia hero Tyrese Maxey in order to get a third star? We discussed out thoughts on that and tried to guess the third star Windhorst might be hinting at in this interview. Also we discussed: is Doc Rivers really going to be back, how the Sixers can become DAWGS, the Suns major collapse and gave our conference finals and finals predictions. Enjoy!

Well the last one was good and this one sucked ... a lot. Sixers go down 3-2 after an embarrassing performance in Miami in game five. They head back home to Philly facing elimination.

WHAT A WIN! Fresh off a game three win vs. the The Miami Heat to get back into the series, we discussed the man, the myth, the legend Joel Embiid and his amazing comeback and how this could change everything for the team in this series and in the playoffs moving forward. We also touched on a bunch of stuff including Danny Green's revenge vs. the Sixers crowd, Maxey's insane second half after a cold start, Tobias 2.0 making winning plays, and game manager James Harden.

The Sixers (without Joel Embiid) lost a very winnable game one in Miami to the Heat. We ranted about Doc Rivers, Deandre Jordan, the refusal to change, the major differences between the Heat and the Sixers as organizations and more. Enjoy!

The Sixers scared us for a second but they beat the Toronto Raptors in a game 6 blowout to seal the series and advance to the second round. Next up, the Miami Heat. We talked about the end of the Raptors series and what we are and aren't looking forward to in the Miami Heat series. Then we talked about the other series around the league. Enjoy!

Embiid hit the first game winning shot of his career to go up 3-0 on the Toronto Raptors ... but then we found out he had torn ligaments in his thumb and the team laid an egg in game 4 .. because it's the Sixers baby! But overall we tried to keep things positive on this podcast as the Sixers aim to close out the Raptors at home in game 5 on Monday night. We talked the big shot and win in game 3, the Tobias "Harrison Barnes" vision we discussed finally coming to fruition and why guys like Danny Green, Shake Milton and Paul Reed will be crucial to the Sixers success in the playoffs. We then wrapped up the episode talking about why the Ben Simmons era with the KD/Kyrie Brooklyn Nets continues to look like a disaster before it even gets off the ground.

Embiid is MVP. Maxey is a superstar. Harden is a point god. Doc and Tobias are finally normal. Paul Reed is playing? Danny Green is not washed? Hopefully we didn't push our luck with this episode.
