These are NOT the Same Sixers
The Philadelphia 76ers are one of the stories of the NBA right now, beating the Knicks and playing great basketball behind a rising superstar in Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid who’s finding his form, VJ Edgecombe who is one of the best rookies in a stacked class, and a decent enough Paul George. They’ve got real Playoff potential this season and the future is way brighter than people realize.

W video sixers fun team to watch fr
As of this comment, the Sixers have won 3 straight games when their Big 3 of Embiid, George and Maxey all played after losing the first 4.
Literally just got my dinner thanks Cone
i have grimes, edgecomb and maxey all in my fantasy team
Embiid only needing to play 30-32min and they can still win is huge. If he can stack games and get into real nba shape, east could get really muddy this year
7:44 “and let Vj and Edgecombe cook” mhm there might as well be two of him out there
Sixers made it to the big leagues boys!! When 3Cone make a video about a team, they must be making noise. Let's Go Sixers 🔴🔵
Ben simmons: Uh, I will play for you guys for free.
76ers: No thanks.
76ers > Knicks
Two things. He said Kelly Ubre hasn't played much this season. He was starting before he got injured. The other thing he said is that the Knicks are a better team. So far, they have not shown themselves to be the better team.😂
Maxey is in the MVP conversation
a healthy Sixers team with Herb Jones will be a defensive nightmare.
Pg8 has been pretty great this year. He isn’t scoring, but not because he can’t, he’s not scoring because they don’t need him too. They just want him to play defense and shoot 3s and he’s doing that pretty well. Pg coming back has dramatically changed the defense, they were terrible without him and with him they are a top 10-13 team in the league. When oubre comes back the sixers should have a top ten defense.
If the sixers are healthy, no one in the east can beat the sixers.
Health is our issue.
I love the fact that it looks like they’re having fun. The paul George first dunk thing scared me but seeing embiid do the same showed me it’s all fun. I hope they stay healthy
OKC… We need to run it back
Jaylen brown has always been their best player. Hot take but I’ll die on it
It’s good to see Joel not have to carry the entire franchise on his back anymore. It’s sad it had to happen this way, his knee probably never being the same and his minutes and availability being as it is, although he is starting to look much more like himself again. So many years nobody else wanted to step up and help carry the load, so it’s great to see Maxey and VJ do exactly that. Along with all the other great role players the team has. Grimes, McCain, Barlow, etc…they have a lot of really good players on that team and can throw together a bunch of different lineups. I’m happy for the team. And I haven’t even mentioned Paul George, who is slowly starting to be a real factor for the team with his shot-making and his ability to do a lot of different things on both sides of the ball.
I think the best thing for the team was to mentally have moved on from hoping PG and Embiid would come back and save the day. You can tell Maxey and VJ were like, why not us? Why not be great now? So yea I expect them to win more games now. Especially now that they are finding a groove with PG and Joel in the lineup. They can beat any team in the league. It’s just about putting it all together for a full season and playoff run now. Because VJ has been incredible. His shooting has been so much better than expected, and his intensity and willingness to take responsibility and not be afraid of big moments has been a godsend.
Don’t really think we need to make a trade. When everyone is healthy we are a pretty complete team. We get oubre and watford back our bench will be solidified.
VJ Edgecombe is my ROY
EVERY. SEASON. WE HAVE THIS TALK.
Giannis would mess up the ball sharing chemistry I see developing, imo.
"Fringe" naw hooping like this in a top 5 market makes you a Superstar. With a capital S.
No matter what we gotta keep oubre. He's been one of the best fits for this team possible and he's been great both ways this season especially.
Damn cone u missed the weird game Lakers vs grizz refs were clearly gambling that game
I hope embiid can stay healthy….so they can trade him
Drummond and Kelly could be huge for minutes to relieve Embid and PG this season since both can help with those back to backs during the season .
Very good commentary. Everything you said was spot on.
We don’t even really need embiid in the all star game we need him in the finals
looks like an ECF appearance finally this year
All NBA 2nd team lol? Giannis is not first team this year with how bad the Bucks are. Maxey is first team at this piont, he's afreaking MVP candidate, 2nd team lol.
They should trade one of their young guards, whether it be Tyrese VJ Grimes, or McCain because they have four guards who could easily average 20 points and they don’t have much depth for their Wings or centre
It’s really interesting how about 2-3 weeks ago everyone would’ve had the Knicks penciled in to run thru the east or at least be heavy favorites. But this Sixers team would be a horrible matchup for them
Philly has always been a good team. The only issue has been Joel Embiid health and availability
