🚨MAJOR NBA News That Will Change EVERYTHING For The 76ers And The Entire NBA…

76ers news and 76ers rumors today focus on the major NBA news from ESPN’s Shams Charania that the NBA is planning to make some major anti-tanking rule changes heading into the 2026-27 NBA season. During the 2025-26 NBA season, we have seen unprecedented levels of tanking from several NBA teams, including the Utah Jazz and Washington Wizards. As a result, Adam Silver and the NBA have informed teams they will be addressing tanking in a big way this offseason, possibly shaking up the NBA lottery odds, NBA draft, NBA trades and more. 76ers Now host Jake Chipper discusses the NBA’s tanking problem and how it impacts the Sixers and the entire NBA moving forward.

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver on NBA tanking:
“I think part of the problem is that if you step back, the fundamental theory behind the draft is to help your worst-performing teams restock and be able to compete. The issue is if teams are manipulating their performance in order to get higher draft picks, even in a lottery, then the question becomes, even if teams were rewarded for draft picks purely according to predicted odds of the lottery, are they really the worst performing teams?”

  1. Take their top draft picks and suspend them from the playoffs if and when they make it. Also fine the owner.

  2. The suxers need a new owner and new GM. They will never win a championship with this owner. He's only worried about making money and not losing money. The coach will get blamed and get fired, and then the cycle will start over again. Sixers need a front court and front court backups. What good is Embid when he's on the bench in street clothes at least half the season every year. It's time to get rid of some players and bring in some young,talented big men and most of all guys that can actually stay healthy. Paying all thar money for GP and Embid was stupid. Think of the draft picks we could have gotten if they had traded Embid a couple of years ago and not signed Paul. Could have had plenty of money and draft picks and built a great team.

  3. losing teams have always tanked, it's only a problem now because of gambling, the NBA says it does the fans a disservice, when fans are smart enough to know when their team should tank, many call for it at times, they even get upset if their team starts tanking to late, it's not about the fans, its about the gambling partners losing money if more teams start doing what the Utah Jazz specifically did
