Allen Iverson willed the 76ers to the 2001 NBA Finals. Although he was able to steal a game from the heavily favored Los Angeles Lakers and create a signature moment with “The Step-Over,” A.I. almost had a backcourt partner that could’ve shifted his time in Philly. On Saturday, ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith confirmed a story that […]
Has Joel Embiid turned heel in Philadelphia? On Monday, Embiid posted a photo of himself on Instagram quieting the Wells Fargo Center crowd with the quote, “You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain,” from Harvey Dent in the 2008 film The Dark Knight. 76ers responded one day later by booing him during player introductions prior to tonight’s game […]
On Monday evening Joel Embiid lived up to his unofficial billing as the best troll in the NBA by posting a pic of him shushing the Philadelphia crowd with that Harvey Dent quote that says “You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.” The image was taken on […]
The Philadelphia 76ers are heading into the All-Star break in a state of disarray. The 76ers have lost three consecutive games, and it will be four straight if they lose to the Milwaukee Bucks tonight, the team with the best record in the league, on their home court. The Sixers are tied with the Indiana Pacers for fifth in […]

Isaiah Thomas is letting fans know he will not tolerate any disrespect. During Saturday’s game against Philadelphia, the Washington Wizards point guard was seen entering the stands to confront a couple of Sixers fans. The incident occurred late in the fourth quarter and ultimately led to his ejection from the game. Though it was initially unclear what […]
Jimmy Butler‘s insane work ethic has become the stuff of legend, and has often led to friction with his teammates. On Tuesday, Butler sat down for a conversation with Yahoo Sports’ Vincent Goodwill, where he was asked if his Sixers teammates worked as hard as he did. “No,” Butler responded. “But everybody don’t do that. Everybody […]
Jimmy Butler made his big return to the Wells Fargo Center this weekend. And let’s just say his welcome was far from warm. Saturday’s game between the 76ers and Heat marked the first time Butler appeared at the arena since leaving Philadelphia for Miami over the summer. During his time with the Sixers, Butler had averaged 18.2 points, […]
When Jimmy Butler signed with the Miami Heat this past summer a lot of people were probably confused. Not only because he vacated a roster that had Joel Embiid, Ben Simmons, and enough firepower to give the eventual champion Raptors their biggest test in the NBA Playoffs. But also because he didn’t link up with […]
Jeopardy! is full of answers next to nobody would know off the top of their heads. But on Friday, all three contestants had NBA history as a blind spot for some reason. The contestants weaved their way through the board and saved the clues in the “Eastern Conference” category for last. Kris selected a $400 clue that read: […]
