Are The Sixers A Top NBA Team? (PST Episode 542)

The Philadelphia 76’ers are having a successful season thus far, and they’ve been a fun team for the fans to watch. The question is: are the Sixers a top NBA team? This week, Sean Barnard from Pick Swap Media and Fox Sports Philly The Gambler joined us to break down what we’ve been seeing on the court with this team, and how head coach Nick Nurse has been a breath of fresh air for Sixers basketball.

But first, we dove into a thought about the Kelce brothers and media darling narrative. Would they be getting so much acclaim if they were black? (approx. 11:05)

We then discussed how the national narrative surrounding the Eagles, at 10-1 on the season, claims they’re simply a lucky team. How ridiculous. (approx. 22:30)

From there, we introduced our new segment, “Shoot them off a DM.” If we had the opportunity to DM anyone in the world of Philly sports about anything and would receive a response from them, who would we DM, and what would that DM be? (approx. 33:30)

We then discussed the NBA Eastern Conference and how things have been looking for the top teams. (approx. 44:50)

What we threw down on the Table this week was an in-depth discussion and interview with Sean Barnard from Pick Swap Media and Fox Sports Philly The Gambler about this Sixers team. We assessed the starters, their strengths and what they need to improve on. How much of this year’s early success can be placed at Nick Nurse’s feet? What kind of talent might Daryl Morey look to bring to this team before the trade deadline in February? Plus much more within this discussion! (approx 53:45)
