Philadelphia 76ers’ Scouting Report

The Philadelphia 76ers finally appears to be turning it around.  After tanking and telling their fans to “Trust the Process” this 76ers team has finally climbed from the basement and is looking like it could be a contender in the near future.

They have a record of 17 wins and 29 losses coming into tonight’s game.  They are only 5 games behind Charlotte for the eight-seed in the Eastern Conference.

The 76ers have won 11 out of their 26 home contests this regular season.  They have won 4 of their last 5 home games though and look to be rounding into form.

On January 27th, the Philadelphia 76ers did battle with the Houston Rockets in Philly.  The Rockets defeated the Joel Embiid led 6ers by a score of 123-118 on Friday.  Below is a highlight video to give you a glimpse at the team’s recent form.

Joel Embiid might be the main attraction for this 76ers team, but they are quickly developing into a fun team to watch.  They play fast with a hoard of young talent.  The 76ers have big men who would start on half the teams in the league that cannot even play a minute for the 6ers, think about saying that sentence two years ago.

They have Ben Simmons waiting in the wings and if they play their cards right multiple first-round draft picks to add to the team this summer.  Philadelphia is a fascinating team to watch going forward as I think the “Process” might have worked, after all, it just needed a little more time.
