O’Donoghue: The Philadelphia 76ers might be impending Champions

Dylan O’Donoghue | Thursday, February 17, 2022

It happened. The heavily anticipated trade between the Brooklyn Nets and the Philadelphia 76ers finally happened. It certainly lived up to the hype. Former league MVP James Harden, along with veteran power forward Paul Millsap, have been sent to Philadelphia in exchange for 3-time All-Star Ben Simmons, sharpshooter Seth Curry, Andre Drummond and two first-round

McGuinness: 76ers can’t punt a season of prime Embiid

Andrew McGuinness | Monday, January 24, 2022

It takes a lot of things to win a championship in sports. Ownership, depth, health, salary cap management (when applicable), luck and a slew of other elements play an important role in deciding who comes out on top. But by far the most important thing, and the one that’s hardest to find, is an elite

How much longer can we ‘Trust the Process’?

Matt Smith | Thursday, September 30, 2021

“Trust the Process.” That is the only phrase that Philadelphia 76ers fans have heard since 2013 when then-76ers general manager Sam Hinkie emphasized the importance of being patient with the team. The fans believed, and they suffered through some brutal seasons, including an astoundingly bad 10-72 record during the 2015-2016 season. But the outlook for

Masin-Moyer: Predicting championships for three teams

Lucas Masin-Moyer | Thursday, April 25, 2019

In what is the first of many lasts in my final few weeks as an undergrad here at Notre Dame, today I’ll be submitting my last-ever Observer Sports Authority. So I figured there’d be no better way to end my sports-writing career than by writing about the three teams that have occupied pretty much every

DelVecchio: Sixers may be trusting the process a little longer

Grant DelVecchio | Thursday, February 7, 2019

After his game-winning floater lifted the Los Angeles Clippers to a 117-115 victory over the Charlotte Hornets on Tuesday night, blossoming small forward Tobias Harris was greeted with the news that he’d be packing his bags and heading to Philadelphia. In the early hours of Wednesday morning, the Philadelphia 76ers completed a blockbuster deal with

Mulvena: With LeBron out of the East, this NBA season is special

Connor Mulvena | Wednesday, November 14, 2018

I love the NBA this year. I always love basketball season, and I look forward to college basketball and the NBA every year, but for me, the NBA has a special charm that college basketball just doesn’t. The macho, tough guy side of me, which, as everyone who has had the pleasure of meeting me

Masin-Moyer: Ranking the favorites for the 2018 NBA title

Lucas Masin-Moyer | Monday, April 16, 2018

Usually in this newspaper, rankings are left for the Viewpoint section in one of Davis Gonsalves’ fine columns. But, seeing as the NBA playoffs have tipped off this past weekend, I’m ready to offer up some rankings of my own. Yes, that’s right — in this column, after some consultation with friend and current resident

Masin-Moyer: Learning to ‘Trust the Process’

Lucas Masin-Moyer | Wednesday, February 8, 2017

One hundred ninety-nine. That’s the number of games the Philadelphia 76ers lost in the three seasons spanning 2013-2016. That’s 33 more losses than the Cavaliers in their first three seasons after LeBron James left, a team whose idea of a star was a 34-year-old Antwan Jamison, and 30 more losses than the then-Charlotte Bobcats — now Charlotte

O’Boyle: How to beat the unbeatable

Daniel O'Boyle | Monday, December 7, 2015

At 10 games, it was a special start. At 16, it was record-breaking. Now with 22 wins to begin the 2015-16 NBA regular season, the Golden State Warriors’ start is something else entirely. Maybe some people will tell you that the Warriors won’t go 82-0 this year. That in today’s NBA, a team just can’t

Hadley: 76ers hang by a thread

Greg Hadley | Thursday, December 4, 2014

Stop the presses everyone. The Philadelphia 76ers won a game. Twenty teams played Wednesday night, and the 76ers generated the second-fewest points of any of them against the NBA’s second worst defense, the Minnesota Timberwolves. But that doesn’t matter, because they finally found a team that had no answer for the league’s worst offense. With the
