Number 1 seed in the East with 17 games to go, Joel Embiid playing like a man possessed and still one (1) George Hill away.
5 Big Questions
Do we know how good the Sixers actually are?
Probablyyy not (yet) atleast. I say that to say, no I'm not expecting them to fall off a cliff in the playoffs, but aside from (hopefully, Giannis Knee and Kawhi foot pending) a full strength vs full strength matchup with the Clippers tomorrow night and Bucks next week, there hasn't been THAT many measuring stick/barometer games this shortened season, for various COVID & injury related reasons for the Sixers and their opponents. However, you still have to play the games and win them and our guys are doing that at a pretty high clip and I believe in my heart of hearts that they'll have another gear left when May & June come around.
Will Tobias the Closer carry over to the playoffs?
If this team wants any shot at an Eastern Conference title and finals trip he damn well better.
Is George Hill still alive?
Yes, last seen on the Sixers bench with both hands and legs attached, so there's hope.
Are you worried about playing any specific one or two teams in the playoffs?
No. I'm not scared or cowering or complaining (that's for Utah Jazz fans) but the Knicks would be an annoying 5 games, and a Heat series would piss me off so much because I know how much Jimmy hates the Sixers outside of Joel Embiid and that's enough to fuel him in a blood thirsty way.
Is Adam Silver going to prison?
Yes. He will pay for his transgressions.
*Bonus Question
What Process Sixer are you bringing back for the playoffs?
Tony Wroten. Without question.
Earl Simmons, known as DMX to the world, passed away last week and the way too young age of 50. Our friend Ike Reese joined Spike and Mutlu on the Carl Landry Record Club podcast to do a full episode dedicated to the life and music of DMX. Listen to it here.
The Rest From The Best
That was fun! Atleast parts were. Our guy Sixers Adam with Three Normal Things from last night's showdown with Brooklyn.
Later for your Jimmy's and Masai's and Tatum & Jaylen's. The Utah Jazz are the Sixers truest and pettiest rivals, or atleast Andrew Unterberger thinks so.
