Philadelphia 76ers' Struggles
The Philadelphia 76ers are currently performing poorly in the NBA, with a record of 2-12, which many attributed to significant internal issues and injuries. The team's recent meeting was highlighted as a potential turning point, but the subsequent performance against the Memphis Grizzlies only reinforced their struggles. Joel Embiid's late arrival to the game raised eyebrows, as he engaged in minimal warm-up before achieving an unimpressive 35 points. This situation has created a sense of crisis within the team, as players navigate trust issues and inconsistent chemistry on the court.
