The Rights To Ricky Sanchez: The Sixers (76ers) Podcast

We begin our eighth season of pods about the Sixers (kind of) with predictions for how we think the season will go, over under bets for the entire season (some serious, some not so serious), and a draft of Bold Predictions as Andrew Unterberger joins us to score how bold they actually are. We also update feelings on what's going on with a James Harden trade for Ben Simmons.  The Rights To Ricky Sanchez is presented by Draft Kings Sportsbook. 

The Sixers... are back! They opened their mini-preseason against the Celtics, and we will count this victory. We talk about Shake Milton's big game, whether Tobias Harris looked any more decisive, if Ben Simmons looks all the way back from injury, as well as the additions, Seth Curry, Danny Green, Tyrese Maxey and more. We also do some insane readings from Sam Hinkie's new website, check in on Sixers Adam's first day as a credentialed Ricky member, and a disturbing sitting while wiping story.

James Harden to Philadelphia rumors get stronger, and we speculate on how it will affect Ben Simmons, what the trade reaction would ultimately be like if it happens, and how tempting a Tyler Herro offer to Houston would be. We discuss the eight most non-Harden questions that will determine the Sixers season, Doc Rivers' continued public feud with Paul George, Kyrie Irving's most recent comments, and Harden being ranked 9th in the ESPN NBA Top 100.

The James Harden trade rumors continue, and keep involving the Sixers. We talk about the rumors, and what the situation means about Harden and the league. We discuss the ESPN Top 100 NBA players and where current and former Sixers fall on the list. And Danny Green is the first one to ever think Ben Simmons might want to shoot threes. We also give out the first ever By Nature Pet Food Soft Shit Award.  The Rights To Ricky Sanchez is presented by Draft Kings Sportsbook. 

Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid both spoke for the first time this year, and talked about the offense, accountability and their new surroundings. We discuss them both along with Simmons' canceled media appearance. We go over the first half of the Sixers schedule, and discuss the Kyrie Irving comments about refusing to do media availability.

The Sixers had their first individual workouts. We discuss what quotes were truth, and which ones were lies. We talk about the dysfunction in Los Angeles with Rivers' Clippers team, and what can be learned from it in Philadelphia. Also discussed are the Sixers absence from Christmas and maybe they shouldn't be televised at all, Wall for Westbrook, and people listening to the pod too much as proven in their Spotify year-end wrap-ups.  The Rights To Ricky Sanchez is presented by Draft Kings Sportsbook.

The Sixers continue their offseason love letter to Joel Embiid by signing Justin Anderson. We talk about the Sixers roster and what could happen with the final spot. Then we go around the Eastern Conference to talk about whether each team is better or worse after their offseason moves. Finally, we dip into the mailbag, and present a potential Twitter verification of Sixers Adam before Mike. The Rights To Ricky Sanchez is presented by Draft Kings Sportsbook.

We had big plans for Zhaire Smith... they didn't work out. We talk about the career and trade of Zhaire Smith, and whether the Sixers did the right thing by moving on in a trade for Tony Bradley. We discuss a possible trade for former Sixers Lou Williams. And we talk to Sixers and Liberty Ballers blog O.G.

What a draft day! Seems like old times. Al Horford and Josh Richardson are gone, Danny Green and Seth Curry are here, and the Sixers add Tyrese Maxey, Isaiah Joe, and Paul Reed in the draft.
