The Sixers are having a fine-ish season sitting at 20-8. Looking like a sure-fire playoff team this season on the surface looks successful. That hasn’t quite been the case as the expectations going into the season were to dominate. The team has moments where they look unbeatable, usually when playing some good ol’ fashion bully ball, but more often than not their wins are far too close for comfort.
The Sixers have a few different issues facing them. Joel Embiid’s inconsistent play, Ben Simmons’ lack of growth, Tobias Harris’ fit in the offense, and game managing decisions by Coach Brett Brown that have hurt the team’s ability to win games.
