Joel Embiid thinks 76ers have enough to go far

CAMDEN, N.J. -- The Philadelphia 76ers may have a bright future, but Joel Embiid is more excited about the team's present.

"I think our time is now," the All Star center said on Monday. ".... We have a special team, a lot of great guys. I don't think we need anybody else. We've just got to work with what we have. We have a special team and I feel like we have a pretty good chance to go far."

The Sixers have a 3-1 lead in their first-round series against the Miami Heat.
