I’m generally a pessimistic person. Just a fact. Some of you may have reached that conclusion after reading my articles the past two weeks, often highlighting the Sixers’ problems rather than their bright spots.
Well, for a change of pace, I decided to write about the Sixer-y things that do bring me joy. But not just the basic, “at least Joel Embiid is awesome” water cooler talk that’s been popular this past week (which is understandable, he was awesome prior to suffering his minor ankle injury against Portland).
I want to talk about the small stuff, tendencies and plays so minuscule that they often don’t make the post-game highlights on YouTube, but warm the heart of a basketball nerd like myself.
