First, a disclaimer: I’m one of the new guys here at LB, but also an old guy (with the goal of just getting older). That said, the story that follows should be construed not as a back-in-my-day screed, but rather as a reminder that the more things change, the more they stay the same.
Our subject is training camp, which the Sixers will begin in the very near future at The Citadel, and how it is a significant part of the larger process of whittling down the roster and determining roles. This year guys like Paul Reed, Charles Bassey and Isaiah Joe will seek to solidify a spot, whether on the team or (perhaps) in the rotation, always a fascinating process and the subject of endless debate on social media and the like.
