The Philadelphia 76ers are down 2-0 in their first-round playoff series against the Boston Celtics, and there are many reasons why. Some of it simply comes from missing Ben Simmons, whose absence creates a host of problems at both ends of the floor. A lot of it is an accumulation of years of mistakes made by the Sixers' ownership and front office, who have squandered trade assets, built a team that's ill equipped to support their young stars, and drastically overpaid for Tobias Harris and Al Horford who aren’t good enough to justify their salaries and don’t fit their intended roles on this team.
