Year in Review: A Letter to former Sixer teams

Thank you. I’m sure that’s not something that is said a lot about these teams, but these tough years changed how the Sixers work now and for that I am forever grateful. All the losing and constant roster turnover has led to this point, where a team constructed from years of tanking can finally compete.

Without Hollis Thompson there is no Ben Simmons, without Henry Sims there is no Joel Embiid. The list goes on and on with former Processors who aren’t in the NBA anymore but that is what made these years so equally ugly and beautiful at the same time.
