How many times has championship winning teams purposely tanked it with results to back it up?

The Sixers as I mentioned a few weeks ago had a tough schedule to start PLUS an additional eight more road games than home games at one point. That's brutal.

Now they also had to do their part and take care of the basketball. They seem to be doing a better job of that.

Ben Simmons + good veteran PG= Good squad next year

So, right now if you had to offer an over\under on wins for the 76ers next year....what is it?

Too many variables.

I think the league is going to change a ton next offseason.

You throw a Simmons and Mike Conley into the lineup that's a playoff contender and 2-8 in the East very little seperation.

I'm not writing off a Sixers rebuild even if they finish poorly and say win 10-15 games this season. The free agent class and what appears to be change of guard in the league with some guys getting older...recipe for dynamic change.

For some of those mentioned reasons i didn't agree with your 15-16 record limiting their capacity in 16-17
