by Evan Macy

Nine seasons and six top 10 draft picks later, The Process has gotten the Sixers right back where they started before Sam Hinkie was hired in 2013.

What they're saying about the Sixers: Should Tyrese Maxey start Game 7? Are Ben Simmons' days in Philly numbered?

by Evan Macy

The Sixers continue to tug on this city's heartstrings as the team finally closed out a game thanks to heroics from Tyrese Maxey, Seth Curry and Joel Embiid in Game 6, forcing a decisive Game 7 at home Sunday night.

Key Phillies keep getting injured, and it could cost them the playoffs

by Evan Macy

There is no way to really prove that the Phillies would have a better record right now if they were able to keep their key players healthy. But it's also pretty hard to deny that it's been a major factor in them being able to put together any kind of momentum or consistency this season.

Do the Sixers really still have the second best chances to win the NBA Finals?

by Evan Macy

The team that took the floor for the second half of Monday's eventful Game 4 did not look like a serious NBA Finals contender. The defense was sloppy, the offense was sloppier snd Joel Embiid went 0-for-12 from the field in the last 24 minutes as the Sixers lost by three in a game they led at one point by double-digits.

Is Phillies red-hot June a sign of things to come or a short-lived fluke?

Sixers

What they're saying: Joel Embiid's motivation, 'The Process' on trial and Damian Lillard to the Sixers?

by Evan Macy

The last time the 76ers advanced past the second round of a playoff series was 20 years ago. After bouncing back from a shocking loss to start their series against the Hawks, the Sixers tied things up at 1-game apiece on the heals of a dominating Joel Embiid effort and some other killer performances.

Luke Williams’ walk-off homer is just what boring Phillies need... they hope

by Evan Macy

Can 24-year-old Luke Williams, a former third round pick utility man from California who before a month ago had never even sniffed the Triple-A level save the Phillies season?

Phillies

Don't expect Dombrowski to do much at trade deadline unless Phillies are in first

by Evan Macy

The Phillies are a few games back in the NL East, a division that is the most evenly distributed in baseball and that could be the Phillies for the taking if they get their crap together.
