Doc Rivers says Sixers are 'not going to give up' on Ben Simmons in First Take interview

by Kyle Neubeck

In an attempt to set the record straight while promoting a new podcast venture on First Take, Doc Rivers tried to send a simple message to Ben Simmons during an interview with Stephen A. Smith: we'd like to have you back, and I didn't say what everyone thinks I said after the Game 7 loss against Atlanta.

PhillyVoice Recommends: Deathloop is a game worth your time (and money)

by Kyle Neubeck

Arkane's game Deathloop arrives at perhaps the perfect moment in modern history, a time when we feel stuck and so many days feel all-too-similar to the one before it. A stealth-action game with heart and spunk, Deathloop is a game you should consider getting to know on your platform of choice, PS5 or PC, and the first entry in our Recommends series.

Why the Ben Simmons trade saga continues to drag on

by Kyle Neubeck

Packages involving young players and picks have been there and were there for most of the offseason. They could likely make such a deal tomorrow if they chose. But looking at all the options on the table, the Sixers prefer Simmons being on the floor and playing for them compared to dealing him for offers that cut into their title odds, sources say. The premise of dealing Simmons for assets and developing talent rests on making another more important move down the road, which people with the team have scoffed at recently.

Mailbag: Joel Embiid foes, Charles Bassey's contract, Deathloop, and Spain recommendations

by Kyle Neubeck

It has been a (relatively) quiet week on the Ben Simmons trade front, and at this stage of the offseason, that means it's quiet in Sixers land. That's quite alright, frankly, as it gives everyone a chance to take a breath and collect themselves before drama inevitably ensues in a couple of weeks.

Can Tyrese Maxey handle a starter's role for Sixers in 2021-22?

by Kyle Neubeck

There's nowhere to go but down from here for Tyrese Maxey. He's in the sweetest spot any young athlete can be in Philadelphia — good enough to excite the fans, young enough to avoid the burden of expectations. He doesn't have the pressure to carry the team to wins like Joel Embiid, the contract to rile people up like Tobias Harris, or the track record to set people off like Ben Simmons. Young Maxey can strive to reach his dreams without yet worrying too much about coming up short of them.
