The Sixers at Four Weeks- This Joke isn't Funny Anymore

Are you smiling?

The Sixers are 0-13. If you want to look at the positive, they lost by single-digits to New York last night, but that's cold comfort.  This team is pathetically bad, and lost by 26 points to Phoenix the night before. Neither of these teams is a title contender, so this is bad. They did play a title contender this week, San Antonio, but they blew the Sixers out too.

The bad thing is, Carter-Williams is back, and playing reasonably decent on the stat sheet. This team just can't beat anyone. They have 69 games remaining this season, and to avoid their own record for futility (9 wins), they have to go 10-59. That's .145 ball, which is terrible, but do you think this team can win 15% of it's remaining games? I'm struggling with that. If anything, it's more likely than not that they do break the record for worst seasons. It's also more than possible that this team can break their own record for consecutive losses. Futility is abundant!

I stand by my assessment that only Carter-Williams, Noel, Embiid, Wroten, and McDaniels of this current crop look like they have any future here. The rest of the roster is basically D-League level talent, if that, and could possibly lose to a team of our over-seas "assets" that we own the rights to. That's pathetic.
