Being a Sixers fan the past 5 years has been a swift kick to the nards. And with such unabashed tanking, they’ve only gotten the 3rd pick in the lotto the past two seasons, but NO MORE! Those kicked-in nards are falling dropping with the fortune of winning the lottery, which hopefully in this case goes better than the winner in Shirley Jackson’s world…

If you missed the balls dropping last night, the Philadelphia 76ers “won the lottery” by getting the first pick. They had the most balls as well, something rarely said about the Sixers franchise lately. We get the metaphor already! Watch Philly screw it up too… Looking at their 1st-round picks the past few years, their best one was probably Nikola Vucevic… That didn’t end up working out well for Philly! So I expect them to pass on Ben Simmons and Brandon Ingram and go, I dunno, the last of the Plumlee clan so they can have Duke twin towers… Big man is a need for them right?! RIGHT?!
