For star-crossed Sixers, it's the hope that kills

Leave it to the Philadelphia 76ers to pull off an offseason in which they sign the best free-agent wing on the market, extend their young All-Star lead guard, draft the current Rookie of the Year front-runner 16th overall, fill out the roster with established role players on team-friendly deals, and put all those pieces around a former MVP who scored like prime Wilt Chamberlain last season ... only to have the whole thing blow up in their faces in less than a month.The disconnect between the (ahem) process and the result feels fitting for a team that's been a mess of contradictions since Joel Embiid debuted some eight years ago. From Embiid's first full season in 2017-18 through the 2023-24 campaign, only three teams won more regular-season games than Philadelphia. All three (Milwaukee, Boston, and Denver) won championships in that period. The Sixers never made it past the second round.There were damaging decisions from three separate front offices along the way (the Markelle Fultz gambit, Mikal Bridges for Z

After disastrous season, Raptors' future still uncertain

During a 2023-24 season in which just about everything that could go wrong did, the Toronto Raptors finally did what they should've done a year earlier and committed to building toward the future. The vision of that future, though, remains fairly hazy, and it's hard not to wonder where this franchise - now fully divorced from the last vestiges of its golden era - is going.The outline of a roadmap has been drawn in broad strokes. The Raptors are clearly building around Scottie Barnes, the 22-year-old do-it-all forward whom they just lavished with a five-year max contract that could climb as high as $270 million with incentives. Alongside him, they'll try to develop Immanuel Quickley - the sweet-shooting combo guard who just landed a five-year, $175-million commitment of his own - into a complementary pillar. RJ Barrett, still just 24, will slot between them on the wing and try to sustain the career-best production he manufactured after arriving with Quickley from New York in the OG Anunoby trade.That core trio

With the 2023-24 campaign approaching, we’re diving deep into some of the players we’re most interested to watch. Next up, two players who just got traded for each other at very different points in their careers enter new situations with very different stakes and very different things to prove.Previous entries: Austin Reaves; Victor Wembanyama and Chet Holmgren; Jaden McDaniels.The Golden State Warriors signaled their intent to move away from their two-timelines approach at last season’s trade d…

Is Josh Okogie the final piece of the Suns' puzzle? - theScore

The Phoenix Suns’ blockbuster trade for Kevin Durant was a no-brainer for a team in their position, and one they’d surely make a thousand times over.Even at age 34, Durant is one of the game’s five best players; stars of that caliber never, ever get traded, let alone with three-and-a-half seasons left on their contracts. The move has paid immediate dividends; Phoenix is 3-0 with Durant in the lineup, he’s averaged 27 points on 81% true shooting in those three games, and the team has outscored op…

Are the Clippers a sleeping giant or a paper tiger? - theScore

When the Los Angeles Clippers’ current nucleus came together on a fateful July night back in 2019, it felt like a seismic event, and not just because it coincided with a literal earthquake in the L.A. area. By pairing the superstar wing tandem of Paul George and Kawhi Leonard - the latter of whom was just three weeks removed from a championship run that culminated in Finals MVP honors - the Clippers seemed to have radically altered the NBA landscape.But three-and-a-half years into their team-bui…

Trends to watch: The delicate balance between interior and 3-point ...

Now that it’s 2023, we’re looking at some stylistic trends that could define the NBA in the calendar year to come. Today: the tricky balance of rim defense and 3-point defense. Previously: The rise of offensive rebounding | The viability of tall ball There are plenty of reasons why offensive efficiency is at an all-time high, and one of the most frequent causes you’ll hear cited is the proliferation of 3-point shooting. But while that trend indeed contributed massively to lifting scoring out of…

When the Golden State Warriors traded for Andrew Wiggins during their miserable, Steph Curry-less, pandemic-shortened 2019-20 season, Wiggins’ fit with the optimized version of his new team seemed tenuous. At its best, Golden State’s offense thrived on ball and player movement and rapid-fire decisio…

How the post became the NBA's new playmaking frontier - theScore

Was there a particular moment this season that brought Giannis Antetokounmpo’s playmaking development into sharp focus for you? To my eyes, that instance occurred during a mid-January game against the Atlanta Hawks.A second-quarter possession in that contest saw Giannis surveying his options from the left block after drawing Kevin Huerter on a cross-match. He’d immediately taken Huerter into the post on a cleared-out side of the floor, prompting an emergency double-team from John Collins. With P…

Many people saw the Jazz signing Rudy Gay this past offseason as a direct response to the second-round loss the Clippers had just handed Utah. The Jazz had compiled the NBA’s best regular-season record, but just as the Rockets had done to them in previous years, the Clippers ran them out of the post…
