We're not embarrassed! VJ Edgecombe balled out, the Sixers stepped up, and Andre Drummond hit a three. We talk about all of it and say who we're rooting for in the rest of the playoffs.

The Sixers went down early, then progressively went down by more and more as the game went on. Not great! But we do have some fun Doc Rivers quotes to laugh at.

The Sixers put together a good team win over the Magic. It was the Drummond game, the Maxey game, the Oubre game, etc… We talk about the win (it counts), Embiid returning to the team, and the series against the Celtics.

The Sixers beat the Bucks, and the Magic lost to the backup Celtics, so the Sixers will host the play-in game on Wednesday in Philadelphia. We talk about what we’re hoping to get out of the play-in and playoffs, more on the Embiid and his appendicitis, an amazing clip of Michael Rubin talking about the White Party, and Mike gets to hear the new Doc Rivers song as he gets fired.

Joel Embiid has had many different injuries for the Sixers, but this is his first appendicitis. Joel Embiid had surgery on Thursday, just hours before the game against the Rockets. The Sixers will likely be without him for the play in and first round of the playoffs, if they make it. We talk about the situation, and the loss to the Rockets.

The Sixers beat the Wizards, and Sixers Adam joins Spike and Mike to talk about it. We discuss Paul George's play since his return, the Sixers issues on defense and rebounding, potentially playing Adem Bona with Embiid, and Andre Drummond's corner threes. Then we tell Adam how to hide in the Sixers film sessions, talk about what Evan Turner's problem is, and congratulate Doc Rivers.

Fresh legs! The Sixers are back, baby. We enter the tease as they beat the Hornets, inching them closer to the sixth seed. We talk about the win led by Maxey’s surprise return, their continued rebounding deficit, and how the NBA has proposed to fix the tanking issue.
