NBA Power Rankings: Clippers are too good to ignore

93. The Process was trusted and it finally got the Philadelphia 76ers a win. The Process I refer to of course isn’t Sam Hinkie’s often criticized rebuilding concept, but the one, the only, Joel Embiid. Still on his 24-minute restriction, Embiid pumped in 25 points and helped the Sixers snatch victory away from the Indiana Pacers in Philly. Pulling out a crunch time victory in overtime is huge for this young group. Every game is a chance for them to learn and grow. Learning how to win is hard (just ask some of the other teams in the bottom half of these rankings) and any chance the players get to experience this year should be highlighted. This team will be much different in the second half of the season when Ben Simmons returns to action, but for now Embiid is THE reason to keep tabs on the 76ers. His play, skill and charisma make him the type of player that everyone roots for. The European imports of Sergio Rodriguez and Dario Saric have been fun as well and this is a team that is well worth your time and possibly League Pass money as well (I really want to rant on how horrible the broadband changes to League Pass have been for this season, but I’ll save that for another day and another post). The only way things could get better in Philly is if they are able to cash in on two top five picks in the 2017 NBA Draft.. (1-9). Previous: . Philadelphia 76ers. 28. team
