The Philadelphia 76ers are one of the more talented teams in the league led by a young duo in Joel Embiid and Ben Simmons who are still young enough to get better and aren’t even in their prime yet. That should make anybody excited about their potential and what they can accomplish.
Team president Daryl Morey, who is in his first season in Philadelphia, went out and he brought in good pieces surrounding the two stars. They brought in shooters like Seth Curry and Danny Green in order to get the proper floor spacing for the stars to operate.
Due to how talented Embiid and Simmons combined with the additions the team made in the offseason, they feel they are title contenders in the league. Morey joined Stephen A. Smith on ESPN on Wednesday and he affirmed that thought with a very simple proclamation. This team is championship or bust for the 2020-21 season.

The Sixers are taking on the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday night at home in what will be a very nice early test for them.
