Jaylen Brown: "The Process is back the fuck on." "The Process been over, but now the Process is back motherfucker."

Hey, just an FYI to anyone in Philly thinking of going down to CBP to get Noah Kahan merch early... Don't! 😂

New Sixers Pres of Basketball Ops Mike Gansey "I want guys that want to be in Philly ... I want fountains not drains. I want guys with high character, guys with high work ethic, and guys that want to be in Philadelphia."

I understand that calling traveling in the NBA doesn't really happen anymore... but this one looked obvious even in real time. KAT's left foot leaving the ground and landing before he puts the shot up?

Yoinked this from Instagram to share here because I can’t stop watching it (credit DoyleMedia on IG) Double-A ball. Same game, same inning, same pitch count, same pitch speed, same hit, same bounce, same play. Top and bottom of 4th 🤯

Tyrese Maxey hits another triple in Q4 and points to former Sixers teammate Tobias Harris on the Pistons' bench. Harris... does not seem amused.

Kelly Oubre Jr. apparently had his foot on the out-of-bounds line for this three pointer... It was not called OOB on the floor, and the Sixers were instead deducted 3 points during the next commercial break, over a minute of game later.

4-year-old Arthur Embiid with the slam dunk! (...with a little assistance from his seven-foot dad, Joel)

Joel Embiid is back to being introduced as "The Process" at Xfinity Mobile Arena! Embiid had said he was "surprised" he stopped being introduced as such for a bit.

Seeing little moments like this with Joel Embiid is driving me insane... Running out of ways to ask why this guy is out there. Organizational malpractice.

Looks like VJ Edgecombe is getting a VERY warm welcome home as he returns to the Bahamas following his rookie NBA season with the Sixers. Love to see it! (TikTok / haitgo_bahamas)

Jaylen Brown calls VJ Edgecombe and Tyrese Maxey back on stream. Both sound excited to be working with JB. Brown told VJ Edgecombe he's "a fan of his game" and told Maxey "we got work to do".

Joel Embiid on VJ Edgecombe "Philly got a good on in him. He's the guy. I'm telling you guys, [VJ] is something different. And this was only year one. Year 2 is gonna be better. Year 3 even better. He has a chance to be extremely special."

Joel Embiid is struggling with some abdominal pain after taking a shot from Mikal Bridges while setting a screen. He's staying in the game, but something to keep an eye on. Embiid had an appendectomy less than four weeks ago.

Myers on trading Jared McCain: "I'm not gonna disparage Daryl [Morey]. That was a few months ago. Right now, we have the 22nd pick, our job is to get that right. We have 3 second-round picks from it. We should be graded on the ultimate result of transactions like that."

This might be the best sequence of Sixers basketball I've seen in recent memory. Euphoric. Whatever you're doing, stop for a minute to watch this. Trust me. 🔥👇

Jaylen Brown on joining the Sixers: "The journey starts now. I've already hitting the guys about how to get in the gym, I know what it takes to build that camaraderie and chemistry. That's what I'm about. Philly, let's get it man."

Georges Niang being Georges Niang and chirping with Quentin Grimes in Q3. "If Joel was here, your ass would be in the corner. Joel here, you're in the corner. Tyrese [Maxey] here, you're in the corner."

Can someone explain to me how this was NOT called a backcourt violation by the Hawks? Look at the score! You can't make these officiating mistakes here!

Absolutely have to shout out Isaac Johnson (Hawaii). Didn't know much of anything about him before tonight, but I'll be watching him very closely now this Summer League. 20 PTS (6-10 FG, 4-6 3PT), 2 REB, 1 AST, 1 BLK in 19:32 off the bench for the Sixers vs. Pistons

Sixers' Tyrese Maxey is currently on Instagram Live asking for help on how to use a can opener 😂

Sixers new POBO Mike Gansey "We gotta get a good player [in the draft] and just building depth ... And a big part is internal development. Tyrese, VJ, some of our other young guys — they gotta get better too. "I think it's internal growth, [pick] 22, and then free agency."

Josh Harris to the Sixers fans: "I want you to know, no one is more frustrated than me that we haven't achieved our goals ... We owe it to you and the city to be better."

Daryl Morey: "The big move was with Jared. Because we're playing well, we were trying to upgrade the team and add to the team now." "We understand that we were looking to add now and nothing materialized."

Myers on 3 max deals under CBA: "Well we didn't get it done this year with 3 guys but that doesn't mean it can't be done. Depth may be more important than it's ever been ... Not to say this model doesn't work but we have to look at this year and be honest about it."
