The turnaround

The Sixers preseason starts 10/1 this is the start of something very exciting. The Sixers shocked the world last year, going from a team of ragtag losers to a team that meshed together perfectly. This team for years has been in the rebuilding stages, and now they finally have it. They have the players, they have the skills, they have the coaching they have the pieces. This team can actually do it, they can shock the world, they will not only be competitive, but they could be champions. 

This team has so much potential, the most seen in a long-time with a Sixers squad. If you just look at their roster you can see the strengths. Players like Simmons, Embiid, and Saric coming into their own last season, finally showing what we all had been waiting for. This paired with surprises like McConnell and Redick, the team looks like it is in a good position to be very competitive once again. The Sixers have also brought in several great additions during the offseason veteran Wilson Chandler and rookie Zhaire Smith. This team has the potential to make an unbelievable run this season, and I would not be surprised if a big addition comes during the season if the Sixers prove their competitiveness. This addition could be on the scale of a player like a Kemba or Tyreke. Though it may sound crazy, these players could be huge additions to the Sixers lineup. 

The key this season will be Fultz, I would like to see him standout and step up. The guy has the potential to be a star, however the Sixers went too easy on him and he did not trust himself enough. Fultz needs to show that he belongs in a starter position. He needs to show that he can add value to the team, and propel them into super stardom. 

The Sixers will be very competitive this year, and I wholeheartedly believe that they will be a semi-final contender, and even possible an NBA Champion. If all the pieces fall into place, it can take them to the next level. They can position themselves as a team of young superstars that have the stamina, skills, and abilities to take them all the way. The Sixers may be the most exciting team in Philadelphia this year!
