How can the 76ers get to the TOP OF THE EAST? 👀 Perk says ‘TRUST THE PROCESS!’ | NBA Countdown

The first game of our double header tonight is an Eastern Conference showdown between the Knicks and the Sixers and friends that gets us to our opening tip the Knicks they will have their work cut out for them as Joel andb he’s been on a tear 15 straight games

With 30 points and he’s trending toward his third straight scoring title as well averaging a league best 34.8 points per game and the Sixers they are the three seed in the Eastern Conference entering tonight’s action five of their next six games they’re at home and they are at

Least a 60% favorite in each of their next 10 games according to ESPN analytics as we say hello to our ESPN 2 audience as well all right so let’s dive into the Sixers a bit more there is no question right the Sixers they’re an upper aong team alongside the bucks but

It feels like right the Celtics are at the top and then there’s everybody else perks so what can the Sixers do to catch them trust the process trust the process as bad as I want to come on here and say make a big big trade get Pascal seum the

76ers are just fine it’s about health when it comes to the postseason with Joel and be he could be the best player in any Series against anybody Tyrese Maxi is going to continue to grow and I get it we look at the others and they

May not be steak and shrimp but damn it they chickens and waffles and they are still good when you look at DeAnthony Melton when you look at Nicholas baton Patrick Beverly being that veteran leader in the locker room and that damn Nick nurse a champion caliber coach just

Continue to trust the process throughout this season perk just finished his plate at fixon that’s why we’re talking about chicken and waffles but I was thinking of a different way to say trust the process and I’m going to say stick The Landings because they’ve been consistent

They played 33 games and what do they have right now they came into the season with a lot of questions and now Joel embid and his play has put an exclamation part on this uh you know exclamation mark on this team leading the league in points a game then you

Have the candidate for most improved in Tyrese Maxi you’re looking at yourself at third in the East stick The Landing if you’re able to continue at this pace through the uh the end of the season you put yourself in a position where you have options like you don’t have to go

Out there and go get another big Superstar you can get a compliment because you have pieces that really make a great team yeah so part of the stick in the landing will be to add to this roster if you look at the other teams in the competition for the east or even for

The title you look at a team like Boston they’ve made their moves you look at Milwaukee they’ve made their moves the Clippers they’ve made their moves Denver’s made their moves even Minnesota made their moves Philly has all kind of options with their roster over $100 million in expiring contracts a whole

Plethora of draft picks that they can trade and a general manager who’s an expert at making big inseason deals this team can add multiple players in potentially multiple trades between now and the trade deadline and that makes them the most upwardly mobile team in

The whole NBA in my view and I think for Philly they bought themselves some time now with Tyrese Maxi’s development the arrival of Nick nuron how that’s been received with that group and so if there’s ‘s not a big deal for them at the trade deadline and there may not be

Any real stars available as Brian said they can have Max cap space this summer they can use that a trade free agency Su becomes available and if it’s not there in the summer they could resign a Tobias Harris to a one-year deal potentially and wait and kind of Kick the cam down

The road but they have I think a couple of star players guys would like to play with they have the picks to go out from the Harden deal to go out and be able to improve this team but Maxi’s develop and his arrival as a star in this league

It takes them it takes some of the pressure off about Joel embiid feeling hey it’s all or nothing this year it isn’t there’s a runway in the future with a 23-year-old emerging all-nba guard for Joel embiid right because as you mentioned earlier on Sports Center

It feels like Joel embiid as long as he sees that potential that is what’s most important for the Philadelphia 76ers

Adrian Wojnarowski, Chiney Ogwumike, Brian Windhorst and Kendrick Perkins join Malika Andrews on NBA Countdown to preview the New York Knicks vs. the Philadelphia 76ers and discuss what the Sixers need to do to get to the top of the Eastern Conference.

  1. Joel’s playmaking and defense have improved. Everyone is playing well. Mfs bring up the playoffs because they know there’s nothing to criticize 😂 they’ll deliver now that the drama is behind them. Not only that nurse is using movement and having Joel be a passing hub.

  2. If the 76ers don’t make the finals this year what will the excuse be? Joel was already mvp last year . The harden distraction is gone

  3. Bro, no matter how much they say trust the process. This dude is not going to want to title with the 76ers

  4. Sixers need to trust the process 😂 What else have they been doing so far? Unfortunately “the process” forgets to turn up in game 6/7 playoff deciders.
