It is the current Philadelphia 76ers, who are off to a 3-14 record and are off to a worst start.
This season, Philadelphia was considered the best dark horse in the East. Joel Embiid, last season's regular league MVP, who was considered the league's best big man along with Nikola Jokic, is in good shape. Guard Tyreece Maxey has grown.
The Los Angeles Clippers brought in Paul George, the forward who will be the winning pitcher. With the big three at the center, Philadelphia dreamed of becoming president.
This is why last season's defending champion Boston Celtics were evaluated as the most powerful dark horse to keep in check.
However, it's terrible.
The U.S. sports media ESPN reported on the 28th (Korea time) 'Philadelphia is on the verge of a shipwreck. Prior to the season, he was considered one of the favorites in the Eastern Conference. However, it is no longer certain that Philadelphia will make it to the playoff play-in tournament.'" According to ESPN's own statistical data BPI, Philadelphia needs 33 wins to make it to the tournament-in. Philadelphia is expected to win 36.3 games in the future. However, the multiplier does not take into account the injury variables of Embiid and George.
Embiid referred to road management 'Official' just before this season.
Embiid is a player who plays like a regular league monster, but is weak at the end of the season and in the playoffs. It was analyzed that it was a burden of physical strength due to over-pace at the beginning of the season.
Therefore, Embiid said he would manage thoroughly in the regular league. However, he participated in the 2024 Paris Olympics and has repeatedly missed a long time and returned briefly at the beginning of the season due to a knee injury, one of the chronic injuries. George, too, is not helping the team because of injuries. Maxey also suffered an injury early in the season. After all, Philadelphia has the worst record of 3 wins and 14 losses.
