Limited Upside podcast, Episode 47: 76ers fans refuse to let anyone slander Ben Simmons

We begin our offseason look at all 30 teams with the 76ers, who are preparing for the dawn of a new era.

It’s the offseason, so we’re beginning a regular series checking in on every NBA team’s summer moves with the writers of our outstanding team sites. First up: the 76ers, who also happen to be our intrepid co-host’s favorite team. SBNation.com’s Tyler Tynes (a Philly fan) and Liberty Ballers managing editor Jake Pavorsky join us to gauge the temperature of the Philadelphia fanbase in the post-Process era.

Among the topics discussed:

  • How much will Jerryd Bayless, Gerald Henderson and especially Dario Saric help next year?
  • How good is Ben Simmons, really? How do you build the right kind of team around him?
  • Which big man needs to be traded? Is it Jahlil Okafor? Is it Nerlens Noel? Does it have to be anybody?
  • What are reasonable expectations for next year? (Our panelists had a unique way of defining “reasonable”).

We’re going in order from worst to first last year, so the Lakers and Nets will follow. Keep checking back all summer.
