The Sixers: Maxey, Embiid, George, Edgecombe, And The Future (PST Episode 646)

Author: The Philadelphia Sports Table December 11, 2025 Duration: 1:04:20
The Philadelphia 76ers have so much promise in their backcourt while also have an albatross that is the Joel Embiid health situation that isn’t helping this team. We’ve seen real good stuff from the Sixers this season, and not-so-good stuff. This week, Sean Barnard from Fox Sports Philly’s The Gambler and Draft Kings joined us for a great discussion about what we’ve seen from this team, and where they may be heading here in mid-December.
But first, the guys dove into some Eagles and NFL talk. They discussed the Eagles offensive narrative, and also talked about Philip Rivers coming back to the NFL for the Colts at the age of 44. (Approx. 5:05)
From there, they got into a discussion about recent moves the Phillies have made: re-signing Kyle Schwarber and extending manager Rob Thomson until 2027. Plus, they reflected on a tweet from Buster Olney about players in the Steroid Era and how the MLB Hall Of Fame has handled that situation over the decades. (Approx. 27:05)
Then they talked about whether the Sixers should look at brining Malik Beasley onto the team to help with 3-point shooting. (Approx. 41:05)
What they threw down on the Table this week was a great and in-depth conversation with Sean Barnard from Fox Sports Philly’s The Gambler about where this Sixers team is at as we enter mid-December. Is Nick Nurse giving Tyrese Maxey too many minutes per game? Can the team dig itself out of the 3rd quarter narrative? How has Paul George contributed when on the court?  All of this and much more this week on the Table! (Approx. 49:05)
