It must be a dream: the Eagles win the Super Bowl, Villanova wins the NCAA championship and the Philadelphia 76ers win 52 games (it feels so good to write this). But as we know, dreams do come true and some dreams are predictable.
Allow me to crow for a few seconds only, but in my post before the season, I predicted: “If healthy, the 76ers should win 54.7 games.” But as we know, the team was not healthy, as No. 1 draft pick Markelle Fultz missed 68 games, Joel Embiid missed 19 games and rookie Furkan Korkmaz missed half the season, so it’s understandable that my prediction was slightly off.
