Compared to the end of last season, the Philadelphia 76ers bench has improved significantly this summer. Head Coach Brett Brown struggled at times last season to find his starters quality rest with the shallow bench. Heading into this upcoming season, Brown could theoretically have a 12-man rotation with the newly added depth.
Towards the end of last season and into the playoffs, the Sixers really only had two playable bench players in Mike Scott and James Ennis. Boban Marjanovic and Greg Monroe could be plugged in at the center spot, but both were too much of a liability on defense.
