This year’s frantic NBA offseason has finally died down, and we now have a clear picture of the revamped Philadelphia 76ers‘ new-look roster. Considering the moves made this offseason, it is obvious what Elton Brand and the rest of the front office plan to focus on this upcoming season: size and defense. They certainly succeeded at this goal and now boast not only the biggest roster in the NBA, but also a defensive rotation that has the build of one of the league’s most formidable groups in recent memory.
The bench has without a doubt a very good defensive outlook, but if this team is to reach their lofty defensive potential it will most definitely begin with the starters.
