With Tobias Harris on board, the Philadelphia 76ers possess arguably the NBA’s most dynamic five-man lineup outside Golden State. Few teams can abuse defenses to the extent Philadelphia can, using unmatched size and physicality to their advantage.
Harris has been key to the Sixers’ success since the trade deadline, balancing out the rotations with another star-caliber piece who can elevate the withering second unit. He’s also another elite shooter and a low-usage star in Brett Brown’s offensive arsenal — the ideal fit on paper.
It appeared as if his fit was seamless in the early going, but the honeymoon period is over.
