The idea this offseason was for the Sixers to learn from their mistakes in the playoffs and fix them. After missing out on the star hunt, that strategy now focused on the bench, as many of the moves made centered around fixing flaws and gaining more depth to combat deeper, stronger teams. Trades were made, free agents were signed, and now, we have a good idea who will be in the rotation consistently. Last year, bench players put up decent numbers, but when it came down to crunch time, they faltered. The group of players this year that will command the second unit won’t have that problem, and if they can all put up consistent numbers, then the Sixers could have one of the best bench units in the NBA.
