Being a fan of the Sixers over the last six years has been a truly unique experience.
We’ve stuck by the team through terrible seasons, incessant roster instability, knee injuries, foot injuries, mysterious injuries, the decision to draft Jahlil Okafor, and the realization that out of all the people who love to argue on Twitter, our general manager was five of them.
We knew there was a light at the end of the tunnel, and we’re finally seeing it. But our Sixers fandom is different than that of any other team. For us, it really is personal.
