BIRMINGHAM, Mich. – The 76ers looked like a team that would have happily faced the Detroit Pistons here at Seaholm High School in 11:30 a.m. Monday.
Joel Embiid had a rigid look on his face while sitting alone in the Seaholm bleacher after the team’s shootaround concluded around 11:15. J.J. Redick was also “mean-mugging” when approached by a reporter.
The guard responded, “I’m ready to go.”
So are all of the Sixers.
The 0-3 team is looking for its first victory in Monday’s 7 p.m. matchup against the Pistons at Little Caesars Arena.
That’s why Monday morning’s shootaround had an element of “let’s get going,” coach Brett Brown said.
