The Philadelphia 76ers are very good at basketball. They are objectively more talented better than the Phoenix Suns, but don’t tell any player on the Suns that. They will have none of it.
To get the major caveats out of the way, the Sixers were down their best big man, but so were the Suns, so call it even.
One of the reasons the Suns have had so much early season success has been their bench play. Specifically, Frank Kaminsky has been playing like he is a Wisconsin Badger once again, and Jevon Carter has been careering behind the arc on top of his ridiculous, bulldog defense.
