Sixers Continue to Celebrate Mediocrity
By Kyle Scott
Published:
Sixers PR man Mike Preston (@preston76) tweeted a link to this article, “Eight Teams that Could Crash the Playoffs Party” (is that like a pants party?), which lists the Sixers as a potential postseason candidate.
How much more can you temper expectations? Imagine if the Phillies tweeted out a link that gave them a chance of making the playoffs. We’d be outraged.
It’s not Preston’s fault- he has to make the best of an unfortunate situation. But when did it become acceptable for our basketball team to celebrate mediocrity like this?
