76ers just made a brilliant trade Heat should've made years ago
The Miami Heat can only be left kicking themselves after the move the Philadelphia 76ers just made.
PHILADELPHIA -- Before Monday night's game between the76ers and Heat,Joel Embiid-- who along with James Hardenwould be sitting out against Eastern Conference-leading Miami -- told second-year guard Tyrese Maxey to get Philadelphia a win in his absence.
After Thursday’s win over the Kings, the Sixers are 26-21 on the year. They are two games behind the fifth-seeded Cleveland Cavaliers, and hold a one-game lead over the Miami Heat. If the season ended today, the Sixers are automatically in the playoffs. But a slip in the standings places them in Play-In territory.
