The Ricky 2020 Awards, Sixers Big Win Over Raptors
Positive pod! Joel Embiid is playing as well as he ever has, and Tobias Harris had a game worthy of getting his $10 million back from Shake Milton, and somehow got a win over the Raptors at home. We talk about the win, and Simmons' troubles around the win. We reveal the winners the of The Ricky Best of 2020, discuss AU's best 76 Sixers Moments of the year, and the one of the biggest debates in Ricky history: Who would win in a fight, a tank or one billion babies.

The New Sixers Look Eerily Similar To The Old Sixers

We talk about the bright spots in Shake Milton, and Tyrese Maxey, Tobias Harris waking up, Joel Embiid being the best player on the team on both offense and defense, the development of Ben Simmons, and if we'll spend all year wondering if a James Harden trade is happening. We also discuss the categories for the Ricky Best Of 2020 (vote here), dip into Bryan Colangelo Relationship Advice, and who might be the Frosty Freeze Out guy this year.
