Rights To Ricky Sanchez: The Sixers Podcast

The Sixers lost again on Tuesday night, and again to a bad team. Back to back losses to the Bulls and the Kings (without Joel Embiid) have people out for Brett Brown blood. We talk about how Brown has done this year and what responsibility he has to fix what's wrong. We also discuss Ben Simmons' decision to take six shots in last night's game. The live Ricky is FRIDAY! Tickets are $18 if you get them before Friday, and $20 on Friday.

Joel Embiid was great in the three overtime loss to the Thunder, but played 49 minutes, and 88 minutes in the last two games with a sore back. Is this too much? Would you trade for Paul George knowing he's a free agent? ESPN did a whole day on the Sixers and din't say the name, some Bryan Colangelo Relationship advice and Around The League with Ish Smith.  Amazing news, the first 200 people into Friday night's live Ricky, We Were Right Before Christmas, will get the incredible Allen Iverson Philly Word Art print, featuring all of his stats from his MVP Season. You'll also see a live BGN Radio pod, Larry Poff (he's our baby), the Ringer's Chris Ryan, and get a photo with Jake Pavorsky. First 150 people also get a $150 LL Pavorsky gift card (off a purchase of $500 or more) and there ARE KORNBLAU T-SHIRTS.

The losing streak is over! Somehow, the Sixers find a way to get it done in Minnesota. We talk about Embiid's performance, and the feature written about him by ESPN. We discuss ESPN Sixers Day, and dive into the mailbag to discuss a potential sneaker war on the team. We also argue about Bryan Colangelo's moves so far. 

Ben Simmons and Brandon Ingram met again, and Ingram got the better of it this time. How does that matchup look moving forward? We look at what went wrong in the home losses this week, and a rousing mailbag including a potential fistfight with Joel Embiid and TJ McConnell. Another thanks to Run The Jewels for agreeing to allow us to use the song "Legend Has It" as our new intro song. Listen to their music, buy their stuff and let them send you push notifications. 

It's been 300 days since Mike ended the podcast correctly. All it took was Trevor Booker, a second round pick, and Nik Stauskas to get it done. We react to the life and times of Jahlil Okafor the SIxer, and bid a fond farewell to the living pick swap, Nik Stauskas. There has also been an update on Markelle Fultz.  We also welcome brand new intro music to the podcast, give a big welcome to our friends (maybe one day) in...

It might seem a little excessive to do awards, grades, and predictions at the quarter-season mark of an NBA season, but to us it seems perfectly reasonable. We'll grade out all of the Sixers players, coach, and GM, as well as give out some normal, and some strange awards. We announced this week that The Ringer's Chris Ryan will join us on stage at We Were Right Before Christmas on December 22nd, and BGN Radio announced that Larry "He's Our Baby" Poff will join them on stage. It's really turning into the biggest, most insufferable, inside joke holiday party in history. Get tickets at the "in advance" price of $18 now!

Hack-A-Simmons? InBentional Fouls? Whatever we're calling it, it happened against the Wizards and there was a big argument about it. We discuss that, Embiid's defensive dominance, and Adam Silver the Snake. We also announce our first special guest for We Were Right Before Christmas, tickets available on our website! They are $18 until the day of the show, when they become $20. 

Thanksgiving has passed, so has Black Friday, so we kick off Super Saturday by rehashing the LeBron to the Sixers story, worrying a touch about Ben Simmons' elbow, discussing the two comfortable wins over Portland and Utah, open up the Lorenzo Brown mailbag, and who would win in a one-possession battle, TJ or TJ? The second Live Ricky is happening on December 22nd at Underground Arts with our friends in BGN Radio. We have some special guests planned and we're looking forward to partying deep into the holiday night with you. Tickets are $15 through Monday then they go up to $18, so don't wait!

This is just a short note to let you know about a very special announcement, the second live Rights To Ricky Sanchez. It's taking place on December 22nd, and all of the great information is in this podcast or on our website rightstorickysanchez.com. A new full podcast is coming on Saturday.

A lot to cover on this week's podcast! We've got a Robert Covington extension (victory for The Process), a Joel Embiid explosion (victory for The Process), a half-assed admittance of being wrong by Bill Simmons, and we discuss the tale of two halves that was Saturday night's Warriors game. We also introduce some new segments named for former Sixers.
