CHARLESTON, S.C. — At one point during Thursday’s televised practice at The Citadel, 76ers coach Doc Rivers told his team, “Our spirit is [B.S.]!”
Part of the problem had to do with the Sixers standing around and not feeding Joel Embiid the ball. Later, Rivers, still wearing a live microphone after the NBA TV telecast, chatted with James Harden.
“What I’m trying to get Joel first is to establish himself to be a better post player,” Rivers said. “We were horrible. Would you agree, a horrible post-passing team last year?”
