76ers point guard Tyrese Maxey says that the goal for this year is to win an NBA championship. If not, the year would be bust for Philadelphia.
While there are few young guys on the team, including Maxey himself, he says that the veterans like Joel Embiid and James Harden want to win now.
Via Sam DiGiovanni of ClutchPoints:
“Title or bust,” the Sixers guard said bluntly. “I think it is title or bust for us, honestly. With the talent that we have on this team — the talent that we have, the camaraderie that we have, the timetable that we have — we want to win now. We want to win now. I know myself, I’m young, [De’Anthony Melton]’s young, [Jalen McDaniels], we have some young pieces. But we also have some vets who are ready to do this thing right now.”
Philadelphia will face Brooklyn in the first round series after finishing third in the Eastern Conference.
