When we worked hard to bring the NBA championship to Philadelphia, our fans provided an unparalleled home court advantage.

We encourage everyone to get vaccinated and will continue to use our platform to educate and help our community.

They are great. Let’s move on. It’s great at home. Happy. We stumbled from the beginning of the second quarter to the beginning of the third quarter and they have never wavered. This brings vitality to the team. I don’t think people know how important this is.”
