No team in the NBA has had a more disappointing season than the Philadelphia 76ers. After acquiring Paul George, almost everyone expected the 76ers to be a legitimate title-contending team in the Eastern Conference.
George was out-hustled for the rebound, failing to jump or even raise his arms in pursuit of the ball. The lack of effort cost the Sixers a potential win and dropped their record to 20-26, the fourth-worst in the Eastern Conference.
