I never felt like they were.

Also...

The spending isn't a small thing either, right?

You know, the Knicks are spending right now.

That's one of the reasons they have a really good team.

They've been aggressive.

Golden State, during the whole run, spent a ton of money to try to put together good teams.

The Celtics, famously...

spent so much money that the dinner check came this season.

They had to make all these trades or else they would have had to pay, you know, 300 million in luxury tax.

Philly's not done that.

They have not spent Philly.

And honestly, Philly and I don't think Denver really has either.

They've been two teams that had, you know, two of the best players of this decade, but always were pretty responsible with how they spent.

I don't know if that would have made a difference with Philly, but it did make a difference with little stuff like the McCain trade.

I never, if you go back to the Dr. J era and even go back, you can go back on YouTube, watch some of their home games.

Not like huge crowds.

I always thought when I was growing up, I always felt like they were

A flyers flyer city more than anything like that was like their team and, and Phillies, obviously the Eagles.

And I always felt like the Sixers were fourth, even though they had Dr. J for this great run, felt like it started to flip a little bit in the eighties, especially after they won the title.
