Why is the Philadelphia 76ers Tanking?

Placing at the 12th spot with 20 wins, 37 losses, and 8 8-game losing streak, the reason the Philadelphia 76ers is tanking is because: THEIR KEY PLAYERS ARE INJURED AND PLAYING UNDERWHELMINGLY.

We all know that Joel Embiid has a knee injury, but some of the Philadelphia 76ers' other key players are not doing so well, especially Paul George, who also has a hand injury. Aside from Embiid and George's injuries, fans also noticed that ever since the All-Star Weekend ended, the Philadelphia 76ers' defense lacked depth. It seems like their players are confused about their strategies, making them tank and lose important games in the process.

Sports Analysts suggest that for the Philadelphia 76ers to do well again and get their legendary reputation back, they must look at the future and leave their key players, past their prime behind so that their rebuilding era will take effect.
