Rights To Ricky Sanchez: The Sixers Podcast

Only 20 games left in what is widely considered the best Sixers season in over a decade. They only have to go 12-8 to match Mike's prediction of 25 wins. This episode includes T-Rob's per minute explosion, Nerlens Rookie Of The Year hopes, a little Ish and Isaiah talk, and Embiid's now internet famous between the legs dunk. Also perhaps a little Andrew Sharp ether and some lottery party details.

The Sixers won a game! Ish Smith took over! Jason Richardson is an NBA player. Nerlens Noel is shooting all the free throws. What?! All of that, and going in on #RTRS arch rival, Andrew Sharp. Another early plug, the 2015 #RTRS/Liberty Ballers Lottery Party is May 19th at Buffalo Wild Wings in the Great Northeast. It's going to be legendary.

A trade deadline so big it deserved a second mini-podcast. We're here, where's Eskin?

IT'S BEEN REAL GUYS. CYA-KJ-MCW. We thought it would be a quiet trade deadline. WE WERE WRONG. We announce the 2015 RTRS/LB Lottery Party. Nowhere in our wildest dreams could we have imagined that the Sixers would do something as extreme as trading the rights to Cenk Akyol, even for Always-Gonna-Be-A-Sixers Javale McGee. Another day, another first round pick. AND CHU CHU!

Spike went to the All-Star game! Not really. Spike did go to All-Star practice (thanks to his lovely wife), so we talk about that, the Sprite Slam Dunk, the Hawks All-Star failures, Patrick Beverly, Kenny Smith, Zach LaVine vs. Dario, Bob and Nerlens in the Rising Stars game, the failed NBA After-Dark takeover, Evan Turner's game winner, make fun of Charles Barkley, and much, much more!

Another podcast, another day for hot takes on the Hawks! Oh, but it's a Sixers podcast, so the topic list is long. Included are Tim Frazier's debut, a Rights To Ricky Sanchez Birthday Present, some early info on the 2015 Lottery Party, looking ahead to the trade deadline, the NBA After Dark live podcast takeover, the Sixers legwarmers, the return of Hollis Thompson, Nerlens' free throws, the new m...

We have a lot to catch up on! Spike and Mike talk Wroten's ACL, #PointJaKarr, Larry Drew II, some Super Bowl / NBA Prop Bets, and Mike's new USB mic!

We're back! The original Sixers podcast talks MCW trade rumors, the Oscars, who would you trade for Stauskas, and of course, some firey hot takes. 

Just kidding! No New Year's Resolutions here. But we do discuss the possible Jason Richardson return, Mo Speezy's vendetta against Doug Collins, MCW's struggles and Team Chill Part II. 

Spike, Mike and a very special guest discuss the win over the Heat, gifts for the Sixers, and KJ's mom.

We bid a fond farewell to Brandon Davies, start a war with the NBA After Dark podcast, and bathe in the glory of Big Shot Bob Covington.

Mike got Skype so the podcast sounds great! We talk about Big Shot Bob Covington and take a million questions about the Sixers from Twitter.

They won. We celebrate.

It's a Black Friday edition of the Ricky! We take Twitter questions, talk MCW vs. Wroten, give progress reports on every player, and give some great Black Friday deals. Today's sponsor is Michael Baumann's awesome book Philadelphia Phenoms: The Most Amazing Athletes To Play In The City Of Philadelphia, a WONDERFUL gift for the sports fan in your life.

Quite a return for Michael Carter-Williams! We discuss the Sixers big third quarter win over the Mavericks, the return of MCW , the (probable) arrival of Robert Covington, the Tony Wroten All-Star campaign, who Malcolm Thomas was, as well as some firey hot takes on Derrick Rose and the Spurs.

Find out why this season is the Year Of The Ricky! We talk Wroten, Davies (!), KJ, Nerlens, MCW, LRMAM and Chris Johnson. We talk a little bit about the Cavs struggles, and get to a Jigsaw.

Finally, Spike and Mike get the season of RTRS off to a blazing start, reveling in the departure of Arnett Moultrie, basking in the glow of Tony Wroten, and discussing Spike's wedding and honeymoon. Also, a wedding themed Jigsaw! We're back, thanks for waiting. 

Spike and Mike talk about a HUGE moment for The Ricky, the FIBA tournament, Joel Embiid's tweets, Tinder, the NFL and Fan Since 09. 

It seems like Thaddeus  Young's final year + in Philadelphia has produced more trade rumors about one Sixers player than I ever remember. Finally, Thad gets to leave the Sixers rebuild, and will go to... Minnesota's rebuild. He must be thrilled. On today's RTRS, Spike and Mike talk about the Thad trade, Mike's step-down at Liberty Ballers, and my tribute to Andrew Bynum this week.

We talk about the signing of Pierre Jackson, Joel Embiid's Twitter, the idea of Dion Waiters on the Sixers, Mike's experience at the Vegas Summer League, Lebron's Decision 2.0, Evan Turner's contract (LOL!) and Jordan McRae. There will also be a brand new JIGSAW.

The Sixers are RUNNING the Orlando Summer League. Who needs Lebron? We discuss Nerlens, Casper, and the the rest of the roster, preview the Las Vegas roster, and weigh in on THE DECISION II.

Spike and Mike discuss the most Sam Hinkie draft of all time, Embiid, Saric, and the real Blark. 

Spike and Mike discuss their thoughts going into Thursday night's NBA Draft. Part 2 will be released on Friday morning. Happy Hinkie Day. 

Spike and Mike talk about how Joel Embiid's injury affects the draft and the Sixers, Wiggins-PCOM-Sixers-Press-Gate, the idea of trading MCW and drafting Exum or Smart, the Finals, hot takes, and new JIGSAW.

A international prospect looks like he'll get into the top three of the 2014 NBA Draft, and the Sixers might have a real shot at what could be a transcendent player, if he drops to three. We break down the chances that the Sixers might luck into the hottest international prospect since Yao Ming, talk Big Boards, potential trade partners, the laughable Phil Jackson, and the NBA Finals.
