A new episode that brings Keith Pompey’s perspective on the NBA’s return, the playoff picture for the Philadelphia 76ers, and the George Floyd protests.

This week’s episode of The Sixer Sense Podcast brings a special guest. Keith Pompey, who’s been the beat writer at the Philadelphia Inquirer for over 15 years, adds his thoughts to the conversation about the continuation of the 2019-20 season.

Uriah Young, Lucas Johnson, and Keith offer opinions on the Philadelphia 76ers‘ potential lineups and their playoff chances depending on matchups. In addition, they discuss the beneficiary of the NBA hiatus and if the 76ers will approach this year’s playoffs any differently than the past two years.

For a little fun, they honor Allen Iverson on his 45th birthday by reminiscing about the memory of A.I.’s stepover of Tyronn Lue in the 2001 NBA Finals. Lastly, they dive into the future of Brett Brown and the moves that Elton should make in the offseason.

During the first 15 minutes, there is in an in depth conversation about the impact of George Floyd’s death on everyone. Keith, Lucas, and Uriah offer ideas and solutions on how the country can heal itself moving forward.
