Pistons' Paul Reed has words for former Sixers team amid struggles
It's no secret that the 2024-25 season has not gone as planned for the Philadelphia 76ers. Expected to be a championship contender after a busy offseason highlighted by the big addition of Paul George, the Sixers have instead been hit with every injury problem under the sun and are struggling at 22-44.
Meanwhile, the Detroit Pistons have completely turned things around as they sit at 37-31 and are the No. 6 seed in the East a season after they won only 14 games in all of the 2023-24 season. Detroit is led by All-Star Cade Cunningham, but they have two former Sixers on the roster in Tobias Harris and Paul Reed.
Reed responded to a tweet from The Philadelphia Inquirer's Keith Pompey who posted the "reverse standings" which showed where the Sixers are in the lottery. Reed had an interesting response in terms of where his former team is.
They thought I was the problem 🤦🏿♂️ https://t.co/5c1eQ4oyHy
— Paul Reed (@Bball_paul) March 16, 2025
While Reed may hold some hard feelings for his former Sixers team, it is again important to note that the reason why Philadelphia is struggling is because it has gone through a perfect storm of injuries. Everything that could go wrong for the Sixers has and it has led to this disastrous season.
