The Rights To Ricky Sanchez is a podcast that is hosted by Spike Eskin and Michael Levin and mostly, sort of about Sixers basketball.
Thank goodness that's over. The Sixers split against the Raptors, but looked pretty ugly doing it. We discuss the Raptors defense that wreaked havoc on Joel Embiid, Tobias Harris the finisher, and th…
After several other Joel Embiid games, we had The Joel Embiid game, a 50 point masterpiece against the Bulls. We discuss Joel's growth and journey, as Mike slowly devolves into the most typical of Ph…
The Sixers ended their three game losing streak as only they can do it, in an ugly win over the Rockets. We discuss performances from Seth Curry, Tyrese Maxey, and Isaiah Joe, while Joel Embiid's wor…
The Sixers have lost two straight on the road, and glaring was the production from bench units and their three point deficit. We talk about the reasons for both and whether it's a coaching change, a …
The Sixers are proving they can win games when they're not at their best, with a suffocating fourth quarter defense. We discuss accepting that this is just how good Embiid is, what will make a succes…
It wasn't the test we were looking forward to, but the Sixers starting lineup moved to 13-0 with a convincing win over the Nets. We discuss Embiid's continued dominance, Simmons' (maybe) best game s…
The Sixers got caught in a trap game against Portland, and even though they lost, survived a scary fall from Joel Embiid. Even in the forgettable game, Embiid's 25 point 2nd quarter was something to …
The Dan Burke Revenge Game! January is our month, and the Sixers close it out with a stunning victory led by a 2-3 zone (RIP John Chaney), Furkan Korkmaz and Matisse Thybulle. We discuss whether Joel…
In a war of MVP leaders and MVP wannabes, the Sixers showed they belonged with the Lakers, and ultimately won on a game winner from Tobias Harris, who we've always believed in. We discuss the big sho…
Ben Simmons has woken up. In the 4th quarter against the Celtics, Simmons came alive and kept it going into the Pistons game. We discuss the new and improved Ben Simmons, Joel Embiid's continued, imp…
Joel Embiid's MVP case grows by the game, as he quietly dominates again on both ends of the court. We discuss the differences in Embiid's game this year compared to previous seasons, the argument for…
The Sixers are positioned due to contact tracing, but we're talking about Shake Milton's bully-like performance against the Grizzlies, what is up with Ben Simmons on the offensive end, and Mike's nev…
The James Harden trade saga is over, and he did not get traded to the Sixers for Ben Simmons. We discuss the trade that didn’t happen (37:22), how we feel that it didn’t happen, the future of the tea…
While the situation that led up to it was regrettable, Tyrese Maxey's 39 point performance against the Nuggets will live on forever. We talk about Maxey's game, point Danny Green, Isaiah Joe letting …
The Sixers lost to the Nets, but we aren’t stressing, talking about good games from Shake Milton and Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid’s performance against the Wizards and whether he’s playing too many minu…
The Sixers sit alone at the top of the Eastern Conference, with the offense building and the defense humming. We discuss the emergence of Tobias Harris and Mike's necessary apologies, the continued d…
Positive pod! Joel Embiid is playing as well as he ever has, and Tobias Harris had a game worthy of getting his $10 million back from Shake Milton, and somehow got a win over the Raptors at home. We …
A Joel Embiidless, sloppy loss to the Cavs notwithstanding, the Sixers have looked in a lot of ways like the team of the last couple of years. We talk about the bright spots in Shake Milton, and Tyre…
Would it be the start of a new Sixers season without a win that made us feel bad for a good portion of it? We discuss the continued great play from Shake Milton and Tyrese Maxey, the huge second half…
