The Rights To Ricky Sanchez is a podcast that is hosted by Spike Eskin and Michael Levin and mostly, sort of about Sixers basketball.
The Sixers took a swing, trading Robert Covington and Dario Saric (along with the ghost of Jerryd Bayless) for Jimmy Butler. We discuss the pros and cons of the trade, how we feel it positions them f…
Dario Saric returns with a big game, just when everyone was ready to give up on him. The Sixers have a first round pick making a difference, and it’s not the guy we thought it would be. We discuss th…
On the very first Grade That Trade episode of the pod, you sent in creative Sixers trades, and we evaluate them based on entertainment, realism, and overall value. Sixers trades for Bradley Beal, Dam…
Ben Simmons had another bad game in the Sixers loss to the Raptors, we discuss his play and need for a jump shot, how long the Sixers will be able to keep going with Fultz in the starting lineup, the…
The Sixers don’t look cohesive offensively or defensively, we discuss the reasons for that, the balance they have to strike between the future and the present, once again potential trades for Jimmy B…
Markelle Fultz had an encouraging first half against the Pistons, but sat out the entire fourth quarter and overtime. Was that the right decision? We also discuss Dario Saric’s slow start, Joel Embii…
In one of the best pods in some time, we discuss why Markelle Fultz must continue to start and play a lot for the future of the Sixers, the cheering for him during the home games, the polarizing rela…
Cus Crise was in full effect, and unfortunately so was Baynes hitting threes, Tatum banking shots, and Brown screaming and staring after getting blocked and banking shots in against Embiid. We talk a…
Part II of our season preview includes our final season predictions for the Sixers, over/unders about Joel Embiid, Ben Simmons, Dario Saric, TJ McConnell, JJ Redick, Landy Shamet, Elton Brand and mor…
The Sixers played four preseason games, two of them in China. Based on what we saw, and what we expected, we rate every Sixers player, Brett Brown and Elton Brand on a confidence scale of 0-76. We ve…
JJ Redick and Landry Shamet shot the lights out in China. We discuss whether they can keep Redick out of the starting lineup, whether Shamet has forced his way into the rotation, if Luka Doncic is to…
Markelle Fultz shot four three pointers and made one of them in an NBA preseason game. This is a big deal. We discuss how optimistic we are at this point for Fultz and his future, and whether his tim…
The Sixers are once again playing basketball. After a summer of questions about jump shots, both Markelle Fultz and Ben Simmons played a game without taking any three pointers, though Fultz did take …
We skipped our Markelle Fultz is shooting now takes during the live show because Elton Brand showed up. We discuss the now famous Player’s Tribune video, revisit the idea of adding Jimmy Butler to th…
Elton Brand surprised us while Spike was talking trash about him, Dario Saric gave one of the best interviews we have ever done, we had three great Process Hall of Fame speeches, a "Bill Simmons" int…
Elton Brand is the Sixers general manager now. This has been quite an amazing six years or so hasn’t it? We discuss the hire of guy who is on the shirt, former process Sixer, former Sevens GM, Old Sc…
We’re less than a week from training camp! We talk about Markelle Fultz reality, the five Sixers in the Sports Illustrated Top 100, whether we’d want to trade for Jimmy Butler, JJ Redick on Zach Lowe…
