There's no way the Sixers are trading Iggy, unless Cleveland or Phoenix go crazy and try to swap stars. I don't think the Sixers want any player on the Spurs now.
The players job is to win, and they are fighting for their jobs and careers. It's not in the interest of the players to lay down. Whoever they get in the draft is going to replace one of them. The replaced player may be traded or cut.
As a fan, I know the Sixers will improve more quickly with a better pick, so I want them to get a good chance at a top lottery pick.
But unless Cheeks is told to sit certain players, they're going to win as many as they can. Chances are no matter what they do, they're still getting a lottery pick, and their recent win streak has more to do with the schedule then anything else.
4 in a row and Seattle next.
