At very least, they overachieved after inserting Young in the line-up.  They were a .600 team for a long stretch of the season, and won a lot of games down the stretch against top 10 teams.

that there was no over achievement based on facts

Wins Scores value as a projector is not a "fact", and it's agreement in where the Sixers finished is not proof of accuracy.

Derived stats such as this are interesting, compelling, and at times can be used as supportive evidence.  But the limit of stats being "facts" is saying that somebody did, indeed, pull down 8.5 rebounds per game.  Their use as a projector is not factually proven.
