Sixers owners Adam Aaron and Joshua Harris, have owned the team for about a year. Late last week their team was able to acquire Andrew Bynum and Jason Richardson, who were part of a four team trade. Philadelphia and their fans showed joy during the players introduction press conference at the National Constitution Center. The Sixers owners, made a rare move they opened up the press conference to the public for free. The crowd went bananas once they saw Bynum and Richardson. What an experience today for myself and everyone there. Philadelphia basketball on the professional level haven't had that roar since the 2000-01 campaign where Allen Iverson won NBA MVP and led the team to the NBA Finals. Fans were screaming "Bynum Bynum" and "JRich JRich", along with "Let's go Sixers". The Philadelphia 76ers probably have their 1st legit NBA superstar since Allen Iverson. Only time will tell how long the love fest will last between Bynum and the fans.
