Lowe’s 10 things: Celtics streak, LeBron’s rare genius and Mudiay

Paul George was critical of the Philadelphia 76ers after their 142-110 loss to the Chicago Bulls on Monday. The Sixers now have the sixth worst record in the NBA and Joel Embiid could miss the rest of the season.

“We’ve shown no sign of a team that will compete,” said George. “We just don’t have the habits of a champion, or a playoff contending team, would have. To be honest, right now it’s a little far-fetched. All we can do is work hard and try to just keep going.”

George is averaging 16.2 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.2 assists in 32.2 minutes over his first 38 games with the Sixers. George’s PER has dropped from 19.3 to 14.7 since 23-24.
