Notably, Morey also made an appearance on the 97.5 The Fanatic show, claiming that his side, the 76ers will challenge the Celtics in the upcoming NBA season.
You've got to give the Celtics their credit; they won the title, they're an excellent team, they brought everybody back, they're the target, but we don't feel like we give up anything to them, and we're gonna be coming to take the title away from them.On the 97.5 The Fanatic Show, Daryl Morey said
