Co-owner David Adelman spoke his opinion on this growing situation and stated that he believes that the Wells Fargo Center has a preference towards the Flyers and the NHL over the 76ers. He went on to say that he thinks that the Flyers get overall better selection and choosing dates for games and special events over them and he has had enough.
The 76ers have the reiging MVP of the NBA on their team in Joel Embiid, but Adelman went on to say that he feels that there is no other contributing factors to level out the field between the two franchises.
The chairman of the Flyers, Dan Hilferty, responded to these accusations of unfairness in favor of the Flyers and said that he was disturbed and upset by the comments that Adelman made and went on to say how the 76ers are not at any point of scheduling disadvantage.
As the unimpressed feelings of the 76ers get voiced to the Flyers and Wells Fargo Center, we will see if this debate between the two grows into something more, or if there is a common ground that all parties can come to.
