Casual Friday Sixers Links: Ready for the NBA Season!

Welcome back to Casual Friday Sixers Links.

Housekeeping:

• Good Guys 1, Evil Over-Reactionary Draft Lottery Reform 0

• Not missing you, off-season

• Many people have asked many blog leaders over the years if they could change their SB Nation username because there was no manual way to do it yourself. Now you can manually change your username one time without having to ask any higher-up to do it for you. Click on this Blog Huddle link for specific instructions on how to change your username.

• Want to share some Sixers thoughts with the LB community? Write a FanPost. Do a good job on it and we may even promote it to the front page. I'll even link to it in the weekly links post too. You'll be famous!
