Less than 60 minutes before the 76ers' plane was scheduled to take off, forward Thaddeus Young was still on the court at the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, working on his jump shot.

The team struggled mightily out of the gate, only getting back on track once head coach Maurice Cheeks was fired and...
