By Josh Liddick, Sports Talk Philly editor Yay or Nay: Should the Sixers bring back the black jerseys as alternates?

While Joel Embiid is known as the Sixers' leader in social media, Ben Simmons can always crack a few good moments on Twitter from time-to-time.

Simmons got a poll going on Twitter on Tuesday night to ask the fans a really important question: Should the Sixers bring back the black jerseys to wear as an alternate?

As of this moment at 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday, the poll has garnered over 35,000 votes with 'Yes' getting 80-percent of the vote.

The Sixers haven't worn the black jerseys since the 2008-09 season, and they are best known for the success that Allen Iverson brought to the team during his tenure.

The Sixers have since moved back to the red, white, and blue color scheme which has received an extremely positive response from Sixers fans and the media.

But wouldn't it be neat if the Sixers brought back the unis for a few games here-and-there as an alternate?

The Sixers are supposed to have four jerseys in their collection, as the Icon, Association, and Statement jerseys have already been revealed.

With as much hype that has surrounded this team over the last year, it would be interesting to see this group of talented players pay homage to Iverson and the days of old.

But what do you think? Do you agree with Simmons or not?
