The Official NBA Thread: LeBron James signs with the Philadelphia 76ers

Y’all gotta sell me on the Celtics being in that conversation. Tatum rushed back from injury. PG whatever number he is was his best self after serving time for drugs. Everyone else is a specialist outside of Pritchard.
50 wins. East will be bunched up.

Great defense, great rebounding, high 3pt volume going to lead to lots of regular season wins. Playoffs much different.
 
Celtics will probably have a similar 82 to last year.

Dominate the bottom 15-20 teams, split vs #SameTier, lose to the handful above them.
 
I don’t believe in an aging PG. he has to do a lot more on Boston than he did in Philly.

I have the Celtics winning 40 something games.

My one old man's take is that when you are a pillar of the game, you should try to avoid playing for more than 3 teams. On average, you can play for two; three is pushing it (but guys play longer now), but guys like Bron (The Cleveland stints are separate to me) & KD playing for five teams feels wrong.

That being said, people should be allowed to do whatever they want.

He definitely doesn’t have to do a lot more. Average like 16ish a game as a 3 and D guy getting wide open looks.

My guess is he isn’t on the team past the trade deadline though.
 

People keep saying stuff like this, but I don’t really buy it…at least during the regular season. Maxey and Brown will get the most shots. Think Embiid and Bron will be pacing themselves more. Also will vary game to game depending on match-ups.

Ironically PG a better fit next to Embiid, Bron, VJ and Maxey but Bron would not have paid the Sixers any mind if Jaylen wasn't on the team. :lol
 
Low expectations for 36 year old PG but high expectations for 42 year old Bron?

Ya’ll forget PG would’ve played 60+ games had it not been for the PED stuff.

Embiid only gone play 35-40

Bron and Maxey will be food on defense. JB gone be disgruntled at some point probably.

Philly’s chemistry is going to be helter skelter. Especially with these lofty expectations. This team is basically the championship favorite and if they don’t deliver, the scrutiny will be crazy

Boston easily will win 50. Tatum gone have a lot to prove this year. 28-10-6 up coming
 
we putting Sixers on the "no excuses list" right now?
this kinda reminds me of kd joing the rox and everyone was ready to crown em.
