I'm very pleasantly surprised that we were able to get him on to come aboard on our term.

with the exodus to the west... honestly... if healthy.. we could be looking at a top 3 seed... by that I mean 3 seed...

Just gotta cross our fingers for health. Otherwise, nothing but excitement here. Suffering through those 4 years was worth it to get here.

So, does that mean, we will have HCA through the playoffs next season? I friggin think so!

I'm trying to think up a downside to this deal and I just can't think of anything realistic at all.

Every forum has one. Congrats guys.

Most importantly we now have a veteran that can inform our younger players when to take naps.

Just one year? We maintain our cap space to chase bigger FAs next year? A+ signing from BC.

if this team has a healthy year, they are gonna make some noise and be very fun to watch.

Embiid/Redick podcasts is what I need in my life.

This team is gonna be nasty. Embiid had us playing w/ the advanced stats of a 50 win team. We just added 2 consensus #1 picks and JJ Redick. In this East, I'm trying to get homecourt in the 1st round.

I'm seeing no lower than 6th, but as high as 3rd seed.

Cleveland
Boston
Washington
Milwaukee
Toronto

Boston's experience and health advantages are probably the only things they have on the 76ers at this point.

Seriously have no clue why he logs on. Does NOTHING but come here to bitch & complain

If the mods had some guts they would just ban him and move on. There are plenty of good posters on this board, and I think the threshold for banishment is way too high.

It's a really solid signing by BC.

We can safely say the Sixers (assuming health) just jumped New York, Detroit, Chicago, Indiana, Orlando, Atlanta, Charlotte, and Miami. They were already ahead of Brooklyn.

If Hayward signs in Miami they move ahead. Toronto to me is like a toss up, could go either way.

So that leaves Washington, Boston, Milwaukee, and Cleveland. That puts the Sixers as a 5-7 seed. Not bad.

My issue is if they don't extend Covington now, how big of a hit is that to the team? #TTP #waituntilnovember

Charlotte may not be doing things people love, but they might be decent. Think saying we're better then them immediately is a bit premature imo.
