East is pretty bad but I dont think Raps are top 6. I guess its possible to be 6-8...if all breaks right.

Perk is just fun and Bill is a great listen but he’s completely overrated as analyst

Bill has this deep seeded hatred for us for some reason. Not sure if our fans have attacked him on social media or something or just dislikes anything that isn't American.

Not sure how Perk's take is such a reach lol the East is wide open. Simmons is just a hater.

Perk ain't wrong... Top 6 isn't unrealistic assuming we can stay relatively healthy.

Bill Simmons still thinks the Celtics without Holiday, Porzingis and Tatum are still a top 5 team in the East.

I honestly can't stand Perk's takes...but he isn't crazy here.

Perkins: "Toronto"
Simmons: "Thems fighting words".

Perk has definitely had our back over the years when we weren't intentionally tanking. I remember numerous occasions.

All you need to know about Simmons right now is that he STILL thinks the Celtics are nabbing the 5 seed next year.

I respect his knowledge of NBA history. I do not respect his NBA projections.

Other than the top-3 of Cleveland, NYK, and Orlando, it's wide open.

Philly should be good on paper but will probably underperform due to injuries, as always.

The Bucks literally have the worst roster in the NBA outside of Giannis.

Miami and Atlanta have comparable rosters to us. Indy might be in the mix as well.

He isn’t even saying that they will be top 6’ he is saying it is possible. Out of two opinions. Impossible and possible, I think possible is way more accurate and I don’t even think we make the top 6. Sad to agree with Perk though because his hit rate is pretty low. He also took this way too seriously. lol so much so that I wonder if this is just a way to self promote through fake feud.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

I don't know why Big Perk always has good things to say about us but I like it. He keeps saying on TV that Giannis to Toronto is the best fit

His entire media career is built on jumping the Raps bandwagon in 2019.
