Harden says he's healthy and ready to go. Joel is the favorite for the MVP. The team is deep and athletic. Is this the year?

The Nets may be the worst team in the Eastern Conference playoffs as they're boosted by their pre-trade deadline record when they still had Durant and Irving. And we swept them in the regular season.

Taking more than 5 games to dispatch them would be unacceptable and a sign we're a fraud once again.

6 day layoff plus more for our stars means we could be rusty. But that's no excuse. Need to hammer an inferior opponent at home to set the tone.

Time's yours...

Who will break Embiid’s orbital bone this time?

If he were playing, I’d put all my money on Ben.

He should be practicing his jump shots on NBA2K instead of wasting his time playing COD. The guy will never improve on his shooting. :x

I expect pain

Even though I predicted a 1st round loss, I'll be optimistic and say Sixers in 7.

I have no confidence in anything besides Embiid and Maxey to a lesser extent.

I really hope it's over in 5. I want to watch the NFL Draft in peace.

Sloppy start but Playoff PJ is definitely here.
They say an analytics man doesn't have a heart, but I ran the numbers and nothing can be further from the truth - Sam Hinkie probably
