I remember LeBron as a rookie starting as a PG as well, the 2003-04 Cavs had Darius Miles at SF, and Ricky Davis at 2... LeBron playing at 1 was just temporary because it was clear he would be dominant as a scorer first then facilitator second

But I can see Simmons being at 1 for long term as his passing is superior to LeBron at same age in their careers, and he will be more dominant being a facilitator first then scorer second.

They aren't as bad as Orlando, most likely 7th,8th seed.

10 million cheaper than Chuckaway Jr.

We paid a premium price to acquire him at FA.
ATL also wanted him and they could've match our contract offer. So we needed to give more to acquire him.
Sixers extended the contract and they gave insurance for Covington.

THjr is probably 4th most overpaid player in our team.
Noah, Kanter and Baker is getting too much money for their value on the court.

In comparison, we played 10 games at home (7-3) and 5 on the road (1-4)


Well, the 76'ers are decent, are much further along in their rebuild (just about done) while the Knicks suck and are toying with being "competitive" while rebuilding yet again.

Same old
