Imagine a healthy Nets team vs Philly in round 1? That would be amazing

Re: The Sixers Look Scary
Let’s give it a few games before we start throwing out words like “scary”. They beat the Wolves that were coming off a close win last night…

Re: The Sixers Look Scary
Assuming health I think the East is down to the 76ers v Nets.
I don't think the Bucks are in the running any longer.
While it's very boring to watch I love the pairing of Harden and Embiid. And I hope Embiid wins it because nothing else will produce sound clips quite like him lol.
They have a very good chance at a ring in the next few years and I like that they have Maxey and Harris with Thybull in that starting lineup. Plenty of size but those two being so good on offense makes up for Thybull being Thybull on offense. Real good chance that starting lineup can win a ring in the next few years. Especially with LeBron potentially not standing in their way and another year being added to the GS core and CP3.

Exactly. They were playing the Timberwolves that were on a back to back.

I know timberwolves on back to back nights.
But just for this game. It just looks like sixers are toying around. Add Maxey running wild with open layups. I don’t know where teams can find a focal point to defend the sixers.
It reminded me of the Mavs when they still had KP.

That's why Sixers padded their argument knocking off an overrated Bucks Big 3 with a shorthanded squad.

Gonna be honest, if Celtics can keep the chemistry going they should be in conversation.

Lol. One game. Harden and Embiid are formidable, but 20 3-pointers and 40 FTs isn’t going to happen every night .

Re: The Sixers Look Scary
I'd be pretty surprised of they didn't come out of the East. Only Doc can stop this team.

Re: The Sixers Look Scary
Sixers fleeced the Nets.
People are deluding themselves by saying the Nets won the trade.
Nets have nobody right now. Kyrie is not close to playing full time. Simmons looks weeks away.
KD can't do it all.
And Simmons is also a **** headcase. Why would I ever trust him in a playoff series?
Nets should have kept Harden. He would have kept playing.
And Sixers would likely just trade him to the Nets rather than give up multiple picks to dump Tobias Harris.
I still think the Bucks win the East. And Harden won't keep this up. But hes still good enough to be a second or third option with KD or Embiid.

Re: The Sixers Look Scary
It only just dawned on me just how ugly it will be watching Harden and Embiid flopping around for foul calls the rest of this season... ugh

Re: The Sixers Look Scary
In my opinion , I think Shannon’s Sharpes narrative is true , if their ceiling was contender with Simmons , harden raises their ceiling .
In my opinion they haven’t been true contenders since jimmy left . Conference contenders sure but quasi contenders kind of The lIke bucks who I felt were never true title contenders until they sorta waltzed into a last man standing finals .
Nets got a great return but Drummond and seth curry aren’t enough to disparage the upgrade from Simmons to harden .
Can harden disappear in the playoffs ? It’s possible ,that’s skips subjective narrative . Objectively harden is ranked higher than Ben so to say that the 76ers are worse now is really conjecture .
( granted the bench pieces aren’t part of the equation )

Re: The Sixers Look Scary
The most damn boring team to watch, that's why no one wants to watch 6ers game except for 6ers fans, wish the league can tighten up the damn foul baiting and stop these loser duo to ruin basketball
