You forgot Memphis

I guess I can add them near the bottom

Sixers will be the 2nd best team in the East behind the Celtics but will be a 5 or 6 seed due to missed games trying to keep the group healthy.

Assuming Boston gets #1 that is not a good position to be in come playoff time...4 or 5 seed

I don’t even give a fuck about seeding. They have to beat the Celtics to win big. It’s about being healthy. Why are we even here if the goal isn’t winning big? You think like you were raised in a pussy’s city.

You want the best position possible come playoff time. Why? It doesn't matter how easy or hard your path is if you are holding up a fucking trophy.

Keep thinking you are hard. Even if you beat the C's. That can be long, devastating series and with the Sixers age that isn't ideal.

Lets see if Embiid can get out of the regular season before we even start this conversation. He could stub his toe and his foot could fall off.

It’s insane to think that somebody else is going to take out the Celtics. The Sixers have the only piece in the East that can fuck with Boston in a healthy Embiid. Nobody else can fuck with them. The Knicks? They’re the Bobo brand Celtics. There are two teams that are beating the 24-25 Celtics in a series - the Celtics or the Sixers.

Didn’t I say it’s about being healthy? Haha. You’re agreeing with me.

Made a change at 10 in the East.

Why

 

[bksballer89]

Sengun makes the AS team
Lonzo Ball play more games than his brother

 

[thunderc]

Why

Because I ended up picking the under with the Bulls and the over with the Raptors.

Ok it’s time, I’m not messing around with little things.

The Thunder are going to win the whole fn thing.

Wouldn't surprise me one bit, they are for sure one of the legit contenders

Good value bet too, I think Vegas has them too low (+650 same as the Knicks), only ones higher are Mavs at +180 and Celtics at -225

I follow the Vegas odds and they haven’t been lower than 2nd since the Hartenstein signing. I haven’t seen the Mavs anywhere close to that.

Well the mavericks is obviously a mistake. They are listed below Boston but with better odds. They have not been anywhere close to that anywhere.
