Could the new look Celtics bounce the Harden/Embiid Sixers?

[Proctor]

Derrick White
Smart
Brown
Tatum
Williams

Al "Embiid's Daddy" Horford
Daniel Theis
Grant Williams
Pritchard

Not a bad team and that starting five is nasty. Harden and Embitch both typically get locked up by the Celtics. Celtics will certainly be a dark horse.

Thoughts?

Very bold of prawkward to step out of a Jazz game thread and expect not to be bullied

Mate, put enough pressure on and the Pistons could bounce these 2 losers

[Spurs m8]

Schroeder was doing well for the Celt's but trade with Houston lands them a solid big man...

The best defense in the league got even better

[NBAGOAT]

still not enough offense imo. also horford's too old so i'm not counting on him to stop embiid anymore. Bench is still pretty weak

They should pick up some buyouts. Maybe Dragic

They have like 5 open roster spots. There is more to come

agreed but dragic is going to dallas supposedly.

Absolutely if they can contain Embid. Their lack of a big man is their biggest weakness, but I think the 76rs would have problems containing Tatum and Jaylen. The east is wide open this year.

[Axe]

Embiid is just a big bitch who can forever dream of getting past the second round of the postseason.

[NBAGOAT]

for sure, looking like the best team in the east and middleton will miss some games

It's happening!

I don't know that we'll see it though, I don't even like the Sixers against the Bucks without Middleton

Sixers aren't getting past Miami.

[1987_Lakers]

I thought the Celtics were playing the Bucks next?

[Proctor]

Sixers aren't getting past Miami.
They aren't getting past Milwaukee with or without Middleton either. I got my next matchup wrong though hence the bump. C'est la vie.

[Mask the Embiid]

Embiid is playing without his right hand…
