    No.

    Depends more on potential roster changes though.

    Regardless,

    Celtics
    Heat
    Bucks

    are better.

    They have a chance at least. With LeBron gone the East is wide open.

    Now the West is locked up and East is the Wild Wild East

    I think Rivers coaching will do wonders for Ben & EMBIID.
    Perfect match, I can see Sixers improving.

    That would help. Harris played well for Doc at least.

    Still don't like his coaching.

    Some retard GM decided to pay Tobias Harris a max deal and give Al Horford 28M/year. 76ers are basically stuck filling out the other 11 slots with near minimum salary players while still being ridiculously into the luxury tax.

    So long as the 76ers have a "star" PG who is incapable of shooting outside of 15 ft and stubbornly looks to not give a shit about improving his range, sixers are never going to get beyond the 2nd round. Either Milwaukee, Miami, or Boston will be always sending these gimps packing.

    I think Embiid and Simmons will get better, but I'm not expecting much team success.

    I think the 76ers just created an epic choke cocktail

    Embiid and Doc are GOAT level choke ingredients


    Of course they're not gonna ****ing win... ever

    They are definitely not going to win it, Doc Rivers is a mediocre coach and not really an upgrade over Brett Brown. He needs prime big three to gift him a title in 2008, while still went to game 7 against those shitty hawks.

    "Can?" Yes. But I'm picking the celtics at this point. They have a whole offseason to work on things but they don't seem to be good at constructing the roster.

    Nope Nets are winning

    We have the 2 of the top 3 players in the entire conference say less.

    PG might be on the way as well

    Doc Rivers is trash bro. Why y'all people think he is good?

    -He had T-Mac and blew a 3-1 lead
    -He lost to Harden-less Rockets in a game 7 (AT HOME) after blowing a 3-1 lead
    -He never reached a conference final in 7 years with players like (Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, DeAndre Jordan, J.J. Reddick, Jamal Crawford, Lou Williams, Paul Pierce, Hedo Turkoglu)
    -He is overrated.
    -He went to 2 finals with Boston (KG, Pierce, Ray, Rondo) and won once.

    Player coach or nah, he is garbage.

    He didn't underachieve in Boston. They should have done better in LA this season but in Boston you are just writing down Garnett's name and completely ignoring the effect od his knee injury. It ended his prime and cost him a postseason.

    He needed 7 games to hold off the almighty 37 wins Hawks, makes you appreciate how good the big three were that they managed to somehow win a title with Doc Rivers as their coach. The funny thing is, hes the best black coach in the league, and yet Stephen A Smith thinks the league needs more black coaches.
