Impossible to pick without knowing precisely Embiid's health. Obviously I will root for my Hawks in 6 or 7.

Without Embiid this is a close series.

Home court is so important here.

Trae will be a handful.

I can see Dwight and Capella getting into it and both getting ejected before the series is over

Hawks in 6, heard it here first

Hawks in 6, heard it here first

Jumping on the Hawks bandwagon now

No shame

[GOBB]

Sixers with or without Embiid. Not a tough choice at all. Hawks fans praying Embiid doesn’t play

Why would the Sixers win without Embiid?

It won’t happen. At all.

With Embiid? Sixers in 5, 6 tops.

Because sixers without embiid are still better than the Hawks. Period

I agree. Will be like Boston and Chicago 2009 with no KG.

Embiid plays, sixers in 5, if he doesn’t thenn6 sixers are winning regardless

Idiots laughing. Yet banking on the Hawks whose primary scorer lacks playoff experience. Who will face 2 all nba defensive players. The sixers are seasoned from coaching to players for this round. The Hawks are not. They go as far as Trae takes them. Contain Trae. Ball game.

What sixers did to wizards last game would be similar to what happens vs Hawks minus Embiid. They would need that ref love badly. Keep laughing tho. Same idiots who probably thought Wizards wasn’t an easy out.

Bucks and Nets the only threats. Only teams I’m typing shit about if a, b, c goes out way then...

Not no damn Hawks. But hey you guys love underdogs. Probably what you guys have been all your lives. Wanting to be with the cool kids. Wanting to be in VIP. One day

What about Bogi? What about Capela? Who boards on his level with Embiid wearing street clothes?

What if Deandre Hunter starts taking your 3rd defender off the dribble and scores...while locking down Tobias. And not having to worry about anyone else on the team taking over.

What about when the benches come out and Huerter makes plays and Gallo gets hot.

This is all with the understanding that the game plan will be to stop Trae. Which is hard.

Who is going to make shots for you?
