The odds of 76ers winning the championship increases with this but Simmons must remain a good three point shooter all throughout the whole season.
They have a chance as they are in the East, just like the Raptors which has a great journey to be in the Finals and successfully win in the NBA finals.
It's only the Sixers which the Raptors struggles but that lucky bounce of Leonard changes everything, no Leonard in the east now, and The Greek Freak is very predictable, so I think they have a chance.
Well, they need to prove that this coming NBA season, they are still a good team although Butler was already out in the team.
Their biggest rival in the East is the Bucks, they may look very predictable last season but I don't think they will still do the same mistake if they will reach in the NBA East finals. Most likely it's gonna be Bucks or Sixers which will occupy the number 1 and 2 spot.
Agreed. There are many casuals lurking here. Simmons alone becoming a three pointer is not an easy task to talk about. If only becoming three point shooter can be done in a single summer then we will have a nearly perfect player in Russell Westbrook.
Bucks will top the East. Philly is a strong second contender in the East. It is interesting if ever KD becomes 100% and can play in the playoffs. The Celtics are still there too and we will see if their young stars can play better without Irving.
