Raptors do not have a better starting rotation, if both teams are healthy....

Just stop it rofl.

Bench, yes. No doubt about that, Sixers bench isn't very strong although Boban and Mike Scott are legit.


Kawhi + Siakham + regular season Lowry + Gasoft vs Embiid and Simmons

I give the Raptors a slight edge. Kawhi is the best player in the potential (AKA coming soon) series, followed by Embiid. Then Simmons or Lowry assuming neither of them chokes, and then Siakham.

btw I'm impressed by Boban lately.

e: lol I forgot Butler. Jimmy Buckets has game. I love his game. I'd personally take him over Lowry sometimes.

+1: I agree on taking Siakham over Harris. Harris can be good though. I think he's having a great season.

Lowry Green OG Siakam Gasol

Simmons Jj Reddit JimmythechokeButler Tobias Harris and A broken down Embiid


Lowry when hitting his shots is a wash with Simmons .

I’ll take Danny Green over Reddit any day

Kawhi > Butler

Siakam > Tobias Harris

Gasol > Broken Embiid that can barely carry his fat ass down the court after 15 minutes of playing


Maybe if Embiid magically gets back into shape in the next week ?


Stop it LOL

The only team in the NBA with a better starting 5 is Golden State.

lol @ you saying "if Lowry is hitting his shots" wtf? Well guess what? If Embiid is healthy and Simmons plays to his potential it's a wrap

I think simmons + harris + Reddick are overrated. They are all decent players but raps + bucks + hou have better starting 5s.

Your starting 5 has barely played together and has no chemistry rofl

Lowry = Simmons
Green > Reddick
Siakim > Harris
Kawhi > Butler
Gasol < Embiid

Ibaka, VanVleet, Powwell > Sixers Trash bench. The only position you have an advantage at is starting center. Also youre right if simmons plays he will potentially average over 10 turnovers per game vs Kawhi.. hes already at 8.


Tell me where im wrong

And if ya'll Rapturds don't stop saying Lowry = Simmons

SIMMONS IS BETTER THAN LOWRY JUST STOP :wacko:



Also, worth noting the Sixers are the first team in NBA history to have all 5 starters average 17+ PPG. And this is counting their scoring numbers once they were playing together too (not inflated numbers from before they were traded).


Like I said, on paper there's no reason this starting lineup can't wreck the East. It'll all come down to Embiid's health really. Toronto certainly has a much deeper team, but Philly has the better starting 5 with a lot more firepower there.

Let me know when Simmons can hit a shot from more than 9 feet away and isn’t a turnover machine

Until then a big FU
