In the 76ers section he writes that they have 2 of the top 5 players in the East:
1. Kawhi
2. Giannis
3. Embiid
4. Kyrie
5. Simmons
I'm mystified how anyone could consider Simmons a top 5 player. Off the top of my head (I'm sure I'm forgetting others) I can't rate him better than Wall, Porzingis, Beal, Lowry, Oladipo, Griffin, Horford, Hayward... or even Brown and Tatum! Yeah, I'm a homer but I don't have him as top 5 on the Celtics never mind the entire conference!!!
