Its going to be a huge adjustment going form playing Cleveland to Phili on opening day.

A Sixer team with Jimmy Butler and Redick is scary.

But this season's Sixers is not that good.

They look good on paper, but they're just not as balanced as last season.

I think Poirier is the odd man out among the 4 bigs.

Theis is very good on defense and rebounding.

Kanter gives the Celts a low post threat.

And Rob Williams gives the Celts shot-blocking.
theis is having a great game, but playing the cavs is part of it. there will be certain match ups that he wont be able to handle so well. on those nights CBS will have to figure out who to play.

TL is getting better, but you can tell he needs to think about things before doing them.


Honestly among all the bigs Kanter has probably looked the worst.

Just so happens he's got the biggest contract so he's a lock to stick around.

I'm not including Tacko in this.  He's a feel good story and a gimmick.
and i have absolutely no problem with this.

yeah, this game so far and kanter is not looking very good on offense, which is why he is in the nba.

on the other hand, he actually had a couple of credible defensive plays. so, we shall see.

They are gonna be a monster defensively. I'm not sure their offense will be good but it will be better than Cleveland's. Overall I will be shocked if they arent a top 3 east team.

Poirier is a rim runner.

i agree. on defense they will be a very tough team. but if embiid gets injured, they wont go far in the playoffs.

The Cavs might be the worst team in the NBA on this showing

I don't know. That Magic team looked pretty awful the other night too. But it's preseason.

Cavs have a bunch of players out of this game.
