If they are the full time starters for another team?

I am going to assume we see a good amount of the following lineup-

Rozier,
Smart,
Green,
Brown,
Olynyk,

Say that is the team we run with. Is it better then half the league? Do we win 40 games? 35? I honestly think that it is a comparable starting 5 to the hornets with more potential for growth.

I suppose many will want to consider a bench so lets go with

Jackson,
Hunter,
Young,
Mickey,
Jerebko,
Zeller.

Our weaknesses would clearly be ball handling, rim defense, and rebounding.

I think we would win around 38 games.

I think that team would be in contention for a top 5 draft pick in the next draft.  quite probably top 3.  Green and JJ are the only ones not on their rookie deals.  no go-to scorer.   no rebounding.  no proven PG.  no shot-blocking.  only thing they'd have going for them is some good perimeter defense.

That starting unit would be bad, but that bench unit would get eaten alive. Our record would be Hinkie-worthy.

I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

i think with this lineup, that team sees about 15-20 wins.

Smart would be the leader for that team, defensively he can win games and we have seen this before and he is full of energy which will help his teammates.

Olynyk could or would be leading scorer but will be terrible defensively, total defense liability. Rozier/Smart/Brown will be nice to see defensively though

I understand the argument for them being bad. And, I suppose, my counter argument is based on a pre-season game. But, does this lineup taking the Charlotte starters to the cleaners not give them any respect?

I'm leaning more this way than I am toward the worst team of all time.  Assuming Brad is the coach and they are trying to win and not tank, they won't be historically pathetic.  They will compete at least.

With a 100 % healthy KO back in form and Green .....I believe they will be one of the better benches in the league .  Coached right by CBS.

No one that can score, no rebounding, no interior defense, etc.  They would be awful.

The backcourt would be deeply dysfunctional - a bottom 3 offense would likely result.

Defensively, pretty sketchy. Smart really good, Jerebko solid, good overall quickness, but some really bad/green defenders in there and massive problems rebounding. Probably bottom 5 defensively.

Probably 18 wins.

I mean for the last 4-5 years, the 76ers record was 15+ (aside from 2015-2016 which they won 10), the rest of the seaosns were 18,19, 35 win teams. I don't think our team is that bad compare to those

I bet Rozier would average 20 points on this team.
