Simmons and embiid have 10 points 7 turnovers.

Next Shaq and Penny though, right?

Philly will rue losing the last game.

I can’t imagine butler is feeling good about signing up for more alongside embiid and Simmons. Embiid is questionable every other game and Simmons is approaching unplayable against good opponents.

Kawhi is shooting pretty poorly so far and he still has a 13-10-3-2 half with no turnovers and 1 foul. Yeesh, I hope he goes back West

I kinda wonder ....are the raptors players falling in love with Kawhi .

Enough to where , some might see the writing on the wall,   life after Kawhi might suck , and be wanting to follow him OUT WEST .

Sad to think our season likely ends in about 26 hours 

I'm fine with whatever happens as long as it's not Golden State or Philadelphia winning it all.

Simmons is a born Laker .   Its just a matter of time.  Match made in heaven

Bucks will beat Raptors in 5-6 games. No contest.

Giannis owns Kawhi.

It'll be interesting, but they already have a tonne of money locked away. Lowry will be making $33m next season. Ibaka will be making $23m. Gasol has an option worth $25m. That's already $81m locked away in 3 veteran guys, none of which are legit All-Star caliber players.

Luckily they have Siakam on a rookie contract. But most of their key rotational pieces are already locked up. Hell, even Danny Green, Norman Powell and VanVleet are all going to make around $10m next season. Not sure what players they have that are even Free Agents. Maybe some demand trades, but that would be a surprise

Amazing how some people on here were ready to anoint the Sixers as the best team in the east a couple nights ago...

But Philly showing heart in 3rd.

I think the complete opposite of this

I will say in some people’s defense, when embiid is going he looks like Shaw. And even if Simmons is most overrated in league, butler is all star player and reddick and Harris are solid players. That could be a very good team when embiid plays like Shaq. Unfortunately embiid is really out of shape, injury prone and, according to their local reporters has awful diet. He may be capable of being like Shaq if he can get serious about fitness and diet. Otherwise he will be a big disappointment because he has so much talent

Asl I realize that Shaq was not great and fitness diet, but played in a very different era when centers could get away without running around the 3 point line and constant switching.

Welcome back Danny Green dam he is wet tonight Philly is done lol.
