@@donbelenger817 oh no I agree, I think Stephen A is a duma$$ but I just disagree with the common sentiment that everyone online discredits analysts by saying isn’t this the guy that predicted this team would do ______ fill in the blank with a bad take. Every analyst on TV has several horrifically bad takes, even ones that don’t suck like Stephen A
Sixers fan and a life long Philadelphia area guy, I believe this is the most dynamic and potentially the most potent combination of starters we’ve ever had.
For Stephen A to say that 76ers will knock off the Celtics he is a Knicks fan why is he jumping on 76ers van wagon but it doesn't matter what he says he said Dallas was going to be at Boston Celtics in 6 he is a liar as we all know
What’s being missed is PG is better then Harris just that alone takes us pass the second round did u not see how we dominated when he was on the floor problem was once he got hurt it wasn’t nobody solid to help Maxey and we got crushed on the boards Drummond solves the Embiid missing problem and we finally got athletic wings now….Maxey will become the big shot taker by the end of the year
@@RobertSmith-rr1us Us real fans that watch games know bro. We just gotta keep our heads down now so when we start succeeding (health involved ofc) then they'll change subject.
your speaking the Truth....they said the same thing about the suns when they staked their team, but yet they got swepted in the playoffs a couple of months ago. go figure.
Embiid can’t stay healthy and isn’t a big game player. Paul George is old as hell and regressing. They are nowhere close to the Celtics just pure ESPN delusion
I can bet money that embiid is not only better then but averages more then ya favorite player.so ya comment is irrelevant frfr if we bein honest, you could’ve just kept it pushin if you was gon say sum negative!!!
I can't say s***my team is the Cleveland cavaliers Northeast Ohio stand up but I got to agree with you on the Philadelphia 76ers analysis as a pure basketball fan....🤷🏿♂️
No one said they’re going to to knock them. They said they have the best chance out of the east to compete with the Celtics. Steve A only said they’re better than Knicks now not Celtics.
🚨 MY OPINION TO COMPLETE PHILLY ROSTER ❗️ Pg- maxey Sg - oubre Sf - Caleb Martin Pf - Paul George C - Embiid Pg- Marcus smart or Pbev Sg - Eric Gordon Sf- Luke kennard Pf - Marcus morris or Jae crowder C - Drummond I just feel we need another sharp shooter , and some tough scrappy guys like pbev, Marcus smart , Jae crowder & phillys own morris twins.
how BS is it to be predicting a champion before rosters are even set come on man wait until you got something to say worth saying or hearing??? no way hollow BS evoking an avalanche of more hollow BS
Sports critics are some of the worst in the media. To think that they can dethrone Boston before seeing how they are together means that ESPN is just hyping up teams for no reason.
Forget the title. Tatum and Brown have been to more conference finals than everyone on the sixers combined. Embid hasn’t been to one. Not one. He is 5 years older than Brown and Tatum. This isn’t NBA 2k. You have to actually make it through a season without injury.
and ended up with only one chip so far, all that combined greatness and appearances don’t mean anything. that teams only gonna be together for 1/2 more years anyway so soak it in
Really you have to be available for post season and everybody contribute. Celtics the team to beat. Sixers could win 2 games but idk about the series unless Celtics face 1 crucial injury or multiple injuries that require games missed.
I think the Achilles heal has always been that SF position for the Sixers and bridging Embiid and Maxey was essential to compete defensively against Tatum and Brown. Caleb Martin will also be another key signing to matchup better. Going to be a good game when those two teams play.
Ok let’s see , Tatum is better then PG , brown is better then maxi , but Joel Embiid is better then everyone but he never complete the whole entire season , so no they are not near the Celtics . Plus’s the Celtics have multiple guys
The "experts" do not take into account that the Celtics have players who are still improving with each season. That would include Tatum and Brown, along with other young players on the team.
Not really, Brown had a sort of down season last year and Tatum has peaked. Their strength is that they have defenders/scorers at all 5 starter positions. Not that their top 2 players are so good.
@@Ohitsmyturnexactly and their starting 5 is making too much money to where eventually their bench will be bad. Hauser is the saving grace off that boston bench. If i was their gm I’d trade pritchard. Ik he shot 2/2 on halfcourters in the finals but when you look at the rest of his stats he was dogshit for the money they’re paying him. He’s not even a good defender. Philly has a comparable bench as of now with better contract/draft pick situation. also maxey as of now has the most potential out of any player on philly and boston combined.
@@troelembiid6970you do know who led the finals in assists right? In case you didnt know, its tatum. His playmaking helped thr team win the chip. He led the celtics in pts, rebs and assists in the finals.
PG about to be the point forward same role LO had with the lakers during their finals runs, maxey going to be better this season so embiid doesn’t have to avg 30+ for us too win meaning that less pressure on his body as long as no one falls on his legs he straight
@@Afineadditionwow I bet if the Celtics was going to lose what was going to be your saying again? Oh how they sucks and this and that blah blah blah? Your just mad your bum ass team didn’t do shit in the playoffs.. yall keep hating
Remember, this is Stephen A who says this. The same guy that said the Clippers would win a championship and Dallas would win the finals. Most likely, Maxey will be out there by himself in the playoffs.
Right, because Embiid will DEF not get injured. again. like he does every year. Because he's fat and out of shape with bad knees. This is gonna be your year champ!
man not even close. Embiid has been healthy a bunch in the playoffs, with stud teams and they lose every time. 6ers haven't beaten then Celtics in the playoffs in like 43 years. Embiid is extremely lazy and never conditioned. 6ers will never win with him
@@KingTibbs33 its crazy telling straight up lies lmao. The fact that you just called a dude that plays in the NBA lazy just tells me how much common sense you dont have.
None of these players has come close to sniffing a championship. Suddenly they're a threat to the best constructed team in the league?? Typical SAS foolishness.
pg went 7 games against peak lebron (2013) as a first option. he helped lead clips to their first and only conference finals 6 games without kawhi. As a 3rd option i have faith in him looking at his track record. He will be asked to do less and have more open shots due to the attention embiid and maxey get from defenses.
Only thing disrespectful is what he's accomplished what an absolute waste of trades and money and he has the audacity to say that The entitlement is incredible he literally has under 200 points in the playoffs what a chump Great job Philly
How about let them play first then lets see if the sixers can even get past 2nd round. This is too tiring, every year philly this philly that! Its tradition now.
I wanna see Philly front office take control and sit joel down against his will for the 1st time. He get in his own way wanting to play and prove folks wrong I respect it but everybody don't respect toughness they rather laugh at another man getting hurt. Take a page out of toronto book load manage best player until he's needed.
By load manage I mean play more games but play less minues sitting until the 6-8 minute mark in quarters 2-4 . We got drummond now he can hold it down more than paul reed I like the ucla rookie we got too a lob threat bona or something like that
@@Shaq610exactly he only got hurt last year because he chose to play because the media kept whining about him “ducking” jokic. Never mind the fact he destroys him every time the play. Screw what people say just keep them knees right for the playoffs.
Embiid is more delicate than chandelier glass; he won't last the season. he's getting OLDER and his legs, particularly his knees, aren't going to magically regenerate, rme!
The Paul George glazing is ridiculous. So this elevates them over the Knicks?!? HOW?!? Paul George is INJURY PRONED AND A YEAR OLDER! Mikal Bridges is a MUCH younger 2 way defender and hasn’t missed a single game IN HIS CAREER! You telling me, that these injury proned superstars give you more confidence then this way deeper younger Knicks team?!?
ESPN always talk crap and can’t back it up. They all pick the Mavs to beat the Celtics and when the Mavs were no match to the Celtics and got their ass whooped they all kept quiet. Just a bunch of idiots on this show
This year your words will end up haunting you 🔔🔴⚪️🔵 Joel has a bomb squad around him💥🤷🏻 No more Tobias Harris we have Caleb Martin and Paul George. They could barely beat us with a horrible team around Joel🤦🏻♂️ Tobias had 0 in the playoffs , Paul will not do that and Caleb Martin is a playoff player are you forgetting ??
@@Bandz6x yeah I remember Caleb Martin 4 out of 5games against us this past postseason only having scoring 5 points but OKAY Philly boy keep dreaming 😂🫵🏻
I do not want to see the Celtics win another championship they were lucky thanks to their style of dirty play and they were aided by the refs during the entire season all through their title run in which they were successful but not deserved
Joel can’t stay healthy, suiting up for Team USA… Glad to be a Celtics fan… Joel is basically Dak Prescott, regular season MVP types… all the stats, no jewelry.
In NBA no matter how great u are in roasting people and with comebacks, u r always gonna get roasted badly if u dnt hav Ring..look at Barkley always get roasted good..
And let's be honest. Brown and Tatum are really good players. But let's be honest. Boston has a bunch of road players. That fit well. And don't think Holford is going to keep producing. Especially after they won this year. They won't be as hungry. I guarantee you even if its not the Sixers. Boston will not repeat
Let me see an healthy Embiid in the playoffs first then I will believe it and also Paul George is very injury plagued. Didn't Phoenix prove a big 3 wont do it.. There is only one basketball and chemistry has to be good for it to work.
O think the Celtics will be more hungry than ever to prove they are the Best team heading into next season the headline will be how easy it was for the Celtics i feel Joe will use that to make the Celtics hungry to make another run keep in mind Brad brought back this entire team don't sleep on these boys they gonna be eager to prove us wrong
Knicks and Sixer fans just keep forgetting who they are. Some how some way!!!!!, Check there history, at least the Media is talking about actually Chip contenders not can't get out first rd playin teams GSW, Lakers,Bucks,Heat. Good job Media aka Haters. 😂😂😂😂
@@chaseban8383 The same thing that has happened throughout their careers. Embid will be a monster and go down with a serious leg injury and PG will have to do to much and have some silly calf strain for the playoffs when Embid comes back and lose to the Pacers in the 2nd round. Rinse and repeat.
oh, I didn't know adding a player who's constantly injured would help Joel Embid's knee's not be made of triscuits. They'll be hurt and limping to the 6th seed, like always. Trust the process of sucking.
Yall better stop believing the Celtics the east was injured and Cleveland gave em all they could handle so again healthy Bucks team healthy heat team and Celtics will be back to even with everybody
Paul George is a really good player however he has yet to win anything at any of his stops....it continues. i don't think they can beat a healthy Boston as long as Joel is shooting 3 pointers. I am more concerned about a healthy Knicks team beating boston. the Atlantic Division should be fun next season. I cannot wait!
I understand that Boston is a really good team. But there is no doubt that IF Joel is healthy he is by far the best player in the league. They will definitely give Boston a run. And as far as the Knicks. If Embid was healthy the Sixers would have one the series
Nah, they still suck, i may be wrong but from what i all see from embid pg wont do anything, the only thing that can stop boston if they got 2 key players that will get injured but if its only 1 key player just like what happen to kp, its still all boston.
Stephen A ain’t slick he trying get Knocks fly under radar he want Sixers take that heat ofc Sixers got hot lineup but they know they gotta prove it on floor and Boston is a machine NY Indiana ain’t going nowhere and Milwaukee there too and no sleeping on Miami sneaky asses
