He snapped his ankle. It will take a while to get in shape then to get over it mentally. Tatum on the other hand is a sure fire all-star. That kid can play |

I don't mean to be insensitive... but he looks like a third string scrub right now... couldn't even fight for a loose ball.
Agree with you on Tatum. |

Horford looks like he drank from the fountain of youth over the summer.
Philly looks like they miss some of their shooters. |

I don't like the Celtics but I have them on a gentlemen's bet with my friend. Something we do every year. I get first pick on games of the day. I send my W and he chooses the teams he thinks will beat my W. I got him last year for over $100.00. Would have been worst but I bet $25.00 Lakers would make the playoffs. I usually get him for close to $200.00 every year.

these two team will be for real for the next decade.....would expect both to win a ring over the next decade. The 76'ers starting lineup literally could be their starting lineup for the next decade +.

I have a feeling that Fultz will have a really solid season and add another dimension to the Sixers. His shooting form looks OK.

by the end of this season....neither will be able to beat the Warriors, but their will be no sweep in the Finals this season. I think Boston has an outside chance of seriously contending with the Warriors or anyone else in the West by the end of this season.

I defer to those who put skin in the game. I hope you win all the money.

He seems locked in on defense at least.
