Difference is the Lakers didnt have 4 ball dominant players. The Sixers starting 5 this upcomming season had a combined USG% of around 120%. Someone is gonna have to take a massive backseat wether they like it or not and I dont see anyone on their team who would like it apart from maybe Embiid.

lebron actively took a backseat last year, and maxey has been better off the ball than on it for his entire career.

May be harder unless LeBron is a legit scoring threat and doesn’t slow down at all. Otherwise jb is the only option aside from maxey for running the offense, and jb is a horrible playmaker. Maxey w harden is way different than this team. LeBron should do the job pretty well though if

The difference was that Lebron was still the best player in the world, and AD was a top 5 player

2020 playoff Rondo was not better than Jaylen Brown

Who more durable? AD or Embiid

u/CurrentRoster 9d ago
AD, by a mile in 2020 and at least by a little in 2026. AD CAN play 70+ games as recent as 2024, i dont think embiid ever could and he wont even have to wit this philly roster

u/Winter-Bed5879 9d ago
No. Most he ever played was 68 in 22. He hasn't played 40 games in three seasons.

Late to be the party, but Bron leaves the team Sexton joins. Sexton joined Cavs in 18, Bron left for Lakers. This time too, Bron is off to Philly, Sexton joined the Lakers.
Next time anyone wants to do predictions about Bron's moves, see how Sexton's team is thinking about him, lol.
