What's going to be the bigger number? Golden St wins or Philadelphia loses?

I think both go over 70 but this is going to be a tight race

This should be a prop. I'd take the Warriors. There just isn't much parity in the NBA, probably the sport with least parity out of all the major leagues.

The Sixers are beyond an embarrassment. They have one starting NBA player in Okafur......the rest are bench players or YMCA rec leaguers. This is ugly.

both are very likely in the 70's

Sixers. They aren't trying to win and since NBA contracts are guaranteed; they will tank and management will make sure they do. Add future injuries into it as well.

What potential #1 draft pick is Philly chasing?

Ben Simmons.

League should force the equity group guy to sell the team. Fans, players, community and quality of play all suffer because of him tanking and profiting. At the very least change draft where you can only be eligible for lottery 2 consecutive seasons before being left out for 1.

Crazy that both should go over 70. To me it is a coin flip.

Sixers aren't really in a super tank mode like everyone thinks. They just sign any veteran free agents since they weren't going to win this year anyway. They aren't tanking anymore then they were the previous two years when they were shedding themselves or all their veteran players. It's not like the NFL or MLB where if you have the worst record you get the top pick. Sixers of all teams know that, they haven't faired well in lottery luck at all. They certainly aren't banking on getting Simmons, they wanted Wiggins and Russel the last two draft and were able to get neither.

I'm not sure why they are so bad this year, maybe they finally gave up on their coach. They really shouldn't be this bad. Last year they won about 17 games and they figured to be a bit better this year. But..
-Nerlens Noel has gotten worse instead of better
-Nik Stauskas whom they were very hopeful would produce totally sucks
-Covington, Wroten, Grant, Sampson who all have the physical talent to play NBA basketball have shown no improvements, which I'd imagine falls on the coach

Stauskus is god awful. I don't know why he gets any minutes.

Nba is talent......that's what wins. It's probably the only sport where the best team actually wins the championship. They have zero talent besides Okafur. They are trading for Ish Smith who will be their 2nd best player. Covington is a pro but no better than a 3rd option for any NBA team.....Noel offense is regressing and he's probably gonna be a very average NBA player.

Although im not a huge Brown fan......no coach in history is winning with this group.
