Good plan except LeBron is 41 (42 by mid season and Father Time coming for your athletic skills is undefeated in life) and it feels like Embiid is always hurt and doesn’t play.

As far as I remember from our ODAAT NBA talks TFF actually supports the Sixers.

I thought he hated all of his local Philly sports teams. Maybe it was just the Eagles back in the day. I know he's a big Cowboys fan.

LeBron is still producing at his age. He's hungry for more rings. He doesn't need to be the #1 guy with the 76ers.

The Atlanta Hawks roster looks very good. They have youth on their side. I like some of their new additions. They gave the Knicks a tough series. It's going to be difficult for the Knicks to repeat.

Projected Starting Lineup
PG CJ McCollum
SG Nickeil Alexander-Walker
SF Dyson Daniels
PF Jalen Johnson
C Onyeka Okongwu

Key Rotation and Roster Players
Backcourt & Wings: Luguentz Dort, Corey Kispert, Aaron Wiggins, Kingston Flemings
Frontcourt: Asa Newell, Mouhamed Gueye, Jock Landale, Tony Bradley

LeBron is probably going to finish his story in Philadelphia....

I saw a mention that LeBron’s first NBA game was played 3 months before Victor Wembanyama was born.
