I think he's a little delusional that he'll make the Sixers contenders. The regular season will show him how wrong he is.

The 76ers are 'my' team because I liked Dr. J. I'd like to see them win a title but not because LeBron James joined the team.

Sorry, bud, but Father Time is quickly catching up to James and given the other players around him, it doesn't seem like like the team chemistry will mix right during the grind of the season. On paper, they may seem to be contenders, but paper and reality are two vastly different things.

I think it benefits the young guys. If they play him at PF I think it would even help Embiid. James is still athletic enough to get around traditional post players and has the court vision and passing skills to hit Brown, Maxey, and Edgecombe moving without the ball. Should free up guys to get shots without much pressure.
They can load manage James and Embiid during the season with an eye on the playoffs.
I'd have to look at their role players but they might suffer from lack of shooting. Still should be good enough to challenge New York, Cleveland, Boston.

I've been a 76ers fan since "Dr.J'/Julius Erving (1976-1987). I'm not a LeBron James fan. BUT, If LeBron wins one more title, He'd be my G.O.A.T over my friend Michael Jordan. I also didn't like Charles Barkley (1984-1992) or Allen Iverson (1996-2006) as a 76er. My way-too-early Eastern Conference Champs, Philadelphia 76ers Keep Joel Embiid healthy and is a lock.
76ers Projected Starters:
PG Tyrese Maxey
SG VJ Edgecombe
SF LeBron James
SF Jaylen Brown
C Joel Embiid

How about Mose, pal? How'd he not get a mention?
PS: Embiid is a dirty player. I could never root for a team he plays for.

* Moses Malone (1982-86) in my opinion was the greatest center during the 80's. Malone lead Philadelphia to their last NBA Championship with Julius Erving, Maurice Cheeks, Andrew Toney, Darryl Dawkins (Doctor Dukenstein) and .
Houston Rockets (1976–1982)
Philadelphia 76ers (1982–1986)
Washington Bullets (1986-1998)
* When Healthy Joel Embiid is the best pure center playing in the NBA today.
