Embiid Will Lead the 76ers to the NBA Finals
Finally, the Philadelphia 76ers are one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference. Looking ahead at the 2018-19 season, there is absolutely nothing standing in their way from competing for the Eastern Conference title. The Boston Celtics are going to be tough, but the 76ers can contend with them if their young players take the next step.
Embiid will play a major factor in that development. If he does work his way into MVP contention, the 76ers are going to have a chance to win the East.
Philadelphia has done an excellent job of building a talented roster around Embiid. Simmons is the perfect No. 2 option behind Embiid, while the 76ers also have a core that include J.J. Redick, Robert Covington, Markelle Fultz, and Dario Saric. All four of those players are talented and dangerous in their own ways.
It is going to be a very exciting season for the 76ers. Embiid will take the next step and will take the 76ers all the way to the NBA Finals. Beating the Golden State Warriors likely won’t happen, but the franchise will have gone from last to first in a very short period of time.
