This off-season feels different for the Sixers because they finally have significant cap space to build around Joel Embiid

This is the first off season where we have Cap space and We have some room to make some, a difference in our lineups. [Even] if we don't [get Paul George or LeBron James], just using that Tobias [Harris] money to go get guys like Dante [DiVincenzo], like the role players that the Knicks had who are really good, that go and get guys like that who can surround [Embiid] and hit shots.

The Sixers did use their cap space to sign Paul George and several key role players (Eric Gordon, Caleb Martin) in the 2024 off-season.

While subjective, Jaylen Brown went on to win Eastern Conference Finals MVP and NBA Finals MVP in 2024, making this take age poorly in the short term.

The Eastern Conference is a cakewalk for the Celtics

Yeah. No, the East is a cakewalk... They should lose one, maybe two games. The over under should be three. Maybe one series next, next game.

The Celtics went 12-2 through the Eastern Conference playoffs (beating Heat 4-1, Cavs 4-1, and Pacers 4-0), making Hank's prediction spot on.
