    Easiest poll question of all time. It's been the same answer for 4+ years!

    We get to play against a starting lineup of Maxey, Seth, Shake, Harris and Drummond... I hope this isn't a trap game but we should be able to beat this team.

    Didn't we lose to this lineup minus Harris in Philly?

    Another Home game with a day rest. Hoping they can come out fast this game.

    You don't think with the lineup that the Sixers are putting out there that we should expect a win against them at home?

    This team will finish 41-41…… I don’t “expect” anything from this team.

    Just can't shoot 36% from the field like Denver did.

    Except they'll finish better than that and you won't own up to being wrong.

    The polls lately have basically been "How can we hate on C.J. McCollum today?" Got "Bench him" last game and "trade him" today.

    Reminds me why game threads aren't for me.

    Still Philly just played a solid game in Denver and this game Saturday will be tough.
    Would love to see a win.

    I am one of the few that like him and want him here (UNLESS)... a great package deal comes by. Ben Simmons is not a good choice!

    Nobody knows exactly what the record will be but that's his prediction and you got one different then he does. My prediction was 36-44 wins I went with the low number because I don't think this team is constructed for Billups system. But I hope I am wrong because I root for them to win every time out.

    36 is probably low but not if Lillard doesn’t get better and opts for surgery.
    Very possible.
