Which superstar do you think faces the most pressure to win a ring this season? (alien.top)

Feels like the answer is never someone who already has one so it's between guys like Tatum/Luka/Embiid/Booker/SGA

Out of that group I'd probably go with Tatum because of how stacked the Celtics are overall and how many near misses they've had(could also see Embiid but I don't think anyone truly sees the Sixers roster as championship caliber or actually expects them to win this year)

Indeed, he does eventually need to win. He's only 24 and still has a good number of years on his contract. The fact that we're winning games now is great which means with some upgrades he will have a legit chance. I just don't see us as a true contender this year (but definitely a possible deep playoff run), our defense is still too Swiss cheese to compete actively with teams like Denver and the Celtics.

Not sold on denver being the runaway west champs this year. Their depth looks worse than last year. I think every western series is gonna be a toss up this year
