The Celtics are the favorites in their series with the 76ers, but Philadelphia has no shortage of talent.
In fact, the Sixers have a number of players who could be very desirable to C’s fans, and who could potentially become fan favorites if they were to ever don green.
Andre Iguodala is perhaps the most recognizable name on the Sixers. His high-flying style of play has led to him appearing on plenty of highlight reels, but his defense is what makes him one of the game’s better players.
The Sixers also have a good young point guard in Jrue Holiday. The Philly floor general averaged 13.5 points and 4.5 assists per game in his third season in the league, and at just 21 years old, he’s still getting better.
Philadelphia’s leading scorer is also a point guard. Lou Williams averaged 14.9 points in 26.3 minutes per game off the bench this season, and he’s proven to be a clutch shooter capable of making big shots.
Evan Turner has also shown an ability to provide an offensive spark, and the former No. 2 overall pick should only improve as he gains more experience — much like Holiday.
As for big men, the Sixers have a talented pair in Elton Brand and Spencer Hawes, who can both rebound the basketball. That’s something the Celtics do struggle with from time to time.
