Philadelphia is currently at 4th position in the eastern conference without Star Forward Ben Simmons. Tobias Harris and Joel Embiid are leading Philadelphia in scoring. But even without them, Doc Rivers will be pleased with Win against Portland Trail Blazers.
Philadelphia managed 112.1 points per game thanks to major role play by Seth Curry, Georges Niang, Danny Green, and Andre Drumond. This consistency in the shooting has overshadowed their defensive weakness. But the inclusion of Ben Simmons will benefit them in further matches.

Chicago Bulls vs Philadelphia 76’ers Match Prediction
After 7 game performances, people are now looking at the Bulls as one of the favourites of the season, while Philadelphia has always been on the championship periphery with their furious Front Court duo – Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid.
