|
| | | PHILADELPHIA: GUARDS: Welcome to Tankadelphia. MICHAEL CARTER-WILLIAMS will be handed the reigns at the point, and has the size and savvy to create some offense. But a work-in-progress jumper and too many risky passes will lead to plenty of lost possessions . . . The Sixers would love to unload perennially disappointing ex-No. 2 pick EVAN TURNER. He's yet to develop a jump shot, and while he'll start for a laughably thin Philly team, he looks more and more like a second-unit player . . . JAMES ANDERSON could end up playing a lot of minutes off the bench, simply because the Sixers don't have enough NBA-caliber players . . . JASON RICHARDSON will miss at least half the season after major knee surgery. He may never contribute in the NBA again'TONY WROTEN could see the floor plenty as a high-upside player who must cut down on his turnovers and improve his jump shot. FORWARDS: THADDEUS YOUNG will likely step up as the No. 1 option, and he very well may be the only player on this team that would make a rotation of a playoff contender. We'll see what he can do with defenses focused on stopping him . . . LAVOY ALLEN will be leaned on for heavy minutes as one of their few proven players . . . ARNETT MOULTRIE might end up with a very big role this year, as the Sixers are especially lacking post players. He at least rebounds and gets in people's way defensively . . . Philly will try its hand with ROYCE WHITE, who has plenty of talent but just as much baggage. He and the Rockets couldn't see eye-to-eye with how to manage his anxiety issues . . . TIM OHLBRECHT might actually see the court on this team. CENTERS: SPENCER HAWES should start at center, especially early. His mid-range shooting makes him one of the few offensive options on this team . . . Coming off a torn ACL, NERLENS NOEL probably won't be ready until December. He should contribute as a rim protector and rebounder, but will be pushed around and doesn't have much on offense . . . KWAME BROWN is waiting for his contract to be bought out. | | ATLANTA: GUARDS: It was a rocky offseason for JEFF TEAGUE, who looked like a goner at one point. Instead, he'll be the focal point of Atlanta's offense . . . Coming off a torn ACL, resident gunner LOUIS WILLIAMS is a question mark entering the season, especially as a guy who relied so much on quickness and explosiveness. He may not be right again until 2014-15 . . . JOHN JENKINS was rock solid as a rookie and should see a bump in playing time with DeShawn Stevenson gone. Jenkins is a legit shooter who can hold his own defensively . . . Rookie DENNIS SCHRODER is a year or two away from consistent minutes, but the penniless man's Rajon Rondo comparisons aren't off . . . JARED CUNNINGHAM is a middling talent destined for a minor role. FORWARDS: PAUL MILLSAP was lost in the shuffle in Utah last year, but he'll be a significant part of this offense in Atlanta. He's a well-rounded power forward and may prove to be a better fit than Josh Smith was for the Hawks . . . KYLE KORVER is coming off a huge year and will play major minutes at both wing spots again . . . A shadow of his former self, ELTON BRAND will rotate in at power forward and center . . . This generation's junkyard dog, DEMARRE CARROLL gives Atlanta some defensive options on the wing and energy off the bench. Outside of some transition baskets, he's a non-factor on offense . . . Euro veteran PERO ANTIC is a finesse stretch four who provides frontcourt depth. CENTERS: After playing a lot of power forward alongside Zaza Pachulia last year, AL HORFORD will spend most of this season at center. With Josh Smith gone, he's poised to have his biggest offensive numbers ever . . . GUSTAVO AYON has proven capable of eating up some space on the second unit. He'll be the second big off the bench after Elton Brand. |

*76ers-Hawks Preview* =====================
By ELI KABERON STATS Writer
Philadelphia (5-4) at Atlanta (4-4), 7:30 p.m. EDT
For the first three years of his NBA career, James Anderson mostly came off the bench and provided some scoring. Now he's trying to build off the best game of his career as he continues navigating being a full-time starter.
Anderson and the 76ers seek a second straight win Friday night as they play the Atlanta Hawks.
With a career scoring average of 4.2 points, the 20th overall pick in 2010 had reached double figures in scoring just 10 times in 125 games and twice in Philadelphia's first eight contests this season. The shooting guard, though, had a breakout performance in a 123-117 overtime victory Wednesday night against the Houston Rockets, making 12 of 16 shots to finish with a career-high 36 points - nearly double his previous high of 19 set against Golden State on April 26, 2012, while with San Antonio.
"I got in a rhythm early and guys did a good job finding me," said Anderson, who made 6-of-8 three-pointers as his scoring average jumped to 10.1 points. "I finally got an opportunity and it's great timing."
The 76ers (5-4) played without rookie Michael Carter-Williams, who missed the game because of a bruised left arch. In his place, Anderson carried more of the offense and Tony Wroten had a memorable game of his own, becoming the first player in NBA history to record a triple-double in his first start with 18 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists.
"I have never got a triple-double in my life. Middle school, high school, college - never," Wroten said. "So it's just crazy."
Still, Carter-Williams' absence leaves many glaring holes for Philadelphia. The 11th overall pick leads the 76ers in assists (7.6) and steals (2.6) and is second in scoring at 17.4 points per game. He also leads all rookies in minutes played at 36.6 per game.
The 76ers will once again rely on small forward Evan Turner, who has scored 20 or more points in eight of the team's nine games.
Even if Anderson and Wroten can again replace his scoring production, Carter-Williams will be missed on the defensive end, where 76ers will have to contain Hawks point guard Jeff Teague. Averaging 18.1 points and 9.9 assists - both career highs - Teague has been the catalyst for a revamped Atlanta attack this season.
The Hawks are scoring 103.0 points per game - five more than their 2012-13 average - thanks in large part to Teague, who has more control of the offense this season under first-year coach Mike Budenholzer. Still, Atlanta has been sloppy at times, and its 15 turnovers led to 23 points for New York in a 95-91 loss Wednesday night.
"We made mistakes," said Teague, who had 25 points and eight assists but also four turnovers. "We're still a new group and we're still trying to figure one another out. We're getting better every game."
Al Horford, who added 23 points on 11-of-14 shooting, averaged 15.5 points and 9.6 rebounds in four games versus Philadelphia last season.
"I feel good about our team," Horford said. "We just need to learn how to hold the leads and finish out these games. We've let some of these slip away, so we need to be better in that regard."
The teams split four games last season, but Philadelphia has won seven of the last nine meetings.
