They SHOULD be the #1 seed in 2019, they've acquired the 3 best players from the draft the past 4 years, even throw in Saric (arguable ROY) and Roco (one of the better perimeter defenders in the NBA), JJ, Holmes Okafor etc.

Embiid, yes he's better than Wiggins
Simmons, yes I think he's better than anyone else
Fultz, arguable, but certainly has a case

Its probably hard for the devs to figure out a good way to knock a young but talented team coding wise. What should be is if you go into MyLeague or MyGM, team chemistry should be extremely low for a team like Philly, so while they are talented they likley wont win that many games this yr. I havent dug into all the ratings with every team just yet to see how certain players are rated, to see how they came up with the rating they gave them. Likley with Embiid, they didnt lower his durability enough, not sure how much that lowers rating, for players that break easier than glass. Although Imbiid is in a contract yr so he will probably stay healthy for this season,lol, thats typically the case with guys like him,lol.

I think they're rated fairly in terms of overall/potential, they're a little lower than they should be IMO, but they're certainly not overrated by any means

As a fellow lifelong 76ers fan, I agree, they're definitely underrated

I can agree with you here. In the end, it all comes down to playing as a team and chemistry.

The Sixers go to the finals in both Live and 2K in various sims I've done, in year one.

So, no, they're not overrated. It's now their world, nobody knows it yet.

I know playing against an AI controlled 76ers is easy because they don't have anyone that scares you when they have the ball.

Embiid could be that guy, but his tendencies make him play passively.
Simmons would be fun to user control, but his jumper is just not there. Once you realize to just back completely off he is nothing to worry about.
Reddick cannot create his own shots, and because of the makeup of the team other guys don't get him open looks.
Fultz is hard to gauge because I use the Wizards and Wall is pretty decent.
