They most likely will not pack the Wells Fargo Center every night this season in South Philadelphia, far from it, but they will have close to a full house this evening to watch the three superstars the Miami Heat bring to town. Second overall pick Evan Turner will not immediately join that superstar strata for the Sixers. As a matter of fact, he's not even in the starting lineup for the first game of the season. Doug Collins has said Jason Kapono will get the start to give the team a guy who can shoot in the starting five. Those five will feature Spencer Hawes at center, Elton Brand at power forward, Jason Kapano at strong forward, Andre Iguodala at the shooting guard, and young Jrue Holiday at the point. "I've got a very flawed team. I don't have a legit shooting two guard and I really don't have what you would consider a legit power forward in this league," Doug Collins said this afternoon on WIP of his squad. But he does have 10 or 11 guys that can all play. How he works with and develops those guys will be his biggest test this season. As for his best player this preseason? Collins says that would be Lou Williams who is now his scoring threat off the bench. They'll get a challenge right from the first tip this season, facing the ridiculously hyped Heat team that walked out of the TD Garden in Boston to chants of "Oh-ver-rate-ed!" last night. You think LeBron wants to bounce back in a big way? The Sammy D. and Willie Green era is behind us. The new story starts tonight with a new cast of characters against a formidable Heat foe.
