Nurse you have Embiid and Maxey

you still need Embiid to score 50 pts to get a win?! FU

Embiid choked in that game. Maxey also came up well short. Don't want to hear about their regular season stats.

Thought Brunson was a Lowry clone coming out of Villanova but he's taken his offensive game way beyond what Lowry could do.

Lowry was the only Sixer that showed any heart in the 4th.

OG and Precious were critical in that win, alongside Hart and Brunson. They locked Embiid up in the 4th.

There’s no way he’s anything above 6 feet and has the vertical and athleticism of The bottom quartile of the league. He should not be that good. Amazing what perseverance will do sometimes.

Interesting discussion. Maxey was targeted today on defense. Iq is a better defensive player but a worse offensive player

Kyle made a bunch of winning plays in the fourth but you can only do so much when your MVP doesn't get a single bucket and is rebounding like Bargs. Awesome game from OG. Great to see.
