I love Maxey though and wish he was on my team.

Not sure of the reasoning here. Embiid is the #1 option if he were on the Knicks.
It is more an indication of his teammates than Maxey/Brunson's play.
Wrong! Maxey has struggled as the top option when Joel is not playing this entire season, but you wouldn't know that by not watching Sixers games.

Sure got me there.

Pretty good.

Others have knocked Maxey's ability to lead the team to wins with no Embiid...

How likely is Brunson to do any better on the Sixers with no Embiid?

Maxey is among the most overrated players in the NBA. Y'all need to stop elevating players that put up numbers because of usage and not playing defense.

Brunsons not a superstar?

But here we are and both players have played great this series and there clearly isn’t any possible way you could say either player has a massive advantage over the other.

Stats this series… (5 games)

Maxey: 32.4ppg 7.2a 5.2r on 50 43 88 splits PER 23.1

Brunson: 34.4ppg 8.4a 4.8r on 42 29 79 splits PER 21.6

Maxey has been way more efficient but Brunson has been able to get his team more wins this series. Brunson is putting up Iverson type playoff stats taking 30fga this series compared to Maxey who is taking 24fga.

Which player is better and which player would you rather for your team?

See you next season Hussien

Oh grow up. Not sure why posters exaggerate instead of using stats that proves he's not close to what you are accusing him of. I doubt you even watch much basketball but more of a hater.

Did Maxey not just have a worse roster around him health/age & talent wise vs Brunson?

Knicks had no Julius Randle. Brunson carried. Maxey ain’t there yet. It is what it is.

Brunson just won a series with OG Anunoby as his second best player. Maxey lost that same series with the reigning league MVP as his running mate.

Brunson is a much more complete player right now.

Joel Embiid, still undefeated when healthy (apparently)
