Maxey doesn’t miss a damn shot. If he didn’t brick those free throws wow

There just aren't enough quality wings in the league. That's why OG looks like a freaking monster out there.

I think we all still dream of a scenario where Masai fleeced Maxey from the Sixers.....if only Morey wasn't their GM I'm convinced it would've happened.

After that game 5 in Philly watching Precious looking like our next-Pascal-with-a-3 and Maxey looking like the next-John Wall-with-a-3....I could have never imagined the gap between those 2 would be this gigantic 2 years later

I wish, honestly I don't think there are any GMs that would've seriously considered it (maybe if Babcock came back). In retrospect, the market dictated that Lowry had nearly reached buy-out status by the time he was dealt.

Sucks that I like Maxey, I wish nothing but misery for the rest of the Sixers and Embiid (outside of the ex-Raps obv)

Embiid has the right to put blame on Tobias Harris..courageous effort on that leg

Brunson is just extremely durable it’s reminding me of Iverson. Literally dribbles around seeking contact.

Embiid with a dirty play again.
