Which Maxey? The guy we've seen so far this year? He's a bench player. Last year's Maxey? That's a laughable statement.

If he has another two guys on the floor that are better than him, he’s OK but if he’s asked to carry a team, he’s not that guy

Why is our defensive strategy to give up a wide open 3 on every possession?

This is all on Joel Embiid. There’s absolutely no reason he should be missing the start of the season. I hope after the investigation, the league suspends him for 25 games and fines the Sixers up substantial amount of money. This kind of bull has to stop.

Doing a good job of winning the rebounding battle in the first half.

I’m definitely starting to wonder if Maxey’s thumb injury is worse than we know about. Problem is that we can’t afford to let him heal because we have Joel taking up permanent residence in an ice tub.

They just have to take Maxey out at this point and put him on the bench for for the rest of the game. He’s killing us.

Lot of rim outs for Maxey to start the second half. This is an instance where Maxey needs to work his way to the FT line just to see a shot go in.

He missed on the FT line as well...he's horrible in this game. Caleb Martin also has a very low arching shot on the FT line.

Maxey needs Embiid like a fish needs water.
