Maybe when Harden is back. Seems like Maxey only thrives with the space two superstars provide. I hope he proves me wrong, but in the meantime we needed almost all of Joel's 59 tonight.


Eh, he takes a lot of hard shots and usually has a knack for making them. He barely missed like 6-7 shots tonight that could've easily gone in, they were the type of shots he's made a lot and it feels like that's just how it goes with him. It was much better than a few games ago where he was forcing shots and taking things out of rhythm.

Yep.. Maxey's efficiency has gone downhill without Harden.

Hopefully he comes back fully healthy and gets back in shape quick. Maxey does benefit from him especially getting open shots and lanes. Add a dominant Embiid and the gravity will be insane.

I even turned the game on to watch the 4th quarter after seeing Embiid's 3-quarter stat line. Truly remarkable performance, but the rest of the team was doing their all to lose it down the stretch. Can't believe Thybulle, at this point, is still committing idiotic, mindless fouls like the one he did.

Amazing performance by Embiid on both ends. Looks like he is ready to roll.

This is similar to last season so far. We started slow, the whole team had Covid, by January we were rolling with Embiid basically carrying us. I liked how he was able to pass out of double teams tonight. He was really starting to improve at that before Harder arrived and then he did seem to regress a bit (as far as that goes). Even when Harden returns, I still want to see Embiid make those passes and get the assist. He was great at it tonight. This was the most dominant performance I personally have ever seen from him.

If Embiid can play with that defensive effort all the time, then we’ll beat everyone when Harden returns.

Most self-deprecating superstar in the NBA.
