What’s interesting is that Philly still has a decent team without Harden. But it looks like Embiid’s already checked out.

LMAO Embiid will be traded by then.

He's not staying in Philly to play with OG or Klay neither of those guys are the answer.


I expect Embiid to be traded at the trade deadline. New York Knicks finally get their superstar.


morey ain't gonna be the guy to trade embiid.

Kelly Oubre had two bone-headed turnovers in the paint.

well i mean Lillard is guarding him. Lillard makes a lot of offensive guards look good.

Maxey is so fast he just dribbled to where the roller should've been instead of passing it there. :o

Reminds me of Wemby blocking a jumper last night while actively guarding a different player than the one who was shooting.

It’s crazy this guy continues to commit charged and they won’t call it on him.

Watching these two teams play on offense…makes you really appreciate the Nuggets.

I feel that decent teams will hunt down Lillard in the playoffs. chink in the armor for the bucks if there was a weakness. Lillard switched off of Maxey the next play lol

Bobby Portis always acts like it’s the game 7 of the nba finals. Relax bro.

How many NBA superstars in history have been allowed to just bowl into players?

Giannis doesn't look like he's added anything to his game. I'm really wondering if this postseason is going to be any different. Dame's elite, but he isn't exactly unstoppable himself.
