Too much energy he also mentioned at the start of the year that the issue with his finger makes it hard for him to box out/rebound.

It’s good to see Tucker and Tobi back. Glad they are not seriously hurt.

Embiid always schooled Rudy, even when he was getting soned but Gasol/Horford/Val/Baynes.

Because we have been in the NBA's doghouse since the tanking days that coined "Trust the Process"

Minny is going to make a run. We just need to keep cool. Anthony Edwards is all they have.

Need to stay on them. I don’t trust any lead. Edwards is a scoring machine and do not leave Conley open for any threes.

Just watch my guys they(Media/NBA) are about to fully hop on the A.Edward's train now that Morant (Kyrie Nike replacement) faults has been in plain view. I like Edward's hes going to be really good for a long time but he reminds me of Jason Richardson(I could be wrong), great athlete first bball skills second.. I heard alot of Dwade comparisons but dwade was a much better playmaker and defender coming in( I know he was older ). Any way I like Edward's but I think he has to dedicate himself to being a better all around player just like a Maxey( they are similar players but his ceiling is higher due to size and athleticism).

It would be nice if Maxey had any moves other than slashing to the rim or step back 3 . ....

21 points this quarter for Embiid.

Make that 22 thanks to that Minny technical foul

Edwards is already great defensively. His playmaking is improving, but slowly. He needs to make a big jump as a playmaker and then he'll be a complete player and bonafide superstar.
