Game 9: Pacers @ Sixers 11/12 @ 6 pm ET Win This One For Kelly Thread

[Bum Adebayo]

I’m very happy and glad that we actually have a coach allowing a young player to grow through his weaknesses (pnr passing/playmaking).

Doc would never.

It’s the reg season ffs development is key.

Nurse is a godsend as he’s one of the best developers of young talent in the league.

Stop. Of course Doc would put the ball in the hands of Maxey. It's exactly what he did in the games Harden was out.

We don't need to make **** up to illustrate the stark contrast between how good Nurse is and how mid Doc was. Not even sure why anyone would be bringing him up still.

It's very important, because people still have the perception it's all about talent and players, which is blatantly false, having a good coach is paramount.

[Murray_17]

Batum's release man, guy doesn't even jump lol

[76ciology]

Missing non biid/maxey scoring.

[phillynative]

They are laughing at Turner trying to post up Joel. Disrespectful

Doc had an extremely tight leash with young players especially. Look at how much Embiid is deferring to Maxey now

Didn’t we watch last season when Maxey was unsure when Harden/Embiid as the trio trying to find the right balance.

That is 100% on the coach. Of course Maxey is going to get a heap of the ball when Harden is out that’s not what I’m talking about.

The plays and sets being organised are much more fluid.

You’re wrong. Of course I would illustrate the difference between the two coaches because the other one actually does a good job of developing youngsters his track record is sound.

Tobias can be a surprisingly low basketball IQ player sometimes. It’s feels like his instincts are just consistently wrong.

For all Embiid issues with passing Tobias is worse, guy cannot do a pass that is not to a guy in front of him

[76ciology]

3pts, 4pts, 5pts and 2pts. Sixers players outside Maxey and Embiid.

[DCasey91]

I disagree. His handles are tight though

You don’t think it’s top 5? Lillard/Curry/Luka/Paul

Maxey can def be in the convo after that I like that it’s used for effectiveness rather than just for flash.

Lol Maxey our guy but Absolutely not. Have you watched those guys really.

Yes as I said before, substance over flash, the other 4 have plenty of substance and so does Maxey.

Parker was my blueprint for Maxey and they share a lot of similarities imo Maxey is the better range shooter but both have sick handles and lightning quick

[Sixersftw]

that was some sort of last possession

The Tsunami Papi experience.

So who is most likely to get 50, Jojo or Maxey?

If your a betting man, make some money lol

[DCasey91]

Halftime. We are playing well but we are playing too much into the Pacers game style. If we don’t be careful they can drop 40 in a quarter

Keep it boring we can score on them anytime we want

Until I see Maxey keep the ball alive for a whole possession with multiple defenders coming at him and him being able to counter repeatedly. Than I can not put him with those guys. He has gotten better but he is not there yet.

[ExplosionsInDaSky]

It's a track meet! Indy can't defend a corpse. If we can keep from going cold in the 2nd half we should be good. Then again this one could get pretty tight. My God Haliburton is talented.

Embiid. He's going to get an easy 10-15 points from the foul line in the second half.

Well Dana Barros and Willie Burton did it.

[ExplosionsInDaSky]

I just watched our first half highlights with the sound down while a song by the band Kiss called I was made for loving you played. It was awesome!

[Covi_Marsh]

Dude has a top 5 handle in the league that doesn’t get talked about enough. That was the first thing I saw that was elite of elite in his rookie year, super quick, tight he just doesn’t get stripped

Also helps he might be the straight quickest in the league. Fukn lightning fast.

I disagree. His handles are tight though

Kyrie Curry Paul Luka Morant Poole KD off top my head. You’re not going to get top 5 accolades for having tight handles lol. You have to actually be able to iso and make people look silly guarding you. Using your speed to blow past ppl and stepbacks to create space isn’t exactly high ball handling skills.
