If Hartenstein or Mitch are in the game, Embiid has zero reason to venture outside. Miami could do it with Kevin Love. This appears to be a much better matchup for Joel defensively.sol537 wrote:Nurse will put Oubre and Batum on Brunson all game with constant help coming from all sides.

We should also put Embiid on all pick and rolls and hand offs because he may not want to contest threes from DDV and Brunson off the curls…. And if he does run out, then we have iHart on the roll to find shooters

I expect a lot of drop coverage by Embiid... but then I also expect Brunson and DDV to get plenty of open three's off the pick / hand-off plays because their defenders won't always be able to get over the top of iHart/Mitch to properly contest.
Should be a good series but I'm going with Knicks in 6 or 7.
