But if embiid can carry over his 4th quarter play from tonight into this series the sixers shouldn’t lose more than 2 games. With embiid this season the sixers are 32-8 .800 win% equivalent to a 66 win season. Even a hobbled Embiid is still comfortably the best player in this series. Not to mention Maxey is every bit as good as Brunson. Sixers in 6.
No he’s not lol
Brunson lead his team to the 2 seed without his second best player for a third of the season. Maxey was 6 games below 500 when without Embiid.
Brunson’s a borderline top 10 player, Maxey isn’t even cracking the top 20 in the league.
Maxey is a top 15 player, Embiid is the best player in the league during the regular season. He's knocking off the rust, and the Sixers won't be facing zone in this round. Embiid's issue is conditioning, he should be back to full speed by game 2. Game 1 will be a battle...
Embiid was not injured he was just laboring from conditioning.
