For the record, Chamberlain scored 50+ 113 times during his career. That is one of the few records that will never be broken.


Maxey is definitely going to score 50 again.


If not 50, he'll for sure be an all-star for a few years. He's legit.


I put $30 on him being the MIP back in Octobre. Gives me 350$ profit. Too bad I didnt put more.

Nor Kornet being triple-teamed for any other reason. :)

Not relevant of anything but he did score 54 points in a playoff game v. Atlanta.

It's Al by a good margin for me, but White was awesome. It was great to see our bench find their footing.

Banton and Svi looked pretty good. Banton could possibly steal some of Pritchard s playoff minutes when PP is being hunted.

Hauser is looking better and better. He'd be a real weapon if he shot more on the move. I'd like to see him get some opportunities to try it on low clock out of bounds plays.

Great win on the road shorthanded, even with Philly on a back to back, especially once you consider that a home-home back to back isn't that much of a disadvantage.

Coulda used KP.


I think missing JB and Horford starting both helped us. I'd love for KP to pay but for Horford to mirror Embiids minutes next time we pay Philly.

Remember when White first got here how hesitant he was with shooting the 3? I don't love the spamming of 3s of Joe's ball, but you gotta admit it has unlocked Derrick's next level and that 3>2.

This is the most advantage (+8) non-Tatum lineups have had against an opponent all season. It came against the team w/ the best record coming into the game. Pleasant surprise 'cos it's the game where we're missing two of the core six and two of our top 3 scorers.

Cs still a gross -6.3 per 100 possessions with Tatum sitting. That's BY FAR the lowest offcourt net rating on the team. Next lowest is Kristaps (+9.8).
