McDaniels looks bad too.

Probably kind of trying to be cautious with his back

Back up to 9pt lead because no one can defend as usual .

Niang is hitting tonight so that's a good thing. I mean...the whole as Niang goes, we go?

Maxey can do it in the small ball 5 out lineup. But that lineup is terrible defensively :noway:

Harden looks like a guy who isn't healthy and was rushed back.

Its annoys me that we have two 6'1 guards playing heavy mins that lack both shotcreation and playmaking.

If Embiid and Harden ain't healthy, why rush them back? it would be good for us to be 4th seed to avoid Celtics. I would honestly stop playing them altogether until Playoffs, maybe play only against Bucks and that's it.

I don't understand why Maxey doesn't do more DHO with Embiid like JJ. It's would be so easy for him.

DHO is a Brett Brown staple. Doc doesn't use it as much.

Maxey is not the quick and dynamic shooter Redick was.
