We're way deeper than Boston.

Maxey is getting undisciplined in defense... a lot

2nd time Embiid got matched up on Holiday. Boston has a weird defense.

I'd rather let the shell of Porzingis shoot than have Tatum and Brown in the lane w/ no Embiid.
They say an analytics man doesn't have a heart, but I ran the numbers and nothing can be further from the truth - Sam Hinkie probably

Great recognition there by Maxey throwing the ball the Joel as soon as he saw the missmatch

Why is no one getting back on defense? They obviously are going to push the ball with Embiid on the floor .

I actually think Jrue guarding Embiid is kinda brilliant. It gets us out of our offense mismatch hunting & is perfect for switching PnR.
I would actually ignore it & make Porzingis guard the PnR anyway.

One thing is for sure: Holiday can defend Embiid better than Porzingis.

Jrue on Jo worked the 2nd time. Baited Jo into dribble drive from the 3PT line ending in a bad pass.
If that's the matchup, need to get it to Embiid near the basket like the first time.

This one is good experience. Better than being defended by Mike Muscala

Melton should be benched until he finds his shot.
