He still averaged like 26 5 and 5
Dre was a 7 ppg scrub in that series. We'd go apepoop if the voters gave Thybulle the Finals MVP over Embiid lol.

Agree. We just have to be selective and not overload him, which we can given our collective scoring system. It’s not like we’re gonna give him the ball and let him the offense like he’s CP3 or Harden. He’s a lot like Tony Parker.
Sometimes its maxey, sometimes its korkmaz, sometimes its seth, sometimes its tobi, sometimes its milton, a lot of times its Biid. Key is being smart on the frequency, the match-up, the possession and on the situation

Maxey has less talent and physical gifts than Fultz and Simmons and yet he quite possibly will be more than either one of them will be to the 76ers, especially come playoff time (I predict next year). Crazy !!!
It's like when Andre Agassi broke up with Brook Shields and people were like damn she is beautiful. Then he hooked up with Steffi Graf and people were like What? And yet by all accounts they are extremely happy and thriving. (For those of you that don't know it's tennis).

We got Embiid for large sample size of ISO possessions and some of our guys like Maxey, Tobi and maybe Kork can do it on small sample size of ISO situations, while we have multiple guys (maxey, seth, Kork, Tobi and shake) who can run PnR which you can run on crunch time situations.
Our offense has never been this well prepared, on paper, on crunch time situations.
When it comes to offense, I really think our blueprint should be more like the Spurs and we’re building something very similar. A very reliable go to guy and collective scoring surrounding him.
