The Lakers have waved the white flag with 8 minutes to go in the 4th so it looks like Joel Embiid is also done for the night. He finished with 30 pts on 9-15 shooting (2-3 from 3, 10-12 FTs), 11 rebs, 11 asts, 1 stl and 1 blk in just 3 quarters against the Lakers.

His growth as a passer is astounding. 6.6apg on the season.

I like seeing him sort of command the offence out there instead of being a finisher and only really passing out of doubles. guarding him becomes a completely different game.

This is the first season since butler that I'm looking at the Sixers roster and thinking that the Celtics and bucks have competition

Those idiots lucking into Maxley with the 20th pick is the biggest reason.

never doubt our ability to flounder when the lights are brightest. this is definitely the most hopeful i’ve been in years, but im still skeptical abt the playoffs just bc of how many disappointments the past few years have brought

Just remember it's an iron law of Philadelphia sports that the team has to lose in the most depressing, gut-wrenching, agonizing manner possible

this is the first year we have a competent coach. Barring injuries, this will be the first post-season where we're not going into with a handicap

Sixers also have continuity on their side while the other top teams have made major retools. They look great on paper and early on but it's hard to say what'll happen in the playoffs.

He’s been an absolute offensive weapon this year
