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.

Doc Rivers is a basketball terrorist

It's partially coaching but I think Embiid has also just improved a lot as a passer and is making better reads this season

He's one of those guys who adds something to his game every couple of seasons and I'm sure he knew this offseason that passing out of doubles/defensive "swarms" was his biggest area he can work on

I think Embiid always had the passing it’s just that rivers ran the worst offenses imaginable. Literally the Tyron Lue meme “give LeBron ball” but with Embiid.

I swore when watching Embiid under that offense he’d get doubled and yet still have no options to pass too.
