Now do it in the playoffs
You can just come back here during the playoffs if you’re not interested in regular season discussion. We’ll get by without your thought provoking analysis
He has been, having a down year with efficiency but that was expected without harden getting him easy looks
Jo’s assists are up significantly. He had 9 tonight. He will have triple doubles when Oubre is back in the lineup.
I think players will start respecting Maxey more and sag off Embiid a bit more to give him more space to drive
No one really thinks of Embiid as an all-time great scorer (yet), but 3 straight scoring titles would place him in truly elite company
he is a great scorer, but I think for me the big thing is that he is not an all time great scorer in the playoffs
Embiid in the 2nd round averages 23.6 on 43/29/82 splits. Forget great, he isn't even a good scorer in the playoffs
People hate the truth
If Lebron, Durant, Curry, or Jokic averaged 23.6 on 43 from fg and 29 from 3 they'd be crucified by this sub
He also has the 3rd highest career PPG in NBA history currently.

Where is Fox? He is averaging like 30/game.
Embiid is definitely one of the best regular season scorers of all time
Ngl thought Jokic was higher but then I remembered he got kicked out a game early and had foul trouble for another
Career playoff ppg
Embiid: 24
KD: 29.4
Luka: 32.5
SGA: 15.1
Giannis: 26.6
Curry: 27
Jokic: 27.5
Tatum: 23.8
Edwards: 28.1
Maxey: 15.7
Not really fair to include SGA, since he hasn't had an actual playoff series, or Maxey since he wasn't a starter
Fox at 27.4. Obviously it was only 1 playoff series but still. If Sga and maxey are gonna be included so should Fox.
I take for granted how much Ant elevates in the playoffs, as a 20 and 21 year old too. Can't wait to see him when he's 25+ like most of the guys on this list.
free throw merchant 💪💪💪💪
Lamelo's first five games he averaged 14 and now he's the 12th leading scorer by ppg
Today's injury tanked his averages :(
We rlly can't have shit
Mad how sga is 4 when he had a sub 10 point game
im surprised tatum is even here to be honest.. we have multiple games where he gets 1 or 2 shots in the first quarter.. i dont think anyone else on this list has that problem. In our offensive system it seems like tatum has been the one to sacrifice his stats so far. He wont shoot at all in his first rotation, then he is first subbed out and comes back for like a minute at the end of the first with the bench.
Really wish we would ride tatums scoring to start games, sub him out at his regular time then let the Brown/KP two man game go to work.
