Maxey is being clutch

Re: Eastern Conference 1st Round Games Discussion Thread

Man got 5 fouls and y’all wanna take jumpers 🤨

Not sure why they aren't driving at Embiid. Either you foul him out or he's going to concede the basket to not foul out

Great Block by Embiid!

Re: Eastern Conference 1st Round Games Discussion Thread

Welcome to the 76ers offense lol. They do not cut or do a lot of off ball movement. That's how it's been last couple years. It would be nice, but it hasn't been an emphasis at all. Philly don't have a lot of athletes on the roster

It's a trip because I don't know if it's been coached into them, or if it's been because the 6ers haven't, but the Nets don't even seem concerned about someone going back door at all

Everyone is ball watching. Especially when Embiid has the rock. The hard double comes and the other 4 players just stand around the perimeter while being zoned up by the other 3 guys on the Nets. All it takes is one guy hard cutting to the rim to get them in scramble mode

I do remember that last year too. Thought they would have worked on that this year. Guess not lol

Did all that and still go down 3-0 lol hilarious

But hey man, at least they were scrappy, which is what folks wanted when we made those trades!

Bad blunder by Nets to lose this game

They definitely were. Nets were clearly the more physical team this game. They really made Embiid’s night beyond difficult

Nets are infuriating - just so many brain dead possessions. Dinwiddie, Royce…just so dumb. How Bridges doesn’t get the touches down the stretch is beyond me.

I don’t know what the hell Embiid just said

Re: Eastern Conference 1st Round Games Discussion Thread

Beyond ugly win, that felt like that should've been a loss. Maxey stepped up when he was needed. That Embiid block was clutch. But, this was a great PJ Tucker game. Those 8 rebounds and 4 assists were clutch.

The Claxton mess will always be dumb to me.

Grand scheme, he shouldn’t have gotten tossed for THAT but he should know he’s already been T’d up once and that he needs to not play with fire with these Officials, especially in a physical game like this was.

Would love to see Nets with a true PG. They're definitely a scrappy team, but not disciplined and need a vet to settle them down

I guess it might be a Doc thing lol. Just standing around and ball watching. Sixers offense is ISOs and spot up threes lol. They just don't have athletes on the wings though. When they had Matisse, they would mix in the occasional offball cut. Outside of Maxey and Melton, it's just McDaniels really. They could use McDaniels more in offball cuts, but it seemed like McDaniels rarely connects on the dunks he attempts lol
