I wasn't complaining, it's an ability to get FTs.

Look at how Brunson seals his defender on his back so he can get contact. Maxey goes straight.

Maxey needs to learn the art of the grift from Lowry like he learned the stepback from Harden

Let's be honest, we thought we had a chance because Brunson wasn't even trying first two games.

The good thing about this performance by Embiid is we dont have to worry about the Knicks being interested with him.
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

Robinson is probably the best rebounder in the league, Bamba is likely the worst for his size. We already have issues with rebounds, no thanks

Brunson is a level higher as far shot creation. He has counters that Maxey can't even think on. Maxeys advantage is his speed.

Brunson is a much better floor general. Brunson is the better player right now but he is several years older he should be. Also better defender and waaay better rebounder.

Brunson is slow for a guard. You can tell he has had to counter all his life because of his lack of size and speed. I think Maxey has gotten by on speed that's why he is just now starting to add to his .

Look i can understand that Brunson is a better player right now, but no way he's a better defender.

Maxey needs to use his monstars power by learning Brunson’s moves this summer.

He was trying . He just figured out that the way the sixers were playing him he could take his time and draw fouls. The same way Embiid does. So now that he has figured that out the sixers can not cover him as aggressively.
