The issue we’ve had is twofold: Joel injuries and minutes in which Joel isn’t in the game.
I trust Maxey to take care of the latter, just gotta pray about the former.

One game at a time.
I’ll aim for not having an embarrassing second round exit before I get the banners ready.

To go just a little glass half empty, we need someone else to threaten to get 25 a game more often. We know it’s not going to be Tobi, but when a team blitzes Maxey or doubles/triples Embiid, we need someone else to step in and fill the cracks. I’m happy they’re so simpatico, but everyone else has to stay sharp as well.

You always need some luck and to stay healthy, but this team is a legit contender, as constructed, in my opinion. I don’t think they need to make a big move and I don’t want to mess with chemistry.

Need more offense and guys that can get buckets. This ain’t a winning formula right now. Length, extra body in the paint and we’re likely cooked.
Teams will let our role players shoot and overplay Maxey / Embiid and we likely lose in a 7 game series.

No one from this fanbase likes to get too excited given how often we’re let down. Personally I’m just enjoying the ride. Stay in the moment.

If this was NBA Jam yeah. How’s our rebounding compared to the other top teams?

Embiid and Tobias are #4.

Oh, it’s not even a question at this point. This team can absolutely go all the way, but nearly everyone is afraid to say it. And as a lifelong Philly sports fan, I don’t blame them.

Can they? Sure. Is it likely? As currently constructed, no.
Boston is still a bad matchup. It’s a wing league and they have better ones. They also are a tough matchup for Maxey

Luka and Kyrie?

They are good at basketball.

I’d say pay attention to the big broadcast games or games that matter to see how they turn up to get a better indication for playoffs

They need one more piece.. IMO.. same as it always was.

We need to do it against the Celtics. So far, we haven’t & Horford has resumed his Embiid kryptonite role.
