Khani1 Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Who still thinks Harden looks washed? Raise your hands. He has burst to the rim, added a midrange step back, is hitting 3’s at almost 40% with high volume, and has been clutch in the 4th the last few games. 22/6/11 isn’t bad for a washed guy who plays way too many minutes a game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of it matters until the playoffs at this point for the Sixers. Both Embiid and Harden track records are prove me wrong when it matters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tobias has been super efficient this year. He added a left handed finish, he is way more aggressive, his isolation has been good and he has gotten better at catch and shoot 3’s. This version of Tobi I’m not trading for at least another year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn’t needed. Harden, Maxey, Melton and Milton are fine. We need a rebounder or a stretch 4. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazletonEagle Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Apparently Maxey went to Glen with the idea of coming off the bench. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The overall team defense is better with Melton starting. Maxey can cook off the bench against back ups. He can’t be fully utilized with Harden and Embiid on the court. He can still get 27-30 minutes a game and depending on the situation, he or Melton can finish the game with the starters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams also play a base defense during the regular season and don't really game plan. He is shooting the same % in catch and shoot as last year, 35.3% to 36.7% this year. Sixer fans just don't care anymore about the regular season, Harden especially needs to prove it when it matters, in the playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 I watched the end of the third/start of the last when I got to work. Did Maxey come off the bench?
