mr_hunt Posted April 26 Author Share Posted April 26 1 minute ago, e-a-g-l-e-s eagles! said: Credit to Joel Embiid. We give him a lot of crap for lack of nba mvp level production in the playoffs. But this series he’s been fantastic besides the second half in game 1 where he was clearly not right. He’s averaging for the series 37.7 ppg, 8.7 rebounds and 5.3 asts. And shooting 47%. he was a beast tonight. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously they don’t think melton is healthy enough to play even with him active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khani1 Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 If Robinson is out next game, that would be huge. With him out and Farteinstein in foul trouble, we won the glass tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With him being out, the game plan should be to attack Farteinstein early and get him in foul trouble if possible. We can win the boards battle again and tie the series.

Khani1 Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 If we could somehow get a 15 point lead next game sometime in the second half, maybe Council can get a few minutes. He can defend and rebound. He plays with a lot of energy. He can’t shoot but neither can Tobi anymore. I wonder how his d would be on Brunson. Give Oubre and Batum a little break so they can hit some shots on offense.

If you are gonna play him it’s likely earlier in the game when he’s loose and not sitting on the bench for a long extended time so that you can see how he holds up. I’m on the fence if he even plays this series Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dude can impact the game without shooting. We just need a scenario where he can get on the court to show it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bench (and Buddy in particular) have not had much of an impact on the scoresheet. Other than Maxey and Embiid most haven't been a factor offensively. Oubre managed to get 15 points which was nice, but these guys need to help carry some of that scoring load as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Payne just now played and that was out of necessity to try to get something from a bench guy. Nurse played Martin Jr vs the Heat in a must win over Ricky.

That logic goes out the window starting and playing Tobi heavy minutes. Nurse is a smart guy. He can see Tobi blows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khani1 Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 These long breaks between the last two games is not only helpful for Joel, but also for Batum and Lowry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
