    Maxey trying to save Doc and Harden from choking.

    Maxey playing like the second best player in the series thus far (behind Embiid). If he keeps playing like this, the Sixers can win the east.

    Nah. They win one in Canada
    This is not looking like Atl/Miami
    or
    Golden State/Denver

    I wanna say Denver wins at least one but .. . Jocic is getting run off the floor

    Nah the raps are just overmatched. A bunch of role players on the floor. Atl and Denver have actual stars on their team that can carry them to a win

    Harden doesn't have to do much it seems
    Right now. . .. He is adequate being a decoy

    Will teams shift and focus on the "stop Maxey" defense . .. .
    That is when Harden will have to step up

    Kind of easy to imagine Kyrie locking up Harden in practice, honestly.

    It is insane to me that one year ago he looked nothing like this.

    Harden was a beast around the holidays this season. 2022 is just hard.

    Yea. Honestly because Harden has become too Finesse.
    He probably tried to out finesse Kyrie .. . using his dribbling etc.
    When the Reality is .. HE should have took his slight frame down to the post and bullied the **** out of him.
    He really should do that more often.

    When i see a game where Steph is going off. . or Kyrie is going off
    I think on the other end. . . some one should take them into the post and bully the **** out of them again and again
    I'm talking hard bumps and rough back downs

    Think he's getting by at a decent rate. Toronto "sells out" on defense by helping off the corner 3 shooters on both the strong and weak side and cuts off the driving lanes a lot
