The Lakers have waved the white flag with 8 minutes to go in the 4th so it looks like Joel Embiid is also done for the night. He finished with 30 pts on 9-15 shooting (2-3 from 3, 10-12 FTs), 11 rebs, 11 asts, 1 stl and 1 blk in just 3 quarters against the Lakers.
if you would’ve told me embiid would get 11 assists in a single game this time last year i never would’ve believed it.
His growth as a passer is astounding. 6.6apg on the season.
I like seeing him sort of command the offence out there instead of being a finisher and only really passing out of doubles. guarding him becomes a completely different game.
This is the first season since butler that I’m looking at the Sixers roster and thinking that the Celtics and bucks have competition
never doubt our ability to flounder when the lights are brightest. this is definitely the most hopeful i’ve been in years, but im still skeptical abt the playoffs just bc of how many disappointments the past few years have brought
I’m pretty sure this is the 4th time in the Sixers 12 wins where Embiid got to rest the entire 4th Quarter. And 2 of those times, he was 1 assist from a Triple Double through 3 Quarters.
