    All Philly needs to do is get this LeBron guy to have maximum points for the whole game. It’s like exodia, he is the missing piece lol

      I wouldn’t dismiss this possibility. LeBron started the year talking up the Lakers being AD’s team. Opting out and going to Philly with his new business partner would give him a great shot at another ring.

    24/34.1 mpg are I the 1st and 3rd quarters so it makes sense Embiid is highest for those quarters. Is there anyone else who does a full 1st and 3rd quarter?

    Lebron does not try in the first it’s funny to see at times. He’ll shoot like 1-2 threes or something and maybe a random middy on the wing but that’s like it from a scoring pov

    Very interesting rotations from Nurse to basically play Embiid the entire 1st and 3rd quarter. Maxey is good enough to carry in the 4th so a lot of times Embiid just sits out the entire 4th lol.

    If you told me this was the rotation before the season started I’d be very skeptical but this is somehow pretty genius. It should get Embiid into top conditioning for the playoffs while not playing him too many minutes.

    Makes sense that the guy that schemes against Embiid the best also knows how to use him the best lol.
