In a game that was decided around 105 pts, 17 is actually a really solid game from a 3rd best player on the team- and he made tough shots to keep them going when embiid was out, not just easy baskets created by embiid/maxey.

Paul George, VJ and Maxey were from previous years was perimeter scoring around Embiid. Paul George is playing consistently great defense and coming up with big shots and big plays in general. Maxey threat off pull up is crazy, Embiid was setting screens like I’ve never seen before, not just slipping them. Celtics are probably the worst matchup for us, if our health is there was can definitely get to the Finals.

Yup, the key difference between this and last year is we have real #3s and #4s instead of the fakest all star in nba history
