Sixers Just Won Free Agency…

Sixers Just Won Free Agency…

this video is brought to you by bet us Sportsbook and casino let me remind you the Sixers had a 31-8 record with Joel embiid his impact had them as one of the most dominant teams in the league prior to him and others going down with injury very impressive considering they were very flawed as a team and they were also a new team coming together very quickly because you know the whole Harden requesting out caused a lot of trouble and a lot of time during the off season but with all that with MB they were pretty dominant without them it was a different story they fell apart because UB Batum Maxi everyone needed MB to play their best to live up to their potential a disturbing 16 and 27 record without Joel embiid this translated to the playoffs as well when embiid was on the bench versus the Knicks the Sixers got cooked but overall when they were healthy the Sixers were a top tier team especially their star five which only played 219 minutes together Tyrese Maxi Deany Melton Nick Batum Tobias Harris Joel embiid had A35 offensive rating and 101 defensive rating to put that in perspective both ratings outperformed the Boston Celtics starting five overall it was really just a Twan Army embiid averaged 33 10 and five Maxi average 29 and6 that duo was 95% of the reason they were so dominant in the regular or season and it was the only reason they took the Knicks to six games in the playoffs and as everyone saw when they lost that series the lack of depth really hampered them Tobias Harris putting up zero points in the elimination game 35-year-old Nick patum 38-year-old Kyle Lowry were counted on to play starter minutes every single night in the playoffs 29 minutes per game I love them both but they are bench pieces at this point in their career on serious Championship contenders I think the biggest upgrade for me is they have Five Guys offensively who are confident scorers from the three-point line and at the rim and can be effective drivers when attacking Closeouts and things like that when the defense is compromised collapsing on Joelle embiid and the reason that is so important to me is because embiid and Maxi are going to generate looks there is this whole playmaking and passing question mark for this team which makes sense they are not the best quick passing decision makers all the time but at the same time it’s overblown because Maxi a beats Twan game was arguably the best two-man game in the League last year and Joel embiid as a scorer just holding the ball in the post or in the mid post he’s going to attract attention he’s going to cause double teams and my goodness if Joel embiid and Paul George can develop a dribble handoff game like Tyrese Maxi and Joel embiid that’s just another thing that defenses got to game plan against it’s pretty funny to me that there’s this whole playmaking question mark whatever but the Sixers last year in the playoffs they attempted the second most threes per game only behind the Boston Celtics why did they do that because Joel embiid and Tyrese Maxi but let’s look at that starting five dethy Melton and when he was injured Kyle Lowry replaced him both can hit three-pointers but they are not threats to put any pressure on the rim Tobias Harris my goodness if he was contested as a driver it had no chance of going in and he was also a super reluctant three-point shooter so if you closed out hard most likely he wasn’t shooting and he can’t get by anyone because he doesn’t have a quick first step and then my guy Nick patum who I absolutely love who was key in the Sixers dominating because of his connective passing and he was a great shooter and he was great at moving to keep the flow offensively but again if he’s in a situation where he catches while Defender is closing out there is only one option the defense really has to worry about and it’s him shooting from the three-point line because he’s not driving to the rim effectively consistently at this point anymore in his NBA career but Paul George 70% at The Rim last season Kelly UB 70% at The Rim last season Caleb Martin had a career low 60% but in 2023 67 7% in 2022 73% my point is the Sixers in past seasons have had a lot of one trick ponies offensively Danny Green comes to mind he’s a shooter not much off the dribble PJ Tucker another one that comes to mind this starting five is the most diverse group in terms of attacking advantages there are more options than just shooting before the close out for a lot of these players who are next to Maxi and MB all three of them have some type of offensive bag and even the Lesser two Caleb Martin and Kelly UB both have that irrational confidence if they keep bricking they will keep shooting they will keep attacking which is badly needed from role players in six or land next to the trio of Paul George tyres Maxi and Joel embiid because teams are going to game plan to take the ball out of Joel embiid’s hands as much as possible same with maxi and also same as Paul George whoever the hot hand is meaning those two players left in the unit are going to get opportunities you have to have guys who are not afraid and although they are flawed at times Caleb Martin and Kelly UB they’re not perfect offensive players don’t get me wrong but the thing is they have that Fearless Gene that makes it possible for them to show up in big moments and hit big shots Sixers have plus 850 odds to win the championship on bet you as the sponsor of this video $25 to win 200 plus Count Me In click the link below make an

Tyrese Maxi’s track record is he will be taking another leap last year was his first season experiencing defenses game planning for him the majority of the Season he was the number one guy on The Scouting Report due to embiid getting hurt and last game of the season he struggled because the Knicks doubled him off every single screen with them beat on the court I expect him to make a self creation and playmaking leap the Sixers also couldn’t use him off ball flying around screens nearly as much as they like since they didn’t have a reliable Hub outside of beat and also they wanted to get him reps as that primary offensive ball handler so he’s ready to make another jump when it’s most important believe me this improves starting five and adding Paul George will allow him to be off the ball more which makes the Sixers even more dynamic as an offense and tougher to guard offensively now a lot of fans are worried about rebounding do I think the issues are solved I don’t know it remains to be seen but more importantly I think they improved defensively which should help they actually have real wings unlike last year it was either small guards like tyres Maxi Dany Melton Kyle Lowry or limited athleticism at the wing position and forward position like Tobias Harris buddy heeld and Nick patum adding more athletes will be huge they clearly are going Power Forward by committee as of now Caleb Martin Paul George and Kelly UB can switch onto positions to through four them improving their perimeter defense and having more weapons offensively should result in embiid exerting more effort into rebounding and also when embi is off the court they added Andre Drummond who is one of the best rebounding centers in all the basketball overall the team is just longer they’re not super duper tall at every position but they do have that wingspan and actual athleticism compared to last season Austin Krell tweeted Maxi 62 height with 68 wingspan UB 67 with 73 wingspan Paul George 68 with a 611 wingspan Caleb Martin 66 with a 610 wingspan Joel embiid 7 foot with a 75 wingspan let me know your thoughts Below in the comments section if you enjoyed at any point leave a like And
