  1. This depends. From an inbound with like 2 seconds left the ball should be going to PG. Hes quicker than Embiid and a better shooter from 3pt range with a quicker release.

    But if there’s 10 seconds left and they can get the ball to Embiid in the post, probably him. However teams will just send a double immediately and make a role player kill them.

    You rarely see big men make the final shots, even the ones who are decent or great shooters like KG/Embiid/Hakeem/Jokic/Porzingis etc. They aren’t really mobile enough to get to their spot quickly.

  2. Ottwayyy

    Can’t wait for Embiid to be average in the playoffs and then blame his team for the 6th year in row.

  3. If Nurse calls timeout and draws up a play*, then it can be anyone taking the final shot.

    If no timeout, i would trust the ball with Maxey to make the decision.

    Chet is lowkey hilarious. He’s the fun kind of troll I’m looking forward to for many years to come

  5. onlyahobochangba

    It is 100% Embiid and it’s insane that PG even thinks this is a hard question.

  6. everything_raptors

    Starting off with let me f up your chemistry is hilarious..

  7. Gas-Substantial

    So NBA doesn’t test for weed obviously.

  8. confuddly

    I always hate the “last shot” mentality. Teams should run an action, which would result in a player being open, player catching the ball with a head of steam, or a player having a mismatch

    And then the results of that action determines who gets the ball

    Pg hasn’t been that guy in atleast 5 seasons ,crazy he thinks he should get that shot over embiid

  10. jgroove_LA

    …but, PG, you said you didn’t want to take the shot in LA…you wanted to be no. 2 and then played like no. 3

  11. Puzzled_Lurker_1074

    I think the answer is: it’s situational. It depends on who’s guarding who and if Maxey is open. How much time is left also plays a factor as someone else commented. Nice question though lmaoooo

  12. BabaBrody

    It’s Maxey then PG then Embiid.

    Late game Embiid is tired and getting swarmed.

    PG can hit the shot but has never been the high pressure guy.

    Maxey has the best range and seemingly the most clutch gene at this point.

  13. ZealousidealPast0

    Thats a PR answer. Chet a funny cat

  14. LordJxnkulous

    Other superstars is crazy 😂😂😂

  15. RealPrinceJay

    Should be Maxey tbh, especially if you need a 3

  16. makashiII_93

    Chet knew what he was doing.

    And we all know Embiid or Maxey are taking that shot. Not PG-Beta 13.

  17. PensiveinNJ

    lmao, Chet’s psychological warfare is on point.

  18. seedeegeecdg

    Tyrese Maxey is the correct answer here.

  19. I can’t wait for this team to inevitably blow up, the way the sixers do every year

  20. amlanding20

    “Imma keep fucking up the chemistry…(asks follow up)”

    😂😂 I love Chet

  21. strillanitis

    What the fuck is up with Chet’s whole physique?

    This is beyond even Durant, how does he move his bones without an ounce of muscle? Is he controlled by marionette wires?

  22. byebyehackysmacky

    Chet always seems stoned during his interviews lol

  23. DominoNo-

    Maybe a hot take, but for a show with a lot of basketball players, maybe they should get bigger chairs?

  24. FireFoxQuattro

    Mf really is Abraham Lincoln if he grew up in the hood lol

  25. bmanley620

    Both will probably be injured so Maxey will take it anyway

  26. ShaedonSharpeMVP_

    Chet forgot what he looks like and is just acting a different type of way lmao. Slay queen. Couldn’t be me, but go ahead and slay.

  27. SamMo76917

    What’s hilarious is that both guys have a record for not showing up in the playoffs, so preferably neither. My attitude towards both is “Thεy båth ÅRΣNŦ CLᘮTCH ånd åre FRÅUDᘮLΣNŦ plåyers”, but hey, maybe im biased

  28. SoManyUsesForAName

    Chet looks like if you told an AI program to make a Machine Gun Kelly Slender Man.

  29. DEEZLE13

    Nurse gonna have Embiid run the same play he had Kawhi run at the buzzer

  30. RoastDaMostToast

    Should’ve started by asking him or Maxey

  31. Hiwo_Rldiq_Uit

    Chet sees his inevitable future as 2030s AJ Hawk.

  32. RhinoBugs

    Nice to see Luka’s sons having a good time!
