Embiid was a flying missile...right into Reddick
The 4th quarter alone is reason not to write Butler off too quickly.
I guess Jimmy forced Brett's hand when he pretty much told him they needed to start implementing it more....Involving Jo in the PnR shouldve been a no-brainer from jump but now I think Brett is beginning to see why.
Lopez got slaughtered all afternoo behind 2-5/1-5 PnR with Jo/Jimmy and Jo/Tobias.
Even when it doesnt directly result in a hoop it forces the defense to break down + makes the DHO with Redick that much more convincing and harder to predict.
East Playoffs is anyone's guess this year.
Toronto struggles vs Milwaukee, Milwaukee struggles vs Sixers, Sixers struggle vs Celtics and Celtics struggle vs Toronto.
We last played the Bucks when Covington was a Sixer.milwaukee punished us the first time around and barely loss this game. I would not say they struggle against us. i would say we struggle with all the teams you listed.
we are 2-6 against toronto boston and milwaukee.
We last played the Bucks when Covington was a Sixer.
We last played Toronto before the Tobias trade.
We last played Boston a whopping 6 days after the Tobias trade and got burned by a Kyrie gamewinner.
I wouldnt be surprised to see us go out in the 2nd round with how competitive the conference is this year but this team will be a totally different beast than it was in early Feb (shocker I know).
