Holy ****

Tyrese Maxey 7 points in 10 seconds

Like TMac
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

Who knew Brunson would become a midget Super Star based on guile more than pure talent?

Embiid is perfectly fine letting Maxey take over completely. I mean, ride the hot hand, but give the man some help.

He's not right. Shouldn't even be on the floor. He's at least defending.

Yikes. Could be a flagrant. Embiid slapped down nowhere near the ball.

Brunson and co. remind me of IT and co. in 2016-17. They have a bit more talent but ultimately doing it on grit and hustle. They will fall against a more talented, more organized, healthier team.

Formal apologies to Tobias Harris are in order. Clutch FTs to extend it to 4. We might have a game 6, folks!
