The Bucks beat Philadelphia 119-98 on the road, and Rivers Sr. finally returned to Philadelphia's home court after being fired. As a result, the fans in the stadium booed, and from a realistic point of view, Rivers Sr. was the culprit who could not go further in the past three seasons of Philadelphia, and his ability to change moves was too weak. was first overturned by the Hawks and missed the Eastern Conference Finals, and then Embiid and Harden were eliminated by the Heat and the Green Army. But after joining the Bucks, Rivers Sr. can be called a god of luck.
You don't have much to say in this game, Philadelphia without Embiid has lost Harden again. It's too hard to move around the Maxi single-core right now. The Bucks shot 54 from the field against Philadelphia4%, while Philadelphia has a measly 37 percent from the field1%。Except for Maxey, who can also live with the Bucks in a few moves, no one else can do it, and Harris, who was supposed to get the highest salary, should be responsible for leading the team, but his ability is limited. To be honest, if Harris were replaced with Harden, Philadelphia would have been able to make the playoffs in Embiid's absence, but now even if Embiid can come back, Philadelphia will not be able to make the playoffs.
At the beginning of today's game, the Bucks blew up Philadelphia and went on a 13-7 run. After that, he still didn't stop, and he hit the basket multiple times to give the Bucks a 14-point lead in the first quarter. In the second quarter, Portis and Alphabet made another effort, and the Bucks had already led by 21 points at halftime, and the big picture was basically decided. In the whole game, the Bucks scored 30 points, 12 rebounds and 9 assists on 10-of-17 shooting, Lillard had 24 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists, and Da Lopez had 11 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 5 blocks.
For Philadelphia, Maxey did his best with 24 points, 7 assists and 3 steals, Harris scored 8 points on 3-of-11 shooting, new recruit Hield scored 11 points on 4-of-13 shooting, and Oubre scored 12 points on 5-of-15 shooting. A team without Embiid is a belly, and this offseason Philadelphia needs to think about how to build a team around Embiid. And the renewal problem is annoying, so far Philadelphia has not renewed Maxi's contract.
Philadelphia management is taking a long-term view, and they want to keep Embiid to a contract and then keep the salary space flexible to grab Paul George from the Clippers. But they ignore Maxi's value, and Philadelphia might force him away with such contempt. Maxey has now hit an All-Star caliber stat and is more than capable of leaving Philadelphia for a max salary. So far this season, Maxey is averaging 25 minutes per game in 37 minutes8 points 38 plates 68 assists, 45% shooting, 37 three-point shooting8%。
In the absence of Diden by his side, Maxi has proven that he is not the likes of Poole, and he can let go of the picks alone. In February, Maxey scored 30 points in three games and 50 points in one game. Of course, when he has another star by his side, Maxi will also be better in scoring and efficiency. The most critical thing is that Maxey is only 23 years old, and when the Rockets traded Harden, they always wanted to get Maxey from Philadelphia, the reason is that the management knows its value, but unfortunately Philadelphia does not give Maxey.
This offseason, the Rockets have plenty of salary space to get Maxey, and as Harden has said in previous seasons, Maxey has a bright future, and he has indeed helped the outside world identify. Sometimes the draft pick doesn't tell the whole story, just like no one would have guessed that Alexander would become a superstar. Maxey now has Alexander's talent, and if he changes to a more suitable team, he may have a stronger explosion. The Rockets are a good fit for Maxey, and if Stone can grab Maxey in the offseason, it will be tantamount to the Thunder stealing Alexander's value from the Clippers. The Rockets now dream of getting a cornerstone, and Maxi is the most promising treasure for the Rockets on the market right now.
