Just stop it. Us Sixers fans appreciate the new found bandwagon for Maxey, but don't make these outlandish claims. Embiid is our franchise and MVP. We don't win without him.

Unlucky has nothing to do with it. Any reasonable fan can see he hasn't played anywhere near his MVP regular season self when it matters.

Well, he plays larger than he is, which is the exact opposite of Embiid.

Ben Simmons, Kawhi Leonard, facial fractures, ankle injuries...... yeah some factors do play into playoff success...including luck

None of that excuses his shit play in the playoffs

Game 7 vs Boston this year he goes 5-18 and overall pathetic performance for a "MVP"

Embiid hasn't had a single good playoff series in his career and he's 30 years old :facepalm

Let's be honest. Embiid needs Maxey more than Maxey needs Embiid.

Well, he's been to like three game 7s in the semifinals the past five years and didn't win in any of them.

I’m hardly an embiid hater like a lot of trolls here but it’s hard not to notice the pattern of his dip in quality of play and impact come playoff time. Sixers can still get to the finals but he will need Maxey to go Jamal Murray mode in the playoffs

Embiid is so unlikeable, he brings it upon himself too with all that trolling and yapping he does...and then proceeds to cry after getting knocked out smh

Ultimately it doesn't matter since they are in the same team. The big question prior to the season is whether maxey could be effective as the primary ball handler. I think we have the answer.

Maxey is a legit top 5 point guard in the league right now

Philly are actually kinda likable now, you got Embiid,Maxey and a solid cast of nice 3+D role players like Bev,Batum,RoCo and Melton with Nurse who's a massive upgrade from Rivers imo

Maxey looks like he is gunning for the MVP tho.

Right now, Embiid is Shaq and Maxey is Kobe. Neither is as good as them but the comparison seems apt. An older, established MVP center and his young, hungry guard sidekick. As Mask implied, it's a good problem to have.

Don't worry I have no interest in rooting for the November champions.

Philly will be Philly come playoff time like always just they're a bit more likable this year

The team needs Embiid more atm. A better question can be asked if age and playing style is taken into account. The way Embiid plays he may not have more than 5 years in his prime. Maxey definitely seems to have more than that. So do you want 5 years from Embiid if you are a 6er fan or 10 from Maxey? I'd still go with Embiid I think, but he has to step up in the playoffs. Embiid playing well is a serious contender. A Maxey-type guard is nice to have but he is no MJ.

Exactly. And TBF Shaq was the more valuable player at the time. Same as the Philly scenario. And it's no slight to Maxey.

You don’t win with him either.

Maxey will never be 'that' guy', ever. He's a 3rd option at best and will be lucky to be the 2nd option on a title team. He's a good player, but he's not good enough to lead a team. Any sixer fan is delusional if they think he's anything better.
