lmfao Relax kid, Poole has had a down season and has had a bad start to the playoffs. Ya'll have been a much healthier and stronger team this year so defenses are focusing on Poole a lot more than 4th-5th option Maxey. It goes Embiid, Harden, Tobias, THEN maybe Maxey.
We've had Curry out, we've had Wiggins out, and Poole has been asked a lot. He needs to step up to the moment but they are not in the same position.
Regardles, Last year Poole was >> so suck a dick lol
Bruh....did you just call Maxey a 4th or 5th option? And did you just say Tobias is over him? Holdupaminute wut
Maxey is without question the #3, and arguably #2 go-to scorer on the team. He averaged more FGA per game than Harden, and averaged 20.3 PPG to Harden's 21.0 PPG. Maxey dropped 20.3 PPG on 48% FG and 43.4% 3PT (top 5 in the NBA). Tobias isn't even in the convo, he's solidified as the 4th scoring option and it's not even a question lol. Tobias' sacrificed quite a bit of his scoring this season (just 15 PPG) because he's playing with three other 20+ PPG scorers, but saw his efficiency go up.
Also, I don't want to hear the sixers being more healthy as an excuse. Embiid missed 16 games, Harden missed 24 games, and Maxey missed 26 games.
Maxey > Poole
