Secondly, itās obvious the playoff numbers favor Poole in every single way & he came off the bench which is even more laughable. Fuck Tyler Hero, this the real bench starter.
Do they though?
Maxey in the playoffs: 20.9 PPG, 3.9 AST, 3.5 REB, 48.4% FG, 37.7% 3PT, 94% FT
Poole in the playoffs: 17.0 PPG, 3.8 AST, 2.8 REB, 50.8% FG, 39.1% 3PT, 91.5% FT
Poole is a year older, with a year more experience in the NBA as well.

& as someone who use to defend Tobias & was one of his biggest supporters, trade him now while he has any trade value, his offensive output will only continue to go down from here, & even though he will be more efficient due to Harden, itās not 40 million a year worth of output. Get some 3 & D guys to replace him for a third of the price. Heās aging.
He's aging? He just turned 30 years old like a month ago lol. He's the same player he has always been, in what world is he showing signs of aging? Tobias has never relied on elite athleticism anyway. In fact he's better defensively than he has ever been in his career and had some of the best moments of his career in this recent playoff run. It was the first time in a long time where 76ers fans actually agreed on how well he was playing at a high level.
We get it, he's not worth his contract (a lot of guys aren't though rofl), but he's still a good player, especially as the fourth scoring option which is a luxury. Will his raw PPG go down? Certainly, he's playing with Embiid, Harden, and Maxey on a team with actual depth now. He's an expiring contract next season so moving him will be a lot easier if they decide to do so. He looked pretty damn good after the Harden acquisition last season though.
