He even got picked 3rd. Man is just good at being top 3
The best #77 to ever play in the NBA
Nice….
If he doesn’t cook derrick white and jaylen brown im gonna be disappointed in him. He has as much talent as anyone in the series. I’m expecting big things out of him and maxey. Like both average over 30
You expect him to cook 3 great defenders???? Average 30 as a rookie??? My boy that is unreasonable lol
DUde he was 19 this Season, hes still a kid
He was a project too but somehow evolving fast, but hes at a big disadvantage and been playing with G Leaguers the whole year and Maxey, Embiid and PG havent been out there
Hes played most games on team..but he is built different and might cook them boys
Kobe was awful in first playoffs, but hes like most mature 19⁄20 year old ever so theres alot of reason to believe he can do it
He needs to get his balls checked if they’re always loose.
He puts his body on the line every knight, he’s a true warrior
Trade everybody and build around Edge
Been saying it from the start but we gonna have to keep Maxey cause friendship but he’s taking over PG anyway cause better passer and higher IQ. But we playing with nobodies all year and he still finding ways to win. The rare Dawg who’s gonna be a star, only a handful of Dawgs in the NBA.
Facts
I’m curious to see how good he is in 2 years and what they can do to build around him
The real issue is Maxey being a insane shot chucker with no real defense so he limits VJ option 1
Second VJ got option 1 he put up like best rookie games ever and cooked OKC with 0 help. Look who was on floor. VJ a natural leader but so is Maxey so it’s a issue
Lmao what are you on? Maxey is an insane shot chucker w no real defense? He’s only had one season with a fg% below 45%. He just averaged 28 ppg on 59% true shooting. He’s one of the fastest players in the league and strong, he might not be an elite defender like prime Jrue but he’s well above average.
VJ is great and I’m glad he’s in Philly but the ‘trade everyone and build around your first year player’ is such a reddit take lmao you don’t watch the 6ers VJ is straight up not a good enough ball handler to even consider trading away Maxey who fits like a glove next to him you should feel bad for pretending like you know what you’re talking about
The Process is still processing
Hopefully he’s gone soon but I been fighting with our fanboy fans for 7 years. Super talented bum but he’s got 1 chance this year cause Brother VJ. I’m giving Embiid his 1 and only chance. , knees are fine rested all year
Knees are fine, appendix not so much.
he was also 11th in MPG in the entire league (mostly because hes really good, just pointing out he played a ton)
Yeah it’s kind of crazy how much he’s played.
And he plays really hard too, with a lot of effort.
he was also 11th in MPG in the entire league (mostly because hes really good, just pointing out he played a ton) Nick Nurse is a terrorist
FTFY
He a really exciting player. I think his rookie season was a lot closer to Flag and Kon then to Dylan Harper
They can give out that fake little Rookie award
VJ will take Finals MVP
Dawgs win, heart, hustle motor, athletic ability, defense. All these Regular Season bums like DeMar DeRozan dont mean a literally thing when it comes to winning
Finese dont win the playoffs boys
Hell yeah, same in my 2k save
Enjoy the first round exit
Could be worse. VJ was winning with Cam Payne and Marjon bumcamp
Cooper Flagg lost 16 out of 18 games during his “stats. Stat padded like Ace
Kon too slow to keep in at end of games when it’s winning time and should be eliminated already if NBA wasn’t way it is.
Levels to this
I guess finesse players like Curry and Jokic have never won.
Both are Tough
Curry is tough just cause he pretty dont mean hes not TOUGH
Jokic is tough but finese but hes still tough
they are the only ones, all these bum Stats dont mean literally anything. its all BS.
Paolo averages 25..i seen my guy Maxey dropping 30 and misses 25 shots…getting stats dont mean ANYTHING now
not too much on the future number 10 points scored player
