est Yeah personally I am fully braced for a potential Miami series win. The Cs I know disappeared around the same time as Arsenal. Very confused about some of Mazzulla's decision making now too. However, some signs of a turnaround, with the best features of this team slowly forming back into habit. The double big lineup with Horford and Williams III was a good mid-series adjustment. Team should be wiser in cutting down turnovers, especially Brogdon. C's need to defend the corner threes much better in the next series than they did in this one. It won't be Tucker and Melton hitting those but a level above that I think.
I am left feeling sorry for the Sixers. If anything I feel they're collecting Spursy records in the post-season. I gained respect for Embiid's paint defence in this series. Countless blocks, great feet, coordination and reads. Adebayo (and Davis should it come it) are good at that too, so it won't get easier starting Wednesday.
Meatwad I really don't gravitate to cocky and flashy athletes (I consider Ja to be among them) but theres something about Ja thats making me route for him right now. A growth arc of maturity would be good to witness.
