Harden definitely helps him get off easier shots, but nah I think you’re giving him too much credit. Maxey has been balling all year, step back 3’s, pushing the pace on offense, etc. I’ll give you the aggression part. He’s more aggressive with Harden, but that’s just of virtue of not having to set the table all the time for everyone else. I saw a lot of games where he started off slow because he wanted to share the sugar and feed Embiid. He wouldn’t start being aggressive until the 3rd a lot of times. They need him to come out hot every game even if his shot is not falling. Sky’s the limit for him man.
Maxey's been balling and the skills have always been there but it's been come and go with his willingness to asset.

We've been gassing him for a minute, but nobody goes in the sixers thread.
He's the reason why i said nah to the Fox/CJ type deals for Simmons. He turned 21 last week and efficient as hell. This nikka refuses to turn the ball over as well.
Embiid is not a leader I've seen it time and time again when the going gets tough he gets pouty.a better leader than jojo*

Maxey carried this team to victory tonight.
