Tyrese Maxey had it all figured out last night against the Boston Celtics. Maxey thought he was going to buy an easy ticket from Boston and win in Philadelphia. Well, not so fast younger Maxey.
The game seemed to turn loose for Maxey in the waning stages after Boston withheld a small deficit. Maxey was dribbling, penetrating, and losing his sanity all at the same time.
Maxey is the Philadelphia 76ers best player for a reason and other than LeBron James, he and VJ Edgecomb play clutch. This paradigm has shifted quickly without Embiid in the lineup.
Embiid had a vasectomy done just weeks prior to the NBA Playoffs and Maxey has proved his point. He emerges from the tunnel a leader and leaves proud as a student willing to learn every time Maxey faints or turns a good curve.
He will learn under not one process. He will learn from his failures and rise up like the rest of Philadelphia and feel rejuvenated for the next test in which is no easy task.
