  • Starters named: Embiid, VJ Edgecombe, Jaylen Brown and Dean Wade. The fifth starter is not stated. at 1:47
  • Turning point: with under two minutes left and the Sixers up 3, VJ Edgecombe grabbed an offensive rebound after a missed three. The ball went to Embiid, who passed to Jaylen Brown for a three that made it a 6-point lead and gave Embiid his 10th assist. at 3:31
  • Host prediction: Maxey and Jaylen Brown will be the season's biggest constants. VJ Edgecombe and Embiid will fluctuate depending on which other star plays. at 5:54
  • Host opinion: the team is immediately in sync. Edgecombe/Maxey and Maxey/Embiid haven't missed a beat (names), and Brown fits as if he had already been practicing with the team. at 10:19

  • Jaylen Brown is now on the 76ers. The hosts name the Sixers' top three as Maxey, Brown and LeBron. at 22:38

The host says a healthy Dean Wade would help that approach and worries more about Embiid's offense slowing the team down.
