On March 8, Beijing time, the 76ers won 121-106 in the game against the Bulls at home, after this game the 76ers are already 40 wins and 24 losses, and it should be noted that in the game that Harden can play, the 76ers have been a 5-game winning record, which is enough to prove the improvement brought by Harden's joining for the 76ers.
And against the Bulls, Joel Embiid was undoubtedly the best performer, scoring 43 points, 14 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, 3 blocks and +14 plus-minus on 15-of-27 shooting in 36 minutes.
As for James Harden, he scored just 16 points on 5-of-15 shooting after playing 38 minutes, but Harden was able to pick up eight rebounds and deliver up to 14 assists.
In contrast, the two biggest superstars, rising star Teres Maxi, is still the player who can get a lot of play opportunities around Harden and Embiid. Throughout the game, Teres Maxi played in 36 minutes and scored 17 points and 4 assists on 6-of-13 shooting. After Harden joined, Maxie can be said to be one of the best performers in this 76ers team, and Harden's organizational ability and passing really give Maxie more room to play on the offensive end.
At least this season so far, Tyrese-Maxi's outstanding performance has been recognized by the team and fans, and after a defensive quick attack against the Bulls and achieving a 2+1 round, the 76ers' official Twitter posted two consecutive messages praising Maxy:
There is also the possibility that Teresa Maxi will be named to the All-Star Team in the future season:
"I would say Teresa Maxi will have a 70 percent chance of becoming an All-Star next season."
Teres Maxie is still a very young player, but he has shown good talent prospects on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, at least in the current 76ers team, Maxy is the most performing player in the 76ers except Joel Embiid and James Harden. So in terms of the outlook on both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, The presence of Maxi also makes abandoning Simmons' future not so difficult for the 76ers to make.
