Tyrese Maxey has been fantastic to begin the season and his performance could influence what Daryl Morey does at the deadline #Sixers sixerswire.usatoday.com/2023/12/16/str… via @SixersWire – 5:36 PM

Observations here from Sixers-Pistons last night, covering:
-Maxey on Embiid’s “scary” continued improvement
-Some positives defensively, albeit vs. cellar-dwelling opposition
-Morris’ hot shooting, second unit’s chemistry
