At only 20 this kid buries his shots,his first step and array of offensive footwork just a marvel
There was one move on Embid off dribble sliding one foot forward almost a jab step into a step back three.

That move is ridiculous, even seems like it will causes heavy burden on the knee because it's against the vetor(he is supposed to swing back to right instead he go left)

We could be saying someday that he's got the best fall-away since Dirk. Who else in the league has a good fall-away?

SEPARATION-Tatum has elite separation that allows him to bury shots.
The skills taught by Hanlon since a young age and moves perfected by Bradley Beal and borrowed.
Jason is an example of dedication  and proper work habits from a young age by an elite trainer.
This was not an accident the work that Hanlon puts out is now seen across the league in young players.

I think the most impressive shot in that clip was the one over Bamba. I have no idea how he was able to get that one off.


Embiid had some nasty moves as well. You forget sometimes that he's 7 foot, 280 lbs sometimes.

He never seems to be in shape though. A bit scary for such a huge guy, with chronic leg issues. I think he can just play 28-30 mpg, with max effort. There is still a lot of unreached potential in him, not sure if he has the "software" to achieve it. Even though I like his game.

To rub it in further, did you notice in the video how they never showed a full view of Fultz shooting? At least he can dunk the ball, when no one tries to guard him. Reminds me of the reports of Yi Jianlian posting up a chair during pre-draft workouts.

DWade has a pretty sweet fadeaway game from the mid-range. Or at least, he did when he could get on the court

He smoked Philly with that fade in Game 2.  Too bad about the other 4.
