Five years later, the 'Seven Sixers' recall the day 'everything was weird' and Tyrese Maxey began evolving into the franchise's leader

🤗 I was watching this game and I'm like 5 yrs old, Tyrese Maxey is literally running wild out there with only like 2 other players on the court 😂, it's crazy how he stepped up for his team in that situation. And what impresses me more is how Rivers coached him to develop into the player he is today 🤝, the way Harris, Embiid, and others helped keep him grounded I think was super important for Maxey's growth. He's such a humble superstar now too 💖, always talking about his blessings and not taking himself too seriously 👍
 
🤔 I'm not surprised Tyrese Maxey became an NBA superstar, but it's crazy how far he's come from that first start. It was like he needed that experience to develop his game. The way Danny Green spoke about giving Maxey the opportunity is true - Rivers did help him find his footing and keep him grounded amidst all the pressure. But 40-point outbursts? That's insane 🤯! His shot development is insane too, those ridiculous rim finishes are a sight to behold 🎯. What I'm not sure about though is how much of this success is due to the coaching he had vs his own hard work and talent 🤔. Still, the guy seems genuinely humble and grateful for all he's achieved, that's something to respect 😊.
 
omg Tyrese Maxey's journey from that crazy first start 5 yrs ago to now is just so inspiring 🤩💪 he's come so far and his growth as a player is amazing, but what's even more impressive is the humility & gratitude he shows towards those who've helped him along the way ❤️ especially Danny Green's words about keeping Maxey grounded are so true - it's all about staying true to yourself in the face of intense pressure 🙌
 
🤔 I mean, it's pretty impressive that Tyrese Maxey made it this far despite playing for a 7-man rotation during his first start 🔄. But let's not forget, he was already a talented player even before that game 😊. What's crazy is how much pressure there would've been on him if the team hadn't had to scramble like that 👀. It just goes to show how far the Sixers have come under Doc Rivers' coaching 💡.

I'm still not convinced about all this "development" hype 🤷‍♂️, though. I mean, Maxey's 14 separate 40-point outbursts are nice and all, but that's basically just a numbers game 🔢. What really matters is how he performs under pressure in the playoffs or against top-tier teams 💪.

And can we talk about how ridiculous it sounds to say someone like Maxey was "kept grounded" by his teammates 🤣? Like, come on, they're all pros here! They should be pushing each other to be their best selves, not coddling them through tough times 🤷‍♂️.
 
omg what can i even say? this kid tyrese maxey was literally thrown into the deep end 5 years ago and he managed to swim against all odds 🤯! i mean, who else can say they went from having to put in a 7-man rotation to becoming an NBA superstar in just 5 short years? it's wild how far he's come and still so humble too 😊. i love how dan green talked about rivers helping maxey stay true to himself, that's the kinda coaching we need more of in this league 💯! and can we talk about maxey's smile for a sec? it's literally the most beautiful thing 💕. he's got that effortless cool and it just radiates from him 🌞
 
man this Tyrese Maxey story is wild 😂 5 yrs ago he was on his own out there for Philly against a loaded Denver team, had to put up crazy numbers with no fans and a bunch of players out 🤯 I'm impressed he held it together as a rookie. The fact that he's now an NBA superstar averaging over 30 points a game is insane 🚀 but what's even crazier is how he kept himself grounded through all the pressure and struggled with being the only ball handler, big ups to Doc Rivers for helping him stay authentic 💯
