next play is a terrible pass attempt to pitts, bijan never looked at. 3rd and 5 now.
3rd and 5, they again never look at bijan, penix throws into double coverage looking for putts, drive over.
bijan’s one touch: 11 yards after getting hit in the backfield
every single other play combined: 5 yards
his first carry of the 2H he gets hit in the backfield, shakes it off, jukes a defender, and gets an 11 yard run. very next play is a handoff to allgeier.
just looked it up, and cmc averages more than 25 touches per game, while bijan gets <20. that’s criminal. you have to be immensely moronic or straight up trying to get fired to have a 3-5 record with bijan robinson playing a part time role on your team.
he should currently be a 5x mvp. the embiid mvp was an absolute joke, and the sga was even more voter fatigue. absolutely nobody believes that sga is better than jokic, and considering what each of them had to work with last year it’s pretty damn hard to argue that sga had the better season. he’s wilt. he’s so obscenely good that people have to find reasons to act like he’s not.
they keep taking pull-up threes when they need to move the ball and find a catch-and-shoot. arkie will have one more chance, down three with 4 seconds left.
