NBA opening day is here, and the Sixers walked into Madison Square Garden on the Knicks’ ring night and won. Tyrese Maxey led the way with 28, Jaylen Brown and LeBron James filled the stat sheet in their debuts, and an 11-0 run closed the third quarter. John Browner says Joel Embiid looked in the way and needs to live on the low block; Tim Parker joins to argue Maxey is being built as the guy, and they go a second round on whether Embiid should be forced into the post now or saved for April. Plus the Celtics blow a 22-point lead in Detroit despite Paul George’s 38-point debut, and John and Grant disagree on Jayson Tatum’s 6-for-23, 11-assist night. Then OKC goes into San Antonio and beats the Spurs by 12 in a rematch of last year’s conference finals. Victor Wembanyama misses his first 12 shots, and Beav joins with John to pitch the moves San Antonio should make — including a Draymond Green idea Grant isn’t sure fits.
