Embiid hasn't been great dealing with Trae in PnR, but dude is coming off an injury. I don't expect him to be coming up showing high all that much.

Even in those plays with Ben Trae got a easy floater and still had a wide open corner 3 if he wanted. 

Obvi Ben and Thybulle would do better but the problem is Embiid playing drop, even to the level drop, every play. That one you linked, Trae got right by him but decided to foul bait and didn't get the call. I would still play Tisse more because he would also be way better in help too. 

See right there. A non Embiid guarding of the PnR. They hard hedge and recover, leads to a blocked shot at the rim.

Donvan Mitchell got a similar foul call in some game against MEM.
He ran up the back of the defender - and went to the line as if the defender actually fouled him. Not sure what the NBA's up to there.

There have been so many weird tick-tack fouls all post season, especially on 3 pointers.

Obviously Trae is gonna win a foot race to the basket most of the time against Embiid, but he recovered well enough.

Here is one of him recovering and blocking it cleanly.

Yeah and his closeouts are crazy. He covers ground quick and can get in great contests.
