Embiid and Joker are kryptonite for this team as currently constructed, FOR SURE.
I could make an argument that Powell is a better choice than Porzingis against Utah/Gobert, however, with as much spread pnr they run. Gobert will kill him on the glass for sure, but I'm not sure it's any worse than it would've been with KP in there, and their ability to switch with Powell probably helps prevent a lot of open shots in Utah's system. It's not like Gobert can post up Luka, DFS, whomever.

Yikes, good point.
