Nba got sone bad teams
Thissss..guy 👍👍👍

Point Center 💪 🔥
If Embiid played in last quarter.. What will he do?
2:24 that scream
Too bad he's stuck in trash Philly 😂
It's the Wizards don't get too excited. Wednesday when they play a real team and he gets bodied is going to show what a baby he is
Embiid is off to a much better start this season than previous seasons. Usually starts slow first 10 games
Keep going for another "robbed" mvp Jojo 💪 💪 💪 💪
2 questions:
1. How many fts?
2. Why doesnt he do this when it matters most, in the playoff?
Considering how much pass he gets, its everyone elses fault he doesnt get 48 in playoffs, never his…
And it was a blowout… Same as last year… Blowouts means 40+ for embiid.. but other players get trashed when they do it.
Smh.. so much hope, dude has talent of hakeem, but chokes, flops, and cant take care of hismelf, gets injured by Rolling on the floor
Trust the Process!
His mid is absolutely lethal.
