    This guy is fucking insane. Shit is incredible to watch.

  2. MrBuckBuck

    He had 48 points against us last time… geez… averaging 49 PPG vs. the Wizards now.

  3. LocalParanoiac

    I was so set to comment that he’s averaging 48 against the Wizards this year, but then he scored 50. Damn..

  4. rockthenation

    But if you take away all the grifted FTs he only got 39

  5. RobbieRum

    That’s gotta be one of the best performances from the free throw line I’ve ever seen.

  6. Averaging 48 against the Wizards so far this year is a fun stat

  7. Phillyspecial6969

    People that say he isn’t fun to watch make me legitimately sad. He’s such a dominant offensive force, anyone saying this dude is a chore to watch just doesn’t like basketball

  8. fortghoul

    Gafford sees Embiid when he goes to sleep at night and wakes up in a cold sweat

  9. thephotobooths

    NBA discourse has gotten so toxic and reductive that people will always find a way to detract from this guy. It’s just a treat to sit on the couch and watch his game sometimes. Will statistically be one of the greatest scorers of all time, probably the greatest scorer on a per36 basis.

    Regardless of team allegiance or whatever just do yourself a favor and watch him play a full game once in a while. And yes, I feel the same way about Jokic.

  10. LittleFatMax

    We kinda needed all 50 of those points tonight too. No one else really played that well

  11. RealPrinceJay

    Somehow setting 50 points aside, bro is averaging 8apg over his last 9

    His passing has been insane

  12. sabakasabaka

    it’s funny to see nuggets flairs in here with the larry o’brien trophy and it’s just 100% hate lol. like even after your team reached the top you still feel the need to do this?

  13. yanansawelder

    Shout out to u/HailKyrie for saying he’s currently not top 3

  14. Sorry-Mushroom-8800

    It’s hilarious how Jokic wins a ring, has 2 MVPs and is on track for a third, is widely considered the best player in the league and nuggets fans still crawl out of their swamp to shit on an Embiid master class

  15. GOAT_Redditor

    Bro was hitting EVERY mid range shot down the stretch. Unreal

  16. T4hunderb0lt

    Reigning MVP type numbers right there. What a fucking beast.

  17. When_Angels_Cry

    Emfeasting on the Wizards. 19/28 is crazy from the field

  18. Euphoric_Luck_8126

    Damn 3 assists away from a 50 point triple double

  19. processenjoyer

    90% sixers fans in this thread lmao, never change r/nba

  20. Basic_Commercial_806

    Embiid’s in the middle of a top 5 all time scoring peak. 3 straight scoring titles insane

  21. Blizzard77

    I hate to hop on the Embiid love train, but seeing him outside of people’s top 5 lists before the season was insane to me. He’s clearly a top 3 player in the league.

  22. BigMik_PL

    76ers flairs thread only lets get this bread fellas

  23. this comment section is filled with nothing but sixers fans. typical /r/nba lol

  24. Moving_Under_Fire

    7 assists from a center is what separates him from the other elite centers.

  25. A_Chair_Bear

    I see this headline after every game against a star player lol

  26. mojoembiid

    Somehow not an exciting player for the casual NBA fan.

    Almost every flair is Sixers on a 50 point game where he had the smoothest touch.

    I just don’t even understand.

    I guess the degree of dominance? Plays your team and your guy gets embarrassed. And also he is troel?

    He gets the Lebron level of hate, without the love. Does his trolling really mean that much?

  27. jacobythefirst

    Wizards just CANNOT guard this man lol

    I mean they can’t guard in general but with a all time scorer like Embiid he just eats.

  28. Even if he scored 100 in this game, this thread would be more hate posts like it is right now.

  29. fimbres16

    Stars just love shitting on Gafford. Everytime Embiid plays him he goes crazy. Jokic sleep walks triple doubles on him and KD crossed him so hard he fell flat on his face.

  30. Disastrous-Ad2800

    good luck to the MVP voters…. Embid and Doncic are putting up 2K numbers while Jokic has kept Denver near the top of the league with an injury disrupted lineup..

    seriously, of the top of your head without thinking, name this seasons MVP, you couldn’t split those three guys…

  31. danopie96

    This is what happens when you have to play Embiid in the 4th quarter rather than him sit like he has against a few of the dregs of the league so far this season

  32. radical_findings_32

    Tuned in around half time.

    76ers are down 10

    Embiid comes in

    76ers are up by 1

    Ref missed an obvious call of a hit to the face, Embiid proceeds to mid range Washington to death for the next 25 minutes. He also had a one handed dream shake, one huge yam, 1 big 3 and 2 huge blocks.

    He is one of my top 3 players to watch in the NBA atm and has been for years. Haters are missing out.

    He absolutely deserved the MVP, he’s underrated because a lot of his MVP worthy games he’s ended the game halfway through the 3rd and sits out the rest which deflated his stats but he was the most valuable player to the 76ers with a bum coach. Which is kinda what the award is about. Joel was carrying Doc.

    I personally enjoy watching his defense. He has like an anti-gravity, even Tatum is scared to go at him.

    The only player I’ve seen not even tone it down from 100% going full pace at Embiid is Lebron.

    That’s why I think he’s one of the best players in the NBA. On both ends he is a problem.
