  1. Embiid should have 3 fouls min. Probably a couple flopping techs.

  2. SnarfSniffsStardust

    The difference in permitted physicality from one end to the other is crazy to me

    Disgusting basketball and even more disgusting reffing…

    God I can’t wait for the 10ppg playoff decline

  5. drinking_blunts

    Would rather watch the worst wolves team than have Embiid on my team. Most boring player in the league and it’s not close

  6. Don’t tell the refs what to do, they’re the supestars of the NBA !

  7. Professional-Fly-846

    Jokic out on the streets scratchin his neck askin nba “y’all got any of them fouls?”

  8. JimmyWasRight

    Sixers fans actually watch this for 82 games

    I feel bad for them

    I think the most frustrating thing about Embiid is the flopping has really made me dislike a guy that IS truly great. Like his footwork, strength, finesse, touch, midrange shotmaking, playmaking, DPOY caliber defense. He’s an elite, well-rounded player and essentially a prototypical center for the modern era.

    He’s truly a great player, but the way he’s embraced baiting and embellishing contact has made it really hard to enjoy watching him play.

  10. Embiid is a dominate player but its not fun watching him

    It is funny. Usually a player has to actually win a chip to get the hate Embiid does. But the players who haven’t are either dirty or foul merchants or both. See: CP3, Harden.

  12. I think Embiid would be almost universally loved even with the cocky attitude if he just wasn’t such a notorious foul merchant.
    The guy is built like Shaq on wheels but is always on the floor.

    Lol refs called more fouls against the sixers then the wolves all game… INTERESTING

  14. TechnicianUpstairs53

    The only mvp to never even make a conference final, the way he plays it’ll stay that way.

  15. dassiebzehntekomma

    Really just want to turn my brain off and enjoy the nba but shit like this makes it impossible.

    Get AI refs to turn off the bias

  16. preptimebatman

    This is why I will not rank him in the top 5 until he shows he can produce like he does in the playoffs.

    Bro is undoubtedly amazing but his game is almost entirely reliant on the whistle

  17. Lol69HaHaHa

    Where are the floping techs and how the hell does Embid not lead the league in them.

    “Why do sixers fans have a victim complex? Embiid doesn’t even get that much hate.”
    *Opens comments on a thread on a game where embiid had 51 points*

    Ever just sit back and think about how we are witnessing a truly generational whistle?

  20. 18 FT tho is insane. And those 18 FTs aren’t just points but they force opponent team in bonus/foul trouble force them to play soft defense and then you can score even easier

    I see what coach Finch meant
