No Surrender in Denver. The Joker vs. The Process.
Joel and Jokic spar at The Jar in the duel of the dynamical duo.
But, then, does 76ers’ 70-point interstellar superstar Joel Embiid show up for the showcase showdown Saturday afternoon (with a 3:30 blastoff) against Nikola Jokic, who recently was told he is the No. 1 player in the world … by Embiid?
Apparently Embiid will play in Denver for the first time since Nov. 8, 2019, and for only the third game in his career. He might be a late scratch again, however. Embiid has been injured, inactive and incognito before.
Let us give a warm welcome to the NBA’s defending regular-season Most Valuable Player trophy recipient. He certainly will be serenaded by the “MVP” chants of the SRO crowd at the arena directed at the league’s defending Finals MVP and back-to-back regular-season MVP in 2021-22.
Who will win this season?
Embiid currently is first in the chase again. And Jokic is second again.”
