Joel Embiid Is The GREATEST Scorer Of This Generation…



Joel Embiid Is The GREATEST Scorer Of This Generation…

Perfect perfect perfect holy smokes wow unbelievable history we just watched greatness we just witnessed history I don’t care about the past playoff failures I don’t care what else you have to say anything else tonight is irrelevant we just watched one of the best games in NBA history and I just got

Back from the game and I feel like the element of timing just capturing the natural emotion in the moment is so vital and you know I I was in there after the game with my guy Shawn Bernard shout out to him we were live appreciate everybody that came through I know we

Were a bit late cuz we were in there chatting it up with some people and their facial expressions their reactions were the same as ours holy crap what the heck did we just witness did that actually just happen did we just watch Joel embiid go for 17 708 and five 58%

From the field I don’t even have the numbers up I don’t have to look at any box score I just saw it with my own two eyes right in front of me one of the greatest performances ever it was the pure will it was just give me the rock

Get out of the way and oh by the way he was doing it against a guy who’s like 7 foot6 I think he’s 76 seeing him up close before the game right then and there he is insane his hands go below his knees his wingspan is out the damn

Building and he had a pretty good game in Victor wanyama and Joel embi decides to you know what let me go off for 70 70 a modern day Center who has you know just transitioned into one of the greatest scorers maybe ever in NBA history a guy who has literally

Revolutionized the game and the position 70 I still can’t believe what I just saw I am in all Sean and I were Star Struck that’s how this game left us I went there thinking I was going to see Joel and wembanyama go at it and Joel embiid had 70

Points he is the greatest scorer of this generation he is he is I know I’ll probably get Flack for that in the comments and people are going to bring up oh well he hasn’t got past second round there are dweebs already that I saw on Twitter cuz I wasn’t even on

Social media and there’s already dweebs in my comments saying oh well he can’t do it in the Conference Finals shut up come on what he just did is insane and you know Sean said it best on the post SCH game um they don’t get the credit

Until they do it till they win it and it was the same thing with Giannis with yic right they got that early criticism in their career they were still MVP players they still played at an exceptional level but once they get the ring all that other thing gets thrown under the

Bed all of it is just garbage at that point if Joel embiid gets a ring and I will add that Joel embiid has had more to deal with than any of these other superstars think about what he’s done he could have requested a trade multiple times like all these other guys no he

Stuck with it he fought through it and here he is playing his best ball after an MVP season he is playing 10 times better he has been unlocked by having an actual head coach and Nick nurse who makes adjustments and you know ensures that he improves certain areas of his

Game and he’s out here having an even better season I I just have never seen anything like it and when people say he’s having one of the most efficient seasons in NBA history I think there is validation to that I really do he was getting triple team tonight on many

Possessions and you had the no look pass down low right third quarter end of the third quarter into the fourth quarter he is literally going tip fortat every single Possession It it doesn’t matter give me the ball get out of the way that is his mindset and I know after after

The game I saw some quotes he said oh I wasn’t trying for it I wasn’t trying to force it yeah Daniel house hogging the ball by the way Daniel house needs to get out of the way and give Joel embiid The Rock he had 34 at half he had 59 in

Three quarters he had 59 that was his career high before in three quarters we thought it was amazing when he had 40 in 34 59 in three qus and he goes out there and house you know takes the Rock and goes and gets fou and misses free throws

The whole place is Boo and should they have done that probably not but they were frustrated everybody wanted to see Joel and shout out to Nick nurse for actually being able to read the room Doc Rivers would have sat Joel andb down for the rest of the game Nick nurse brought

Him back in the Spurs cut the lead and Joel goes out there and everybody knew what was at stake they were giving him the ball we wanted to see 70 and he just made it happen Joel embiid is the first NBA player in history with 70 points 18

Rebounds and five assists in a game first guy was 705 and five in NBA history he is a center and just dropped 70 points I don’t care who it was against I don’t care how it looked it doesn’t matter he went out there and every single time he wanted to score he

Did right back then Joel and B could not hit a mid-range to save his life we’re talking five years ago his mid-range is the most automatic shot in basketball he doesn’t miss how do you defend him you don’t you hope and pray and and Greg pop before the game is joking around because

The Spurs stink and he’s saying yeah we’re going to what do he say he’s going to bust his ass something Greg Greg you got to know better you just gave more fuel to the fire Joel and beid goes out there and he said after the game I

Didn’t even warm up Joel said I didn’t warm up and I can attest to that Joel didn’t warm up he came in at the end of warm-ups I think he took one practice shot and that was it this dude can do it every night here’s Joel embiid I don’t

Know why they didn’t give him a nice Sharpie he’s like writing in pencil over here with 70 he went into the locker room they gave him the silent treatment then they’re all spraying him with champagne this dude with what he’s had to go through he’s at 30 years old and

He’s had one of the craziest careers ever with everything he’s had to deal with and he just etched his name into NBA history I think they said he was the eighth uh guy to ever put up 70 eighth or ninth unreal and it comes on the 22 and 22e anniversary of Kobe Bryant

Dropping the 81 piece and he goes out there and sets a franchise record with 70 points he beats Wilt Chamberlain 69 point uh franchise record for the Sixers and Joel goes out there and drops 70 here’s the video I took from the game and just listen in man unreal as they’re

Giving them this Ovation comes in for 21 [Applause] J with a franchise record of 70 points unbelievable people are going nuts and you know what the craziest thing is Brett Brown was in attendance they showed the picture of them after the game I saw him on the court Brett Brown

Joel embiid feron roko you’re talking about guys that he actually played with as integral pieces of a lineup that’s what Joel has had to deal with throughout his career and this is the best shape he’s ever been in and I think Tyrese maxi sums it up best he says

Quote we cannot take this for granted not just as teammates not as an organization but as fans even if you’re not a fan of Philadelphia you are a fan of basketball you cannot take Joel embiid for granted man what he is doing right now is special and you know what

I’m going to go above and beyond that Tyrese Maxi if Joel embiid wins a ring he is one of the greatest 10 to 15 players of all time one because of the way he can score and the ease with which he scores and has helped transition that

Center position that mold of a position into what it is now guys like him and the Joker and in addition to that what he’s had to deal with in his career what he’s had to overcome the guy almost never even played basketball and number three I think that if he keeps this up

You know not only will he be one of the greatest players like he may be in comvo for one of the best scorers of all time like all time the ease with which he scores you got to put him up there with some of these guys man I know people

Will not give him the credit because he can’t get past the second round because he’s had to deal with a lot of drama and stuff and he’s got to do it in the postseason but you know the way people talk about wil Chamberlain and Kareem

And and these guys you know 30 40 years ago the way that people talk about them now is how people are going to talk about Joel embiid in 30 years they’re going to say remember Joel embiid he was an absolute mammoth of a center he did everything he helped evolve the game and

When they look back at his career performance is this game’s going to be right then and there and I’m so grateful I got to see with my own two eyes I’ve never seen somebody take over a building like that that was absolutely insane I will end off by saying this and

I said the same thing in the live stream right after the game darl Mory you have to do what it takes to make this team a championship Contender whether that’s a big flash move whether that’s another role player I don’t care what it is this

Team can go all the way they have the exact glue pieces they need I’m watching niik Batum tap the ball out on offensive rebounds like it’s his day job I’m watching Nico Batum get these little plucks on defense be in the right spots make the right passes I’m seeing Kelly

UB in there doing all the little things even Tobias was scoring when he wanted to and Maxi we know can take over they need a little bit more but if if they can get there and if you can make the right move and you find the right

Players you have to do it there’s no if Sands of butts I don’t care about the cap space I don’t care about the future plans this is the year go in win it if Joel and beat is healthy I know it’s a big if but if he is healthy this team

Has never been in a better position to win a championship they have the mold they have the chemistry and they have one of the greatest players that we have ever seen get it done Sixers win what a night historic historic absolutely unbelievable whether you hate Joel embiid whether you love him whether you

Want to you know downgrade him for his pass whatever this was special and it was every bit of the Hype

  1. That no look pass to Oubre between 4 defenders was a banger. The feed from Embiid 🔥Special night & the great thing about it is THERES MORE TO COME

  2. Greatest Scorer of this generation? Joke of generation. Yep, he managed to score 25 and 16 in the last two playoff deciders. Relax man.

  3. It's past midnight, so I'm not being being negative on the 70pt night, but I find any player doing the Wilt paper pose to be so cornball if its done unironically 😅

  4. The fact that he scored 70 in 2024 with only one 3 is wild. To put in perspective KAT had 10 3s in his 62 last night

  5. Hey RB, I posted some stats over on DJ's post game vid if you want to check them out What Embiid's season might look like if he didn't sit out a bunch of blow out game 4th quarters.

    The GOAT this season.. When he makes it look THIS easy (NBA is not easy 😂), you know he's on another level.

  6. Michael Jordan’s career high of 69 came before his first ring. They used to say the same about him, too

  7. Scores 70 with only 1 3 pointer made against a giant even for someone Embiid's size! Treated Wemby like he wasnt even there. The man is on a mission! All credit to Nick Nurse for not being afraid to unlock his Superstar's potential

  8. The thumbnail of this video is indisputable. When people talk about the best scores in the league right now they don't even mention Joel. It's an absolute joke and a straight up lie. I don't think there's anyone else even close to him for the title of best scorer in the league. He's one of the greatest scorers of all time.

  9. D House needs to read the room!! Lol Embiid did the damn thang!! 👊🏾Now I need him to throw MFs around in the paint like this in every game for now on! Letsss goooo!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❤💙🤍

  10. I don’t think they need to make a big splash move. They have a really good roster that’s improving as the season goes on. Just a couple of depth moves could put this roster over the top. A backup combo guard(Jordan Clarkson type of player). Someone who can run the 2nd unit and go get buckets. Then a backup PF/SF(DFS type of player).
