Realistically he’s the most underrated in the league considering he’s clearly a top 5 players for like 5 years now and never gets any love from Fans

I muted that sub a while ago. Somehow worse than r/nba

Have they ever watched basketball before?

Yeah I tried defending him but it was too late.
SkyMiteFall
Lmfao the different nba subs on Reddit are truly full of the goofiest human beings on earth ..
Don’t act like you know ball when dude was on pace to have the single greatest season before he got hurt. But yea he’s overrated. Jokic can’t play defense on the overrated bum embiid but he’s the only answer for best player I see 😂😂😂 enough lol

Naturally, FTs is the common argument and it’s meritless when you dig into it. Embiid averaged 24.5 ppg without FTs last year. In comparison, Giannis averaged 19.7, Jokic had 21.7, and SGA had 21.4.

Add it to the ongoing list of reasons why I’d love for Joel to get a gold medal and win a chip for Philly 🔔 💯

I decided to get banned today. I’ve had enough.

PG was 2nd and Jokic is getting voted best 😂

If anything, he’s underrated. People line up around the block to tell you who’s better than him. Jokic, AD, KAT, Gobert, Brian fucking Scalabrine. Meanwhile he and Wilt are the only players in history to average more points than minutes played.

Earlier I saw this and thought it said most overhated

One of the comments under that post says they don’t get the hype for Wemby, like what’s there not to get. That sub is something else

If they said PG I’d understand but Embiid?
slayhern
Realistically who was the last scoring champion to be overrated?

Just ignore that sub, it’s brain dead

That sub and r/NBA are full of people who just don’t understand the game of basketball. None of them can wrap their heads around basketball being a team sport.
Disastrous-Ad-2458
this take is incredibly stupid, and is definitely from a homer toronto fan.
siakam is an all-star caliber player who has significant limitations (jump shooting), but embiid is a transformational 2-way mvp caliber player who can change games on both defense and offense.
how many players are like that in the NBA, and how many are 7’2″?
chilidownmychest
to be fair, joel might take the cake in my eyes for all but a few spots on that board.

embiid hate is just free karma in that sub
mecarlos24
Even if you think Embiid is a foul merchant… Which he can be at times.. He also happens to be the most dominant big in the past decade. But one thing other fans somehow never notice is Joel’s truly team changing defense. It is genuinely appalling.

Don’t interact with that sub it’s legitimately insane

It is deteriorating to narrative driven waffle just like r/NBA but with more arrogance.
I had a guy say to me there about this that embiid is a top 10 player and deserves to be but is the most overrated player.
Wait so he’s a top 10 player and deservedly so but he’s ALSO massively overrated? How???
PetalumaPegleg
Expect embiid to win worst and most overrated (as well as most annoying and funniest)
AggroPro
It’s the pure incel energy Embiid provokes in these guys. Can we call them Emcels?
Steazyone
They are dick suckers lmao now that Paul george is on the sixers, he’s all of a sudden the second most overrated player in the league too, I can’t take this reddit shit serious man. 😭
root88
Are you guys ever going to stop whining about this? It’s going to stay this way until he gets a chip and rightfully so.
Cohenski
Most overrated has got to be a player who is electric offensively and basically makes up for it with bad defense. I’m thinking like a Brunson or Trae
SonofHinkie
The man averaged 34.7 ppg, 11.0 rpg, 5.6 apg.
Not to mention being a top 5 defensive big in the game while carrying the offensive workload.
Listen, I’m often critical of Embiid. I don’t like the flopping and the injuries are frustrating. With that said, anyone who is claiming he is overrated or isn’t as good as the stats suggest is talking out of their fucking ass.
He’s a phenomenal player unlike any I’ve seen in decades. I have never seen a 7 ft big man who can score in the variety of ways that he does while providing elite defense.
It’s a shame NBA fans are so moronic or petty that they can’t even acknowledge he’s a great player. There are plenty of players I’ve disliked over the years who flopped, played “dirty” or whined… Luka, Paul Pierce, Ron Artest, Joakim Noah, Dennis Rodman, Shaq (he was dirty as a mfer). I still acknolwegde and recognize how good they were as players aside from the aspects I dont like.
People really talk about Jojo like his Hitler reincarnate and it’s wild to see.
