Wow! I shared this video with my friend😛
Joel is a beast his game keeps evolving 🔥
MVP
first
Joel is him🔥🔥
When Joel decides to be dominant, he’s better than 99.99% of players
And that’s what frustrates me
He doesn’t put his head down and drive a lot, he takes free throw jumpers or free throws
🫨
Embiid is greater than Charles Barkley even without a ring 😄
GO SIXERS ❤💙🏀🙌🏾
Embiid is a monster..
76 announcer is the most annoying announced in the NBA.
Monster night
Love em or hate em embiid is continuing to get better every season it would be great to see him get a ring
imagine in embiid plays like this in the playoffs 😱
Unstoppable
Joel only wants to compete against the bad teams. Sits out all the big games.. had to whine for his MVP instead of competing for it
I hope this season he gets lucky and stays healthy in the postseason for the 1st time in career
Gotta feel for Michael Porter, Murray and Gordon. Their balls must be dry as hell with all the Jokic dick riding
Embiid is a beast, just keep him healthy the sixers will have deep run.
Another great game for mr regular season guy, get that back to back mvp!
Bro gets fouled on nearly every single play and people wonder why he gets free throws hahahahaa
Self hating racist
MVP EMBIID! better than Jokic
Sad that such a dominant player is stuck in Philly. I hate that he is playing for a team like the sixers. They are never going to win. They can't beat the Celtics ever and he is not the most healthy player. He needs to go play with Indiana
Sixers should make a move and get rid of Tobias Harris… perhaps they can get someone from Chicago of Charlotte for Tobi
if Embiid does not get injured this year, he is going to have a big run in the playoffs, Nurse plays him differently then Sixers previous coaches, he has alot more energy going into 4th qtrs because of the substitution patterns and not making Embiid play so much 1 on 1.
Some fun Joel Embiid playoff facts:
The best team he's beaten in the playoffs is the 2022 5th seed Raptors led by Siakam and FVV
He averages 22 PPG on 49.2% TS in elimination games(a 9 game sample size)
In NO playoff run has he ever averaged more assists than turnovers
He is the ONLY MVP in league history to never make the conference finals
This year, he had the biggest PPG drop from the RS to the playoffs of any MVP winning season
He turned the ball over 8 times in back to back elimination games against the Hawks in 2021
He's shot under 20% from three over his last two playoff runs
He had a worse eFG% than Russell Westbrook during the 2023 playoffs
With a chance to go up 3-1, Joel Embiid went 0-12 in the second half against the 5 seeded Hawks in game 4, including missing a wide open layup to take the lead
He got stripped by Danilo Gallnari to seal the loss in game 7
Down 3 in game 5 of the same series with 15 seconds left, he missed BOTH free throws to seal the game
All of his offensive numbers(PPG, RPG, APG, TOS, FG% 3P% FT%) are worse in the playoffs than in the regular season aside from FT%
He has only won ONE playoff series in his career where he played in all four wins(2022 vs. Toronto)
He is 0-3 in game 7s and has posted a 49% TS and 5.3 TOs a game in those 3 games
He once got swept in a series despite averaging FIFTEEN free throws per game(2020 vs. Boston)
Over the last two seasons, he has a 9.2 BPM in the regular season(box plus minus) and a 1.0 BPM in the playoffs
WORST OF ALL: HE IS 9/38 IN CLUTCH(within 5 points, last 5 minutes by NBA definition) SITUATIONS DURING HIS PLAYOFF CAREER, WITH AN UNFATHOMABLE TS% of 35.7%
The only player in the nba that can go toe to toe with Jokic
Go Tyrese go Indiana, I'm 🇺🇦 and I'm with you
Big difference in his game this year is he’s crashing the O glass
He'll probably break every sixers record
