Embiid was asked what prompted his off the backboard dunk: “I like to challenge myself, and Anthony Edwards is one of my top 3 favorite players in the league. … I mean, dude is so nice. And I saw it last night. I was like, ‘If he can do it, why can’t I do it, too?'”

    29 year old strives to be like 22 year old when he grows up

    “I like to challenge myself”

    By seeing how hard you can flop without getting a tech? Nothing about your game is a challenge you soft boy

    Edit: tell me I’m wrong, I dare you

    I honestly don’t know who’s game Joel couldn’t emulate, he’s got every move, he can score from everywhere, and now this season he’s decided to pass like Jokic.

    If I liked Joel this might be endearing but I hate him so it makes him seem corny and lame

    I always thought that self service off the backboard was not allowed in a game

    Ant walks into a room and commands respect like MJ or Kobe

  7. He’s slowly picking up an American accent I would imagine by the end of his career he’d just sound an American like Dirk.

    Today it’s an off the backboard dunk, tomorrow he’ll be asking a side chick to get an abortion.

    He changed his pivot foot man… these up and under moves are driving me crazy (more the inconsistent un-hashed out calls/rules)

    You all hate this man. You should be ashamed

    This guy is like Murasakibara with Kise’s power from Kuroko’s basketball.

  12. He said Jokic was the best player in the league, Ant is top3, who is the third guy?

    chet started this thing this year though right? i hadn’t seen anyone do it before him this year. and there’s been more this year than i can remember.

    Love the show of appreciation by emulation by embiid but no offense, ants is way more impressive given he’s a undersized 6’4 guard ferociously dunking the ball as if he was 5 inches taller lol.
