It’s simple, he misses them. Joel is damn near 90% at the line that’s why it’s a problem.

That’s because the goalposts are always moving for credibility of Philly athletes and teams by the other fanbases/some national media. They love to hate us.

Yep because Joel can make his freethrows whilst Giannis can’t.

Giannis doesn’t get slander from the NBA media because he pretends to be humble and talks about eating Oreos in his press conferences, which the average NBA fan and the media eats up. That’s why every controversial thing he does gets overlooked, such as when he made a big scene about getting the game ball in the Pacers game and when he did that ladder thing on our court, too.

One more thing guys is you know Giannis has been a playoff dropper every year apart from 2021 yet he never gets called out for it like other stars do.
Here’s Giannis’s playoff TS% in his last 4 elimination series:
2023 v Miami: 52 TS%
2022 v Boston: 51 TS%
2020 v Heat: 55 TS%
2019 v Raptors: 52 TS%
Funny how he gets called an elite playoff performer though don’t you think? Even Embiid has a better career playoff TS% than Giannis does. Embiids is 57.9 TS% over his playoff career and Giannis’s is 57.5 TS. Giannis is really protected by the media and NBA fans. I guess it’s partially because he won a title which I get but I don’t know why they pretend he’s a great playoff performer outside of 2021.

I’ll bite since no one else wants to be objective here. Embiid averages more per game. Posting their totals just makes us look really stupid. Giannis has played 9 more games which is 29% more than Embiid.
If you want to say people complain more about Embiid’s despite it being similar in FTA per game, that’s another discussion, but posting the total and everyone jerking it off is pretty embarrassing for our fanbase in my opinion.

A lot of y’all would rather talk about what other people are saying about basketball than talk about basketball

I can’t believe how much of this sub is devoted to pearl-clutching. I mean who gives a flying fuck about what people who aren’t fans of the Sixers think of Embiid?? If we know he’s great (we do), why is everyone so insecure?
