Embiid with a truly special game: 70 points, 18 rebounds, 5 assists on 24-41 FG



What a game!!! This guys stupidly good. That middy is lethal and some great passes. Also had a block and a steal

    At some point holding him under 40 is gonna get you DPOY votes

    Yeah yeah rings but this guy is actually the best player that will ever play for this team and I get to watch him

    This is legitimately like a 2013 LeBron/2016 Steph level historic regular season at this point

    Sixers are now 26-6 when Embiid plays this season and I don’t think their supporting cast is all that impressive compared to “average” teams so it’s a true carry job from an all time individual player

    Not even a huge Embiid fan but he deserves unanimous MVP if the season ended today

    Sixers franchise single game scoring record

    This so easily could have been an 80 point game damn

  6. meowhatissodamnfunny

    You are in the 70 club but /r/nba does not grant you the rank of “ethical hooper.”

  7. I don’t wanna hear any “yeah it was against the spurs”

    You favorite player isn’t dropping fucking 70 just cause its the Spurs. Guarded by their only good defender (I assume)

    The only thing Joel is missing is a ring. I really hope he exorcises his demons this year and gets it done.

    Didn’t get enough shots in the fourth. Wanted to see 80 lol

    Remember in [this thread](https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/s/vHQDNX3Ui9), Embiid tried to offer some advice to Wemby & there’s dozens of comments that acted like Wemby becoming as good as Embiid would be a huge disappointment? I wonder if some of those Spurs fans have changed their tune after this game?

    If Wemby ever becomes good enough to drop 70/18/5, that is a 99th percentile outcome and Spurs fans should be elated.

  11. I thought he would go for 69; I am a little disappointed.

  12. As a massive hater, this is pretty spectacular. Can’t wait to see what KAT ends up with to make a truly historic night

    Celtics mods tryna keep this from hitting the front page like Gandalf vs the Balrog

    Could not have been more glad i dropped money to grab tickets to this matchup MONTHS back

    First time watching the Sixers play. He made that shit look easy. I’m surprised he doesn’t score 50 often.
