I’d be really impressed if Embiid does this to the Bucks with Lopez and Giannis guarding him.
I'm Giannis fan but, damn! This year belongs to Joel. He's doing everything
Welcome to the NBA moment for Wemby lol.
Last year jokic got robbed but embiid deserves to be an mvp this year.
Giannis wants the gameball
💥💥
WOw….. fantastic Joel 🙂
Did he even miss anything? incredible! what a player
Sharq+Nowitzki
Let's not underestimate the fact that he did it against wemby. Not saying the rookies already an elite defender, but having the confidence to shoot mid range against an 8 ft wingspan center with a solid lateral pace is crazy.
Embiid made insane history and showed how to dominate Wemby
This is incredible!
Wemby is definitely going to hit the gym hard in the off season, he is slowly realizing he is to scrawny to guard someone like embiid
MVP!!!
After being gifted mvp last year he is aware he will not be able to get another one and play enough games. Great player would save his energy with weaker opponents and save himself for stronger ones and later in the season but vanity is more important. He will get tired and skip the games and fake injury. Weak coach as well as he knows that there is no hope in playoff so any news is good news. Otherwise he would save his best player who is prone to injuries for later and serious challenges.
True 70sixter 😎
Sick…
And this after Shaq said he choose Jokic over Embiid.
Embiid showing Wemby why he's the MVP this season
PS:
Not last season tho
this dude really is the most skilled big EVER.
Spurs defense was hard to watch… do they not have a defensive coach or something??😂
Better than jokic
The common comments no criticism about popovich what if you found out a player as spectacular like wemby wouldn't matter. In the future with popovich he will not matter forever popovich is a vessel of once was great. Wemby is the future not a coach dead and already gone
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👑
heat in 5
He's so dominant and such a great scorer. Definitely deserves the regular season mvp. Still has to prove himself in the playoffs tho
Got away w some offensive fouls but still very impressive scoring display!
Greatest stat padder of all time🙌🏽
Most Dominant player NOW
Solid addition to USA national basketball team.
Embiid haters are quiet now huh? 😹
Fully believed he didnt deserve MVP over Joker last year but not a doubt he is the best in the league this year
Well, it was against the Spurs… but respect!
If the guy scores 70, than something is wrong in the team.
I think Embiid just wanted to welcome Victor to the NBA
Bro these comentators are trash 😂
Wemby is like a stick compared to Joel Embiid
People who like this kind of performance doesn't like basketball. Silver will gonna ruined the NBA. Everything for some privileged people like the society and individuality. Ugly.
Did it to one of the worse teams in the league
Impressive regardless but still have to acknowledge it was against the….
And Wemby, as great as he will be, ain’t exactly a physical build.
The "FT" lord strikes again
SAS had Noone at all to guard him
Can he make it to the third round though
Not saying he is not great, but dude had 41 FG attempt and 24 FTs and Philadelphia did not really dominate against Spurs either, the worst team in the league. They light years away of having a championship team.
this was big- and against wemby too- this was a statement
Joker still better🎉
