He'll collect the check tho….Embiid is pathetic!!!!!!!! How dare u play back to back basketball games when u make millions 🖕
He said,he helped usa to win a medal?!?🤣🤣🤣he was by far their weakest player
More shae cornette please. not even paying attention to what she says.
If he married a black woman I bet he wouldn’t be injury prone
But when kawhi do it’s a problem lol
Sixers once again not going far 😂😂😂
Can we keep her instead of Molly?
Embiid is an inspiration to us all. After I get off the toilet, I'm going to call my boss to tell him I'll only work Monday, Wednesday and Friday, but I expect the same salary.
Why is Philadelphia paying all this money to two players who can't even stay healthy during the season or even before the season starts…
Imagine Joker,Greek, or Tatum saying that smh. joel is the biggest cry baby in the league
Most of Joel's injuries came from him purposely falling, then someone falling on him
He will play 1/2 games, just not both
Lmao there still a second round exit. They will never see a third round.
Embiid can’t do his job without injury and SAS can’t do his job without bias. Wild 😂
Stephen A a fraud for this cause if this was kawhi or any player he don’t like he’d be yelling bs and saying they should retire
This is pitiful lmao
MAN WHAT ALOT OF YOU GUYS IN THE COMMENTS SAID IS ON POINT AND SO TRUE…STEPHEN A SMITH IS THE BIGGEST CLOWN ON TV ESPECIALLY IN SPORTS… I CANT WAIT FOR THE DAY THAT HE ISNT ON TV/ESPN ANYMORE…. KAWHI GETS INJURED THEN SAS SAYS HE’S THE WORST SUPERSTAR EVER AND THAT HE SHOULD RETIRE BUT WHEN EMBID GETS INJURED STEPHEN A SMITH GLAZES HIM LIKE ITS A CONTEST FOR #1 GLAZER OF ALL TIME LOL HE IS K1SSING UP TO HIM BECAUSE HE USED TO WORK FOR A PHILLY SPORTS MEDIA OUTLET AND TALKS DOWN ON KAWHI BECAUSE WHENEVER HE SEE’S KAWHI THE KLAW JUST WALKS PAST HIM LIKE HE’S A NOBODY AND HE IS SALTY ABOUT IT STILL AND WILL NEVER FORGET IT THATS WHY HE ONCE SAID HE SEEN KAWHI BUT THE KLAW DIDNT SAY A WORD AND THEN GUESS WHAT STEPHEN A SAID LOL ONE OF HIS FAVORITE LINES EVER… “AINT NOBODY SCARED OF HIM” LMAO WHAT A CLOWN INCANT WAIT TIL HE’S GONE🤣🤣🤣🤡🤡🤡
Wow. And this is the example the 76ers' star player sets for his teammates? What a clown.
Leadership and availability are two of the most important qualities a superstar can have and he lacks both.
I’m confused. SAS crucifies Kwahi, who’s a 2x champ and 2x Finals MVP yet supports a guy who never made it past the semis while considering THAT SAME GUY the best big man from a talent perspective.
The double Standards on Kawhi is crazy…
NBA should greatly reduce or even cut out back-to-back games.
He needa slim down to help his knees and be in better condition. Jokic did it that one season and never looked back
Joel is getting cry money. Imagine you buying tickets to a game and now finding out the Possible MVP candidate you paid to come see is not playing
If he is white Stephen a Smith will smoke him and say no its b.s.
This is the same dude that really believes if DeMar and Kawhi didn't swap places, the Raptors would still win the chip.
Health. It is similar to Kawhi. Clippers and Sixers will not go far. Do not bet on either team.
Again… the Knicks are the biggest threat to the Celtics. If you thought it was the Sixers, you are obviously delusional.
Mr. Cameron crybaby, he did France wrong. Throwing treamates under the bus. Choke artist.
please be consistent SAS, of you are asking Kawhi to retire, why not do the same for Embiid?
Number one threat to Boston…yeah aiight 😅

Let me introduce you to MR. SCREAMIN' A. SMITH the WALKING CONTRADICTION. Embiid gets a pass because he's from Philly. SAS has a soft spot for Philly players. But, let that had been KAWHI LEONARD or God forbid KYRIE IRVING saying this he would of read them the riot act.
A very big "IF"
