Giannis averaged more free throws per game last year than Embiid, but no one bitches about it because he sucks at shooting. Cry harder.

Get out of the 2nd round and make the world forget Embiid's historically bad regular season to playoff fall off, and him being the only MVP to never make a conference finals.

You guys have nothing until Embiid actually convinces people he's a top 5 player when it matters.

Time is ticking.

Could say the same about the Celtics that keep winning shit, congrats on all of those conference finals and finals appearances, what do you have to show for that?

[–] ComfortableDino@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

A finals and 4 conference finals appearances before our superstar turns 26.

You absolutely cannot say the same.

[–] kokukojuto33@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

Same number of titles. Nobody celebrates a conference final

None of what you just said has anything to do with the comment to which you were replying.

You could’ve said that same thing about MJ after his first mvp lmao.

Giannis actually uses his strength to drive and doesn't play like he is 160lb. Unlike embiid who broke his teammates leg by flopping

[–] SandyMandy17@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Nobody bitches about it bc he drives through the lane like a freight train

It makes sense

Embiid shoots swing through contested middies and falls onto my guard’s legs every other play, I hate watching it

If embitch was more like Giannis he would be universally adored

Go to the rack bro you’re 370 pounds

Go cheer on the pedo on your team.

Why’d you give a bullshit spiel about how you “hate watching” him when it’s obvious you don’t even watch Embiid play?

“shoots contested middies every other play” “go to the rack bro” holy shit you’re dumb af, just making shit up about Embiid. He plays around the rim plenty

Giannis shoots 71% of his shots within 8 feet of the basket

Embiid shoots 50% of his shots within 8 feet of the basket

SGA shoots 44% of his shots within 8 feet of the basket

Embiid shoots a guard diet at 7’1 450 pounds

He’s soft
