That's my unethical star

His passing is legit. Made some really difficult reads this game.

[–] mistergrape@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

For the last 3 years, statistically, Embiid should have been passing more and Jokic should have been shooting more. This year it seems Embiid is learning that.

Flopping superstar

Box score bitch

[–] jacobythefirst@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Cameroon double!

The new system around him is great (plus Maxey growing into a All NBA guard has helped).

[–] pedrosa18@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He identifies as American

[–] Rectophobic@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

19-21 FTs btw. Talk about a free throw merchant lmao.

[–] jcrankin22@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Thunder flair did you even watch the game? You fouled him 4 times in the last three minutes intentionally.

[–] Public-Product-1503@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They’re the same as the warriors fans it seems. Don’t understand when you put a tiny skinny team out against embid , Giannis , or Bron/AD you’re gonna get bully balled n hack to try compensate for size

[–] T4hunderb0lt@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That’s what happens when your team fouls him all game.

[–] PoI_Pothead@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Maybe the Thunder should stop fouling?

[–] Luxiqqq@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's expected at this point

[–] SpitBallar@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

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

[–] ComfortableDino@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (4 children)

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.

[–] LeMonke65@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

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

[–] SpitBallar@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

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

[–] kokukojuto33@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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 2 years 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 2 years ago

Same number of titles. Nobody celebrates a conference final

[–] SandyMandy17@alien.top 1 points 2 years 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

[–] D09987766@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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

Go cheer on the pedo on your team.

[–] Luxiqqq@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

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

[–] Assumption-Putrid@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

6 in the last 10 seconds we're int fouls to extend the game.

[–] StageAcceptable7182@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Just another Dak🏈🏀. Neither one are winning jack

[–] AnkitPancakes@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

monster game

[–] StageAcceptable7182@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Just another Dak. Neither one is winning jacc

Any player in the league could score 35 on 18 shots and 21 FTs lmfao. His passing was nice this game tho I’ll give y’all that

[–] T_Tachi@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

nugget fans are so sad on here.. you won a chip you can let the MVP go

[–] fullmoon-risingsun@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Embiid is so sad on here.. He won his pity mvp and still can’t let the conference finals go

[–] Brokromah@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

you sound like a loser man...not tryna be antagonistic but don't be such a negative nancy

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

He’s completely unbearable to watch

Through 3 quarters the sixers had 36 free throws to our 10

How do you only shoot 8/18 on chet bro you’re 350 pounds

[–] MACKE-BLITZ@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

And then people are wondering why the guys shit come playoffs.

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

Nobody would mind it if he got them like Giannis plowing through the lane

He gets them doing swing throughs and falling onto guard’s legs at 7 foot tall 400 pounds

Like bro just put your back to the basket and walk it in

[–] MACKE-BLITZ@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Exactly, like, a five foot nothing guard is fouling a seven foot tall Embiid in the paint. Cringe.

[–] StageAcceptable7182@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Just another Dak. Both ain't winning jacc😂

[–] EndTimesPreacher24@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

8-18 from the field bro. PURE DOMINANCE GUYZ.

[–] The16th@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The Regular season MVP!! But don’t count on him during the playoffs.

[–] Section_80@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Embiid dropping 30+ and 10+ has become so normal at this point I expect it every game.

It means nothing though if we never win a title.

[–] TurebergPirates@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)
[–] kokukojuto33@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Tbf 6-8 were intentional foulinf at tye end of the game, and in tye rest he was beikg guarded by a guy 6 inches smaller
