Trust the Process

That's my unethical star

Sombor Double

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

[–] mistergrape@alien.top 1 points 11 months 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

[–] SpitBallar@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Box score bitch

[–] jacobythefirst@alien.top 1 points 11 months 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 11 months ago

He identifies as American

[–] Rectophobic@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (3 children)

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

[–] jcrankin22@alien.top 1 points 11 months 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 11 months 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 11 months ago

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

[–] PoI_Pothead@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Maybe the Thunder should stop fouling?

[–] Luxiqqq@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It's expected at this point

[–] SpitBallar@alien.top 1 points 11 months 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 11 months 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 11 months ago

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

[–] SpitBallar@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

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

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 11 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 11 months ago

Same number of titles. Nobody celebrates a conference final

[–] SandyMandy17@alien.top 1 points 11 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

[–] D09987766@alien.top 1 points 11 months 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 11 months 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 11 months ago

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

[–] StageAcceptable7182@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Just another Dak🏈🏀. Neither one are winning jack

[–] AnkitPancakes@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

monster game

[–] StageAcceptable7182@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Just another Dak. Neither one is winning jacc

Too big, too strong.

[–] dat_waffle_boi@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

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 11 months 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 11 months 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 11 months ago

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

[–] SandyMandy17@alien.top 1 points 11 months 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 11 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] SandyMandy17@alien.top 1 points 11 months 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 11 months ago

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

[–] StageAcceptable7182@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Just another Dak. Both ain't winning jacc😂

[–] EndTimesPreacher24@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

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

[–] The16th@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

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

[–] Section_80@alien.top 1 points 11 months 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 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] kokukojuto33@alien.top 1 points 11 months 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
