This is it right here. Blame the refs, not Embiid, he just wants to win.

Embid is as close to being a dirty player as you can get without getting called on it.
When he flails his elbows he should be called on it.If he does get called on it he will crumble,and start to whine,and it will throw him off his game.Its no wonder Barnes was still pissed,and went after Maxey when Embid tried to screen him.I think a lot of players are sick ,and tired of how Embid plays with his elbows flailing.
I,d like to see our guys start trash talking him about his elbows if it happens again.Get in his face,and complain about it,or complain to the refs about it.

This is just an incredible history of incidents for Embiid.

I opened the thread thinking it was about the Knicks game. Nope, it's from 2 years ago.

Never change WebEmbiid. Never change.

Where's Oak and Mase when you need them?

He is the only player in the entire league at the moment that I actively wish he would have career-ending injury and be put out to pasture with his dirty antics. Saw the highlights of last night's game and I feel pretty confident I'm not wrong in wishing that. It's really too bad because he's way too talented to be behaving this way.

It's sad since he's extremely talented but the pressure to win at all costs has led him to think he needs to be the villain. He has lost his rizz. Apparently the Bells Palsy is psychosomatic?!?

That is definitely a dirty play and if Robinson has to miss any time then Joel should be suspended. Adam Silver doesn't have the balls to suspend him during this series because his ratings would be affected unfortunately.

And ya...it seems like every year he has a new medical related excuse for wrapping out in the playoffs. The year we beat them he supposedly had food poisoning. A couple of years later he was poked in the eye by Pascal. This year it's Bells Palsy.

I love how Clay works 'rizz' into every post.

That was 100% a dirty play and he’s lucky the officials/league didn’t throw the book at him. Draymond stomped on Sabonis for something similar and got a lighter punishment because of that argument. Embiid was emotional on that play because he thought he got fouled and was out of control.

Embiid has a history of intentional and unintentional reckless behaviour. He also flopped a few years ago which led to undercutting his teammate Danny Green and blowing out his knee.

A weak mind leads to weak actions. Embiid flops for calls, whines for MVP votes, and throws teammates under the bus after losses and that is why he will never lead his team to a championship.

Thank you brother. I've been dedicated to this movement and to growing it for the past year or so and I'm not going to stop now I've had a lot of opposition but I've never let it deter me. I just want to make a difference and to grow so that other people can feel comfortable expressing their rizz and their inner character. I do a lot of meditation, mindfulness, yoga, etc.

Admittedly an incredibly talented player, but he's also a whiny, cheap-shotting, spoiled and entitled child. He followed up this game littered with dirty tactics by essentially calling out the blue-collar Philly fans for white collar New Yorkers buying up playoff seats in Philly.

I like the core of his game, but everything outside the pure basketball stuff makes him my least favourite player in the league, and I truly look forward to the day he retires. Ideally ringless.

Dirty play again Sunday. Happened just before a review of a separate play between Hart and Lowry. No review. Adam Silver in the crowd, but will they review it better games and do something? Not for Embiid, other players they would.

He's definitely not just a flopper. He entirely knows what he's doing. When he falls towards someone, he doubles down on his sloppiness and lands on people. He makes no effort to avoid a player or an injury to a player. He doesn't even show remorse. He usually just acts like he is the victim and someone fell on him.

Yup, the top 3 MVP candidates are all physical specimens in their own way and require some sort of size to deter. Jokic, Embiid and Giannis aren't going anywhere anytime soon.
Yup. He shouldn't trim his own game. He's a competitor and this ain't rec league.

His dad retired, so he can do whatever he wants now. We need Gasol back in the NBA.

When is JoJo not dirty?

Everyone would want him on their squad.
