7'2 hitting middys like Richard Hamilton out there. definitely an unskilled manufactured star

Of course he's hitting midrange... he's so warmed up from all the FTs...

I kid, I kid

I super don't understand the smug posting after watching how three-quarters of foul merchanting functionally forced Minnesota to stop contesting Joel Embiid jumpers. I'm not arguing it, because it's a complete waste of effort, but yeesh.

Dude is a talented player, but tonight was legitimately a displeasure to watch.

Easy done when nobody is allowed to defend him. Work was done in the first.

I have more respect for Maxey's game than anyone else on the 76ers, dude is a baller.

Clips are just a steamroller now

Some of us are foul merchant connoisseurs. I have a foul merchant sommelier that brings me only the finest bull fouls to my table.

gotta stop fouling him then. Teams go into games looking to be physical and this is what happens when you're trying to be physical against someone as skilled as Embiid.

Denver is getting their groove back

IMO it’s the guys who didn’t play tons of basketball growing up that get butthurt watching Embiid. Myself, I played thousands of hours playing high school basketball, going to summer camps, open gyms, in the driveway, in the streets, ect. The majority of that time was spent playing 1-on-1 and working on the offensive moves facing the basket that Embiid has mastered, including drawing fouls. That’s why watching Embiid is so enjoyable for someone like me.

Embiid is just unwatchable. As bad as prime Harden. **** you Adam Silver.

I'm just returning the constant Embiid/Sixers smug. nothing against Twolves

[Slacktard]

Embiid going to have another legacy game this year if he pulls this win off tonight. Has the whole Timberwolves squad in foul trouble.

I think people are just about done with Embiid legacy games in the regular season . He's gotta start doing some playoff damage before he is taken seriously for all time ranks

Can't play playoff games in December

At the end of the day, this is the best month of Embiids career game after game of dominance.

LeBron threw a sweet behind the back pass to the Laker's bench

[GopherIt!]

the reffing this game has been a joke. can’t play physical at all vs a 7’2 280 center.

80% of the leagues stars flail their arms and whine when they don't get calls. At this point, you just gotta let the haters hate when it comes to Embiid

Do you even watch your own team? The fouls he’s getting aren’t some egregious contact fouls. They’re touch fouls that aren’t getting called on any other play or the other end.

Look how many times Ant was hacked in this game with no call.

Disagree, I enjoyed the game.

For the last week+ the talk was all "Whatever. Embiid just stat padding against garbage teams. He won't show up against Minnesota (if he even plays)"

[dygaction]

Luka bowlinged Harden and Mann for a layup.
