Even Embiid fans are now well aware what the standing is now. Dont think you'll get any push from Embiid fans until he has a great playoff run


You are crazy if you actually think the famously delusional Embiid fan here will change his mind after this.

Even if he still believes Embiid is better, they'll know there will be no point in discussing it.

I got Jokic!

But please don’t tell me Denver’s roster worse than the Sixers lol

Harden (what a fraud) and Milton, House playing meaningful minutes in Game 7 is just crazy. Give me Denver’s roster all day

Everyone knows this flopping jackass (Embiid) NEVER plays when he has even the SLIGHTEST injury. Hell, he's missed almost as many games as he's played in his entire career.

Hasn’t he been playing through injuries all year?

He should lose weight, lower his usage and focus on defense to really max out his value, imo.

He's proven post season under performer.

This is hakeem vs Robinson 95. No h2h matchup, but now we know who the real mvp was and embiid ain't it

bad comparison, Robinson was the real MVP, no question

Jokic is in a completely and utterly different stratosphere come playoff time.

Jokic will be in the conversation for top ~10-15 all when it's all said and done. Embiid maybe top 75.

Hey, Kendrick Perkins - this here is your MVP that has been held back due to racism...

This is very true, Jokic > Embiid.

I will say this though, I don't even know if Jokic's basketball wizardry could overcome Doc Rivers Game 7 witchcraft.

That's some powerful bad mojo he has.

Embiid had a terrible game, but half this front page is littered with Embiid haters taking a victory lap. Come on.

Kendrick perkins is who his peers call him out to be: a sell out who tears down other players to generate attention. He's also just straight up racist trying to pull that jokic only won MVPs because he's white crap.

I am not a nuggets fan whatsoever nor am I even rooting for them against the lakers, but Jokic is just the best player on the planet and it's been a pleasure watching him shut people like perkins up.

Everyone has a little homer in them fam, keep your head up ya'll deserve better than this. Harden struggled a lot the last 3 games but at the very least he took over and won 2 games earlier in the series practically by himself.

I'm honestly surprised you're not more inclined to blame it on injury

Have you see how 76ers fans behave on here? Some are good sports like George Marcus but most of them are the absolute worst, most mean spirited and bad faith posters on the board.
