It's all health. He's as talented as anyone in the league and already has the personality of a star.

unreal performance

He just turned it on after looking all kinds of out of sorts in the 1st half.

He's a sponge. Never takes him long to make adjustments.

Once these minutes kick in. Shudder at the thought.

I'm not surprised at all by what I'm seeing. I expected to see dominance like this. I said before he was drafted he is the best big man prospect since Duncan. I said before he even played an NBA game he would go to the Hall of Fame as long as he stays healthy and plays starters minutes. I said he can be bettter than Olajuwon and be considered the best center ever. I'm happy with what I see from Embiid. So dominant.

He has great offensive potential and versatility, but his offensive game is very much unrefined right now. He's racking up all these points by being huge and getting lots of touches. Defensively, he's already incredible. I'm excited to see how his offense continues to develop.

What's impressive about Embiid is he is an incredibly fast learner that he gets better every game. It's as if he devours his opponent's soul to get better.

What he's doing is unbelievable. He changed Sixers' culture in his first year.

How many rookies have done that? Bird, Magic, LeBron, Jordan? Wow.

I didn't think he had a rip through move to draw contact until he squared up with Boogie, who used it on him. He learned a new ability :lol:

I've seen him done it many times before boogie. Hes a student of the game tho, that's for certain.

I think he floats around the 3 point line too much sometimes but maybe that's just me being old school. I'd love to see that footwork scouts were raving about more often inside

Embiid said he'll be the best big man in the league one day. I think he'll not only be the best big man, but the best player in the NBA. Got to give credit to Hinkie for believing in him.

The other day against the knicks he kept on making the euro step against Noah.

Having those two redshirt seasons has really helped him with the mental aspect of the game.

What are the odds the sixers accelerate "the process" and package the Laker pick and Sixer pick for a star? Don't get me wrong this draft has some good guards and wings, but not sure anyone of them are NBA ready enough to make a huge impact. Most are probably 3-4 years away. I want to see Embiid making deep playoff runs sooner rather than later. He looks ready.

Embiid Simmons and Paul George looks pretty damn good. And they got cap space to sign some guards that'll complement them well.

Indiana can have all of our picks for Paul George, we have some primo ones too. Hell take Okafor while I'm feeling nice.

I don't really care if he did but you have no idea if that's what he means.

^here its "bull$hit land" because the refs swallowed there whistles..

"bbq chicken" at a philly home game. means whiteside

"as$hole central" at philly. means drummond, had an altercation with him in preseason.

so on and so on. maybe its too subtle for some (it is not really xD)
