All-time NBA players with 3 scoring titles and 2 MVP's

1) Wilt Chamberlain
2) Michael Jordan

That's it. That's the list.

Joel Embiid is on pace to join them as he is currently leading the league in scoring for the third consecutive season and is the heavy favorite to repeat as MVP.

The irony is Wilt was known for dropping off in the playoffs too, but at least he did get some hardware unlike Embiid

Not having a championship doesn't negate all-time greatness. A lot of greats don't have one, including Iverson. But yes, if he wins one he can cement himself as not only a top center but a top player, period.

Embiid is just different. You're watching the greatest scorer of this generation. The accolades keep piling up, and he's not even peaked yet. Just when everyone thinks he's done improving he literally just gets better every season still.

If Embiid tries to throw Maxey under the bus... LORD. He has an elite coach and an elite young guard next to him, there are no more excuses for the big baby. If the 76ers don't advance past the 2nd round it will rest squarely on Embiid's shoulders.


Finals appearance or Bust

How many year it’s been? Allen Iverson dragged the team to Finals 2000 lol

What does it matter if you get out of the second round only to lose to the ECF's?

76ers got the Celtics in the 2nd round last season. If they had gotten any other opponent, they'd advance. Celtics were their cryptonite (and still took em 7 games). Would that mean they were successful, if they still lost to the Celtics in the following round??? It all depends on 2nd round matchup really.

Because 3rd round is > 2nd rd & you need to get to the 3rd to even have a chance. :wallbash: :wacko:

You wouldn't have this opinion if the sixers lost in the ecf or finals
