What does being a former MVP have to do with the player he was that season?

Embiid has never had a guard play great consistently in the playoffs, until Maxey last season lol. And even then, Maxey disappeared in the elimination game.

James Harden and Ben Simmons, two guys who notoriously disappear in the postseason, were his best guards. Even going really far back (before Embiid was in his prime) for the half a season that he had Jimmy, he wasn't really that great in the postseason either.

Jokic, as great as he is, only wins in the playoffs when Murray plays at a superstar level. When they had their title run, Murray went nuts and put up absurd numbers. As Steve Kerr called him, the "head of the snake" for the Nuggets. That's what it takes as a big man you gotta have a guard who can create and get buckets consistently like Murray did. Without Murray, Jokic got swept in the first and second rounds both MVP seasons lol.


So anyway, you gonna change your pfp when embiitch leaves/gets kicked out of philly?

fully expecting Embiid to eventually get tilted and say something that will force Philly and Embiid into a bitter divorce

@ShamsCharania: "Philadelphia 76ers star Paul George has a bone bruise in his left knee and is listed out for the next two games. He will be re-evaluated on Monday."

MRI of the left knee revealed no structural damage. Thankfully not long term

Embiid may NEVER have an iconic playoff moment, so why tf are you talking so much about Jokic and Giannis? They did what every great player could ever dream of doing Championship + FMVP


Cool, they also had guards who carried them when needed and dominated the playoffs. Something every big needs to win it all.

You say this type of shit only when it applies to the 76ers you know that right? You have no qualms about setting expectations on others

Tbh, fatboy has 0 credit ability or integrity. As long as it fits his argument, bros got the memory of a gold fish when it doesn’t.
