ESPN Sources: Ben Simmons and the Philadelphia 76ers have reached a settlement agreement on the grievance the All-Star guard filed to recoup a portion of the nearly $20 million withheld him as a result of his failure to play games in the 2021-2022 season. Story soon.

Embiid won't keep that up his whole career, whereas MJ's is finalized.

Embiid has played 6 seasons at this point in his career.

In Jordan's first 6 seasons, he averaged essentially the same exact points per minute (0.83) as Embiid has.


Embiid's two most recent seasons (0.92 and 0.91) have been right in line with Jordan's two best seasons (0.93 and 0.90).


Walking bucket.

He wont have the same durability or career length jordan had tho

Jordan took time off to play baseball, Embiid can slot in an injury in place of baseball

Welp, there it is

DM is finally to the point of comparing Embiid with MJ

That may be true, since big men usually don't last as long as guards do.

But it still doesn't take away from the fact that Embiid's points per minute production is as good as anyone has ever seen in NBA history. His peak production in that category is as good as Jordan's peak production, even when comparing his best seasons.

Embiid 0.83 career points per minute. Nobody else is even at 0.80 rofl.



In points per minute scoring, yes, we are going to compare them. Since you know....they deserve to be compared, as Embiid's cold hard numbers prove as #1 in history. Embiid is #1, Jordan is #2 there, hence why the picture compared the two of them.

At the end of the day the NBA has never had a player that is as productive a scorer as Embiid is for every minute he's on the floor. This is factual.

Shaq has a better lateral quickness though.

Also you're not taking into account the pace of the game and # of possession increases.

lol you can't be serious?
