Embiid's biggest fans here I see



You can’t possibly think he’s the best player in the NBA

Nooo, never said that. Top 10 for sure though.

But he has the potential to be the best though, even though for big men it's hard to reach that status since it typically goes to the wings. That's why he is so frustrating to Sixers fans, because he could literally be the most dominant player in the league based on his size, athleticism and skill set.

I think you meant to say, should be. He is absolutely amazing in spurts and could be for longer periods if not for a few fatal flaws.

We are talking about a league where he’s legitimately the ONLY real skilled big man over 7ft, he should dominate every game but he doesn’t due to a mixture of poor conditioning, lack of understanding of his strengths in comparison to his competition, and poor team fit.

He’s his own problem

1. Attitude
2. Effort
3. Conditioning


No one to blame but himself

I have Embiid at 12 on my list personally

Butler though? The fuck

And Lillard def isn't either, as good as he is offensively he'll never impact the game the way Embiid does with his ability to turn any team around single handedly (which Lillard can't do as he makes very little impact defensively).

Also Embiid > Jokic

Embiid > PG

But those are debates for another day.

You’re neglecting my negatives of Embiid — he’s certainly more talented ...

But he’s soft as baby shit and out of shape and gets hurt too often .
Those are factors you have to consider lad
