Jokic?

JOKIC?

You talking about b2b MVP with zero Finals appearances, talking about more playoffs success???? Hahahahahaha

Curry - weak defense (best shooter ever though)
Jokic - weak defense

Giannis has a case as the best, but he has flaws in his game with a questionable jump shot. Embiid is the whole package. Elite defender, elite scorer, scores at all three levels.

Embiid has never played 70 games in a season and never will

The 76ers TBH would be really smart to trade Embiid while they can still get an insane haul for him before his glass knees send his career into the abyss

Embiid percentage of regular season games played last 3 seasons (including this one):

2020-21: 71%
2021-22: 83%
2022-23: 82%

Not sure what we're supposed to be upset about here?




Enough about Embiid, this is a Celtics thread. Let's get back to mocking them while celtics fans are in hiding.

Are we talking about Embiid, or the 76ers as a team?

Embiid always performs when hes out there, hes great in the playoffs. But how many superstars are making a deep playoff run relying on Ben Simmons as your second best player? Lol

They all can't have a clutch closer like Middleton carrying the clutch moments to a Championship. Half a year of Jimmy Butler was nice, and that realistically would have been their year if Kawhi wasn't a God damn machine that season destroying everyone. They just happened to cross the best team in the league in the second round, instead of the ECF's, but still played them better than anyone else did.

Bro you can’t dog on Tatum or Jokic for playoff performance when Embiid has done absolutely nothing to prove his dominance in the playoffs. Having individual stats does not cut it, you would say the same thing for Jokic or Tatum (even when they both have achieved more in the playoffs)

Embiid has had Butler and now Harden which are better players than Middleton ever was even at his peak. He has to get it done in the playoffs or people are just going to keep clowning him. People were putting Simmons in top 10 All-NBA conversations too so don’t act like he was always considered a bum. Philly mismanaged their talent, Simmons and Embiid wanted to share the same spots offensively. Should’ve cashed in on Simmons or Embiid to get better fitting pieces but hey we have been over these terrible moves by Philly FO many times.

Celtics are smart to always rest Timelord against the Bucks. They know that playing him isn’t even worth it because it allows the Bucks to play Lopez more.

Hes made it further than embid which is my point :rofl: . Even as sad as it is, he's atleast made a WCF and Embid hasn't even done that. Yet he's the best player in the NBA? Your delusional, keep holding onto your regular season success because that's all the sixers are good for.
