Embiid crying for the MVP and winning it was his downfall, because he’s now set an expectation on himself that he simply can’t reach.
Will always be known as the “here nigga damn” MVP 😂
Agreed & Perk helping get his undeserved MVP hurt him big time
@@sdtrezvant😂😂 damn
He didn’t even deserve it. Jokic or Luka did.
the thing is he can reach that expectation, he just doesn’t
He always plays the victim with pisses me off. He’s lazy, he’s a dirty player, he’s a crybaby, he’s a bad teammate but he wonders why everyone hates him. He’s a terrible superstar and he’ll NEVER win a championship.
seriously, how many times has this guy complained and whined to or about refs even though he's always near the top of the league in free throws? and the reason he is never healthy for some of his playoff runs is cause he's throwing himself all over the ground, for no real reason whatsoever.
simply the softest MVP in the history of this league. Sad that 76ers went from a fearless competitor like AI to this flopping cupcake
Once I seen multiple clips of him eating those stupid chicken sandwiches before every game, and him responding angry for the media outlets saying they are bad for him? That let me know everything I need to know about him… 😂
Yeah he’s dirty af. I watched him grab Mitchell Robinson’s leg in the playoffs last year bc he was upset. Dude is a big baby, I don’t feel any sympathy for him
@@phamlong4210That MVP was a disgrace.
I love Joel slander
You too?
Love it
We are all feasting rn
i thought it was only me glad to see there’s others
Shoutout the 46 year old, old man ain’t playing back to backs i dont blame him
Embiid was always fool’s gold to me. He just doesn’t seem to have enough ‘juice’ to get it done as your lead superstar. He’s way too reliant on free throws, and crumbles under pressure easily. He’s fragile physically and mentally. He can put up numbers but not when it matters, or in a way that translates to improving his teammates and raises the team ceiling.
Adding PG only added expectations. PG is another dude who is fool’s gold. Dude isn’t gonna win a ring ever imo. And he also has plenty of mental/physical hurdles that make him an unreliable 2. Both of these players require way too much to go their way in order to win at the highest level IMO
very well said 👏👏👏
he was leading in ppg this last playoffs man what u mean not when it matters 😭😭
@@mortal5636 we gonna ignore his meltdowns in clutch games? Or how the dude always goes down with injury at the worst times? Not saying he ain’t great, bc clearly he’s talented. I just don’t think he’s MVP and his lack of availability coupled with his inability to raise other players ceilings don’t make him a number one option in my eyes. He’s had stacked teams and homeboy can’t even make the conference finals. The proof is in the pudding imo.
@@mortal5636every year besides last year he choked
I’m a sixers fan and I’m sick of him
They gave him Jokic's MVP. History will laugh at the bias of the NBA voters.
Jokic 4 mvps in a row!
and they gave jokic his mvp the year before boohoo

he has never actually won any 2nd round series, more like a 1st round Dynasty lmao
Haha!
@ColdHoops too bad they got rid of him and burnt his picks before we could really see it through
Never forget some of you clowns was saying he was better than jokic
Clowns said he was better than KAT. KAT has been to the WCF. Flopping Embiid can't even get there in the LEast.
Nobody that knows anything about basketball and lives outside of Philly believed that Embiid was better than Jokic.
jokic has had more success with his horses than embiid has in the nba lmao
@@gothamlab I think even Joes parents know that Jokic is better
How many rings does Joel have...?(I'm WAITING...) Answer:ZERO. Jokic,Giannis & Jayson have 1 ring each. ALL THREE run circles around Joel. KAT & Ant Man would SILENCE Embiid(coach calls timeout to sit Embiid down & sub for Drummond when Philly is down 12+ points to SAVE him from getting embarrassed!!).AD posters Joel THE MOMENT he has possession on offense.(Joel is getting TRADED for 1st round 2026 picks,SF & center.)
he said he was trolling about not playing back to backs, we all know he was dead ahh serious .... he has no urgency to win at all
Just say ass
@@Book.of.Treason He was being serious
He’s injured
@@Book.of.Treason Trade him next year
@@Walrus286 when you’re injured all the time, you start to question whether the guy is putting in the work stretching and doing joint work in the gym. Look at Wendy, people clown him for stretching and doing things like that. He Ms proved his doubters wrong who said he would have injury issues.
Availability is the bare minimum for an athlete to be a valueable asset. The second you start making excuses like that, you’re cooked. You can feel bad all you want if things happen like they did to d.rose and lots of players. Do they deserve awards for what could’ve been? Embiid cried his way to an mvp.
Nick Nurse is also the same coach who shut out Embiid on the score sheet in a game and made Embiid cry.

@@Sqeaky6969 So you’re adding to his point that Nurse making chop suey out of Embiid in that series is embarrassing, yeah?
@@silversoulken ur acting like nurse was out there guarding embiid himself
I’m a 76ers fan and I agree with Maxey on this one. Embiid might be the “Man” in Philly due to being the face of the team but he doesn’t have any leader qualities. For example when they had Harden on the team and Joel came out and said “Him and James need help” when Maxey was balling out all playoffs and the players who underperformed were Embiid and Harden. I honestly don’t see the 76ers winning a championship if Joel doesn’t jump into the leader role as well as stay healthy.
Unfortunately for you now that he's 30 he probably won't develop into a leader. He is who he is at this point.
Embiid also take terrible care of his body. The man need to hold himself accountable for his lack of work ethic and actually play ball. Free throws and whining can only get you and your team so far
I am not 76ers fan for obvious reasons but I always thought that Maxey is talented and hard working player who cares about the game and him calling out that diva who blames everyone else except himself for his failures just made me like him and respect even more.
@@randalljr17 bro, his "style" of playing is the main reason why his body is falling apart. All those intentional falls (flopping) he has been doing for years are finally catching up with him. He is huge and each of those needless falls are taking huge toll on his knee and that big and heavy body.
Harden played well
None of the new acquisitions matter when their entire season depends on Joel Embiid.
Literally bro who cares who you sign if your best player is never on the court or completely shits the bed in the playoffs
He’s just a selfish player plain and simple. He’s clearly focused on his own personal accolades rather than focusing on a team goal and it was evident the year Jokic won his second MVP and solidified when Embiid finally won because he completely was a non factor in playoff games after, in which he’s the first to blame whichever coach or teammate is on the hot seat at the time. He flops all over the floor and misses extended periods of time now to not play in back to backs, which no matter what you think of his game the record shows the Sixers are better with than without him. It’s bittersweet cause he is a superstar but deep down you know he’s never going to win a ring as the leader because that’s not who he is
I soured on him back in ‘23 when he said that him and Harden couldn’t win by themselves. Pitiful leader.
Especially when Embiid played like crap. His teammates could say the same thing.
Couldn't win by themselves while Maxey was out there saving their asses. What a joke of a man.
especially when both of them played terrible in game 7 vs a guy who a lot of people like to criticize (jayson tatum) that dropped 51 plus points.
You can't win a championship if Harden is on your team.
I'm a Nuggets fan and Embiid hater, but that quote was taken out of context. Embiid was asked about him and Harden by the media I think, and he said that's a team game, and that people act it's only him and Harden out there, and he said "we can't just win by ourselves", it's a team sport, he was shouting out all his teammates. Yet people take it out of context
Never forget that Embiid literally cried for an MVP and had to have help from Perk to get that MVP by playing the race card. Now that he has MVP expectations, he all of a sudden can't handle it. You reap what you sow.
One of my favorite sports stories is told by Stephen Jackson. Captain Jack talked about when he came in to San Antonio. Pop was screaming at Tim Duncan and Timmy just accepted it and tried again. Jackson said "if Timmy's going to take it, who am I to argue?"
That's what Shaq and Kobe were talking about it. Your best player should be your hardest worker, most accepting of coaching, and most ready to play. If he isn't, your team will not be great.
Kobe is not a leader. He is an overrated criminal who should have gone to prison.
@@toadvine7952 Real tough guy slandering a dead man
@@ADUSN I'm saying facts about Kobe based on the things he said to police. He then used his wealth to get away with a horrible crime. If you weren't in love with him and a jock sniffer you'd understand what a garbage person he is. You are human garbage to defend him.
Stephen Jackson isn't one to talk lol
@@toadvine7952prison for what? Charges that were dropped?
This is why his comparisons to Kawhi are blasphemous for me
Kawhi proved he can be the best player in the league and is proven champion compared to Embiid who in my eyes should be compared to Harden but more injury prone
yeah but i don't think either is going to help you win a championship purely based on availability
Don't compare this guy to harden man. Prime harden got super close to a ring in 2018, Embiid just chokes consistently throughout all these years, not even showing flashes that he could do damage in the playoffs. If he couldn't win with prime Ben, JJ Reddick and Jimmy Butler, he won't win with nobody
@@phamlong4210 saying that it was close is maybe only true on paper, but the way they played it was pretty obvious that the rockets weren’t gonna win the finals
@@slightexagHis point is that Kawhi already proved he could be the best player on a title team. When Kawhi is available, he still cooks in the playoffs. Embiid had one 50 point game last year and a game winning three two years ago, and that's been about it. The fact that he's yet to make the conference final is just uproarious.
@@inferno4165 I'm sorry I refuse to believe Lebron can beat that rockets team. Willing to bet big money on it.
Why does PG always get a pass he’s been a max player since Indianapolis and never gets it done but everyone gets the blame on his teams but him. 😂
I don't think most people actually consider PG a superstar
He was sick before the injury. Its honestly a miracle he could play at a high level after that.
He's been 2nd or 3rd fiddle since then
@@gamble777888 he’s a max player

@@kaysheye7784and that’s the problem
@@kaysheye7784its February 2025 and Embiid is still a fraud and soft.
At least Embiid makes the NBA media look like a joke with their terrible MVP pick. Only reason they picked Embiid is because they did not want to give it to Jokic 3 times in a row.
Jokic did win an MVP that year, the finals, but yeah he should have 4 straight
the thing about the joker, he'll make everyone better ..... if tobias harris played in denver,he probably won't become a disaster with that huge contract,bcuz the joker will put him a good situation where he can score & as long as he ain't lazy & runs with him, he'll get some shots ..... 😂🤣😂🤣-🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
they did it because the race card got played and pushed him over the edge of jokic
And Jokic didn’t give a sht about losing. The only place he cares about winning is on the court.
@@sblumenstein6688 yea but it's not just about Jokic. It is about how professionals should be professional in their judgements of players.
NBA teams need to stop giving guys 34+years old, a 4-year contract. Not every player can be LBJ. Giving a guy in his mid-30's a 4 year deal is a death sentence. Let this be valuable lesson.
@@JigsawBell lebron never signed a 4 year deal
name 5 other +34yr olds that are on 4yr contracts right now. where do people come up with the nerve to just spout absolute nonsense. oh “his clothes are blue so thats why we need to put our pants on “
Facts. They really can’t see the writing on the wall. They should have load up on depth instead to make a run and knowing Embiid needs to rest a lot.
Philly had the cap space and thought by signing PG to a max 4 year deal will be a huge boost. But PG has been struggling to be healthy. And their franchise player is injury prone.
He's not 34
@@nickpagano7134 Thick as a spanner aren't ya lad?
I'll keep saying it until it catches on. You are not a Superstar until you show you can be the best player on a championship team. You can be a hall of famer without ever being a Superstar. The Superstar label should be sacred.
Lol so kobe wasn’t a superstar in 01 and 02? He was 1A 1B with shaq so what are thoughts on those circumstances what about ky in 2016? Who was outplaying the unanimous MVP?
@@0vern9KWell said
So Luka isn’t a Superstar, but Jalen Brown is?…Okay
@@atraina6921bro nobody said that Luka wasn’t a superstar, he 100% is 😂
Some of yall missing the point. Players can have superstar like stats or even seasons but until you show some tangibles (high performance longevity, championships, MVPs, etc) then you're merely a superstar calibur player. Russ has no rings but his consistency, record breaking seasons, and MVP made him a superstar. And even that can be debated.
I agree to be considered a SUPERSTAR should only be a small handful of elite players each generation
Personally I'd consider Luka a Superstar but someone most definitely can make the argument he's not. Then you have players like KD, Bron, Joker, Steph, Kawhi, Giannis, etc who are inarguably SUPERSTARS
I started watching the NBA at the start of 22/23 season and I realised Embiid was a bum when he said "I can't win alone! James and I can't win alone!"
His MVP award and Olympic gold medal are empty stats in his CV.
Can't believe the US has 75 years of NBA and still consider guys like Embiid great players...
It’s crazy because he “trolls” (his words not mine) his own fanbase and other fanbases on purpose and leads Philly on or taunts other teams and then he is surprised when he isn’t liked. He needs to learn his actions have consequences fr I obviously don’t advocate for sending hate his way or what that one reporter said, that was a step too far, but he needs to back up what he’s saying and lock in before it becomes another James Harden situation in Philly
Just think about that mindset. "Trolling other teams and fans". Is that what you want you're team leader to be doing?. He's dog water.
"Oh, you're a star all right, just not a SUPER one"
"Really? What's the difference?"
*"PARTICIPATION"*
I recognize that reference!
It's funny how "the process" has got us two of the most entitled "superstars" in NBA history, in Embiid and Simmons. Maybe announcing beforehand to a bunch of young guys that they're going to be getting max contracts for the next 10 years no matter what isn't the best for their development
Simmons was never a superstar and isn't really entitled the dude has nerve damage in his back. He never really acts any sort of way when it comes to basketball. Ur only saying that cus of his contract and how he didn't wanna be on the sixers after the whole team threw him under the bus when embiid was getting dominated by Clint Capela and John Collins
@@Sqeaky6969 I would even go as far as saying that Embiid (and Doc Rivers... don't get me started) are the reason for the Ben Simmons' downfall. We all know what Embiid said about Ben on national TV - we can only imagine what Ben had to listen to during training. For someone with the mental issues Simmons has shown to have, this is not an environment to thrive in (playing in Philly probably didn't help either).
Embiid then went on to do the same with Harden and Maxey like a year later.
@@felixhaag1335 You nailed it. Loser idiot coach and loser fake superstar blamed their failures on Simmons. True stars don't do that.
@@toadvine7952 Simmons is a joke.
@@Jutrzen Embiid is a joke. Simmons was potentially an elite player that Embiid and Doc ruined to avoid accountability.
Crazy thing is that everybody swore this was AD when he had his injuries which was never true 🤣💯
Exactly and nobody listened to me when i said AD only gets injured bc he plays through nic nak injuries and it led to more serious injuries like Achilles strain in 2021 playoffs or groin strains and ankle injuries
@@anubis4032 right and look at AD now
Anyone who said this just didn't watch enough. The most he deserved was being called made of glass. He may have had some issues, mainly not playing Center in the past. But bro at least played when he could.
Blah ..embiid n bronwin ring
AD is def injury-prone but he always stayed in great shape and didn't constantly flop around like a fish, two things Embiid does that contributes to why he's always damn injured.
As a life long Sixers fan every time I heard someone say "Trust the Process" I wanted to barf. The "process" was the greatest basketball franchise "Treason against a Fan Base" every committed. They stole ticket money from the fans for years while they committed sports fraud. And now the Basketball Gods have struck back. The process bore nothing but the Markelle Fultz, Ben Simmons, Tobias Harris failures and now we have Embiid committing the same fraud against the fans along with his own teammates, with Paul George (Tobias Harris 2.0) next to him as an accomplice.
Hey, at least at this rate you guys might get Cooper Flagg!

I think this dynamic is always going to happen with guards vs bigs. A 6'4" guard in the NBA is in the best 20 out of 10s of millions other players. A 7' center is in the best 20 out of a few thousand other potentials. Any NBA guard is an elite athlete, smartest player on the court, with an insane work ethic. The big just has to be big.
Embiid is quite skilled however but he never shows up when it matters most
Yea Bigs bodies just dont hold up

A 300 pounds flopper …. To move 300 pounds you have to throw heavyweight punches, but we Watch him fall and flop like a cheerleader running an offense as a QB : we need to say anything else ?
People slammed the clippers for letting PG walk but now I’d say they were crazy smart for that move. My opinion PG is overrated and Joel is not an alpha leader. If I’m the Sixers I blow this thing up and build around the young guys. But you probably can’t trade PG with $50m a year so good luck
Joel Embiid is the worst offender of the modern NBA mindset: He wants all the fame and fortune without actually having to work for it.
I’ve never liked embiid but each season he proves himself to be even more unlikable than previously imagined. His game ain’t much to speak about considering he relies on free throws so often. He cries for awards. He never in shape at all which leads to some of the injuries his fanboys in the media love to use as an excuse. He throws his teammates under the bus and lastly but more importantly he stinks it up in the playoffs. He is everything we think of guys like ad kat and kawhi etc are but these dudes have made it farther in the playoffs than him which is ironic since he plays in the east and has the better teams. He is also not the modern day shaq that title goes to giannis
Players like him and kawhi are the reason why I don’t take the NBA seriously anymore

WHY is it always "becoming" and not that he already "became" one. We cutting too much for these guys
At this point it feels like now that he cried his way to a MVP he's content at just existing in the NBA and collecting a oaycheck. With so many of the All-time greats you always felt like winning a MVP was just a nice consulation prize on their way to the ultimate goal.
Crying his way to the MVP? Thats not how it works. He had a legitimate argument, you people acting like he put up 15 ppg or sum

Embiid about to be the worst player to win MVP overtaking Derrick Rose.
D.Rose is way better than him overall compared to this crybaby Embiid.
and he didn't deserve to win MVP
You obviously wasn’t watching the league at that time. It was given to D rose because Lebron was hated for going to Miami but D rose was HIM. Lead his team to ECF with luol deng as his second best player. Nobody was upset he won. He probably would’ve had more, injuries just got the best of him.
@@ray1992507 He just means worst as in accomplished the least. Even D Rose got to the ECF like you said compared to this legit fraud
Derrick Rose at least had an argument why he should win on that season. It just his career turns out not to live up his MVP season. Embiid won because league don't want Jokic or Giannis to win for the third time even using racism to downplay Jokic. They even purposely don't talk about Giannis just to build argument why Embiid deserved it
I think someone like Embiid is a perfect example of how "less involved" or more "casual" nba fans sometimes just have better takes. Like we are all gonna look back at Embiids career and be like "yeah he didnt really add anything to the NBA, didn't really do much, and his MVP is only bc of voter fatigue." Lets be honest, if you played basketball in the east coast for the last 3 years and you aren't a celtic or jimmy butler, you simply don't matter. Even the knicks are objectively not a good team. Take that team last year, put them on the west coast, they're maybe in the play-in.
Dwight Howard made the finals and carried that team on his back. He was a bit immature and not the best big man ever, but he is very disrespected. Embiid is a clown. A 7 for clown making 60 million dollars a year and set them back 10 years into thr laughing stock of the nba
Every time Embiid is brought up, there still seems to be a selection of fans trying to stand for him. He progressively gets worse every month and their take every time is "feel bad for the guy" bc of injuries and narratives. Too. Freakin. Bad. The guy's good at basketball and that's about the only thing he has going for him in the public eye. I honestly hope the 6ers never win a thing with this dude on the team.
I’m loving all these uploads
this guy only survived in the nba as a "superstar" because of the ref help, the way philly fans and the nba have acted like it's anything else was always bullshit, it's painfully obvious if you actually watch the game, then you have youtubers like bballbreakdown saying he is a genius offensively because he jumps awkwardly or early or off the wrong leg when he drives, so much bullshit to justify this guy's game
A superstar worse than LBJ???

The parallel between Ebiid and Maxey and Shaq and Kobe is spot fucking on.
Let's be real. If Embiid and the Sixers made it to a Finals they'd be swept. Embiid would be a no show with the lights too bright, and every postgame presser would be Embiid throwing Maxey under the bus.
Embaby. Love your take and video!! I followed my team for too long... and see them fail time after time... Air Maxey and McCain is the new movement.
I love seeing Philly teams self-implode. It's like a recurring TV show that I never get sick of
First time seeing the channel, great points made. Fire presentation
I hate that he flops alot. Like dude, you are a titan! Just go hard in the paint and guys will be forced to foul you anyway.
He’s just an entitled coward that wants everything to be easy.The NBA does nothing about it.They introduced a new flopping rule a couple seasons back and Embiid has never gotten a single fine.
Stole Jokic's MVP
Kendrick Perkins won him that mvp lmao shits so goofy
Always nice vídeo Bro! You are one of the best nba content creators... But as Spurs fan, I noted how the 2003 MVP TD was not among the guys taking taking the most shots. True Legend
I really like the comparison between Maxey x Embiird and Kobe x Shaq from a dynamics perspective. It's coming to the end of the road for Embiid these next two years unless he steps it up
I actually dont understand this. How does he step it up? Its not his game its his body there's nothing he can do to fix his body at 7'1 280
Man he got paid, he got a gold medal, and clearly now he feels he’s done enough and doesn’t want to play anymore
Great take on this, loved your perspective. Very insightful.
I remember that they said one of the reasons he deserved MVP was "he led the team through the Ben Simmons saga" lmao 🤣🤣☠️☠️ I still get a good laugh out of that one every time
Idk why a lot of people r so high on Embiid hes never made it to the conference finals and he plays terrible in the playoffs
What stands out is the minutes per game for players during Kobe's time. Almost all of those players listed were averaging around 40 minutes per game. Now its all about load management and players missing key games because of how meaningless seeding and home court has become.
Let's be real, hypothetically Embiid wins a chip, he still ain't gonna be respected.
Finally people are starting to see that Joel is no where near Jokic
As being the leader of the team, this is truly pathetic on Joel Embid’s end and he needs to do better. Paul George ain’t slick either, they’re paying him too much money just for him to be a full-time podcaster and a part-time hooper.
It’s hard to believe Embiid is the same guy who cried when he got eliminated at the buzzer
Love when you do the cross generation comparison. Same with the Kobe KD video!
embiid and ben simmons were meant for each other
The fact that everyone has hyped this team up for the last 8 years is crazy to me. They've done literally nothing for that entire time. Their greatest moment is a buzzer beater loss in game 7 of THE SECOND ROUND. They're in the weakest conference and yet they've continuously proven they're incapable of performing at a high level. Phoenix and Dallas have caught way more slander and have accomplished more in a tougher conference. Disgusting that the Sixers were ever in the conversation.
“When I say this I mean it” with the 1Train instrumental in the background 🔥
Embiid isn't as clever as he thinks he is. He can do all the foul baiting and MVP bitching he wants, and it may work for a bit, but rent always comes due. He never shows up when it counts. Every 50, 60,70 point game is against the pistons at home. His MVP came more from a PR narrative than his actual play. His rosters have been more than enough for a title but HE always comes up short. He can't get touched by a guard without toppling over. He ended his own teammates career by flopping.
His defenders protect him because they're the same. They think he's clever and playing the game smarter than everyone, because they'd use the same cheap tactics and blow things out of proportion. Scratch an embiid fan and they send a death threat to your mom, that's the type of person they are. The league is a better place without him in it. Adding a perennial loser like PG was the icing on the cake. Bunch of salty, injured dudes who can't take the blame on the same team, with fans who can't decide if they love or hate them, they all deserve each other
The Kobe/Shaq dynamic was an interesting and insightful way to analyze the Joel Embid situation, a surprisingly apt comparison. You actually took a different angle to the usual Embid criticism
Becoming? He’s been the worst imo
