Don't put that guy Embiid in the same convo with Jokic ever again. And James Harden yet again failed to disappoint with that flagrant foul that changed everything 😂
Let's calm down on Jokic. In case you haven't been paying attention, he hasn't won anything either. What if the Nuggets get swept by the Lakers and he averages less than 20? You still going to puffing your chest out over the audacity of a comparison? And I'm not hating on Jokic but anointing him before he wins a title or even plays in a Finals is the same limp dick energy that got Embiid to be as overrated as he is.
Jokic got written out of the MVP race months ago and is about to win this whole damn thing. Congrats to Kendrick Perkins for securing this undeserved MVP trophy for Embiid.
@@sebfrett1005 He very well could this time. I’d sure like to see LeBron and AD win it, but I think this is where their road ends. After starting the season 2-10, and being a 7th seed, I’m okay with that. It’s amazing that they’re in the conference championship.
Agree 100%. Back then the MVP narratives were in favor of Embiid, so he had to protect his MVP chances by dodging Jokic in Denver because he knew he would get demolished. Fun fact, Embiid hasn't played in Denver since November 8 2019, so he's been dodging Jokic for 4 seasons straight. He's not only a fraud MVPity, but a coward. But hey, time to throw someone else under the bus again. 10 years, 0 conference finals for "the best player in the world", but it's always someone else's fault.
10 years? Try counting again. I'm not supporting Embiid here, he's a joke and I don't give a shit about the Sixers. I'm just stanning correct math here 😅
come on bro you are reaching embiid 25.7/11.9/3.5/1.4/2.1 vs jokic' 21.9/8.9/7.4/1.1/1.1 embiid is 5-2 against jokic. it simply isnt a good matchup for the joker but it doesnt mean he isnt a damn beast.
Embiid is a coward and selfish loser who happened to be lucky enough to have natural gifts. For example, he is born and raised in Cameroon, supposedly has humble beginnings(that he seemingly forgot about by acting like an entitled bitch whining and complaining). He would have never been discovered and have the life he does today if it wasn't for a fellow African player Luc Mbah a Moute who actually appreciates his roots and gave back to his community discovering his ass. How does he pay it forward? Oh by getting French citizenship so he can play for them. It's one thing to opt out to preserve his health, but its a whole nother thing to re-up with the freaking colonizer nation. He had an amazing opportunity to inspire not only millions of Cameroonian kids, but all over Africa, and do for these kids what Luc Mbah a Moute did for him back in the day, but instead he sold out.
@@_stavroulakis You know damn* well that is not how it works, it's sooo not how it works that this was the reason they didn't give Jokic the third MVP, they wanted Jokic to win a championship. And even then Jokic's regular season was better than Embiid's anyway.
@@_stavroulakis true... but regular season stats were also massively in joker's favor.... embid had the total points (on way worse efficiency) and blocks... joker had EVERYTHING else... including ridiculous assist totals
Shout out to Kendrick Perkins on giving Embiid his first MVP over Nikola Jokic who basically had a Triple double season, with the craziest PER stats we have ever seen, while holding the #1 seed in a very stacked Western conference. Yea Embiid is definitely deserving of that 😂

@@rickyhrman3204You place way too much faith in Kendrick Perkins. No one in sports media takes that dude seriously. Guy’s an idiot. The odds shifted because Jokic and the Nuggets started coasting while Embiid was doing his domination tour. As a result Jokic lost his triple double and the Sixers finished with a better record. Perkins didn’t even vote for Embiid anyways.
I remembered Joel Embiid a few years mentioned that he felt he was a better player than Jokic. I don't have a problem with any player having confidence. But sometimes I believe the MVP is an overrated award. I did not like the offensive sets of the Sixers in games 6 & 7. They should have focused on the perimeter/wing players. I'm not going to say anything negative about James Harden, the guy helped the Sixers win two games. I blame the coaching for the Sixers losing. The Sixers totally went away from what they accomplished in game 5. They should have won the series. But I give major props to Jason Tatum. The superstar stepped up at the right time.
When the 76ers started their process lebron was in the heat, won a ring left for Cleveland. The heat starts a rebuild, has a farewell tour for dwade, rebuild again and went to the finals and 2 conference finals 2 more times in the 10 years of the process.
Embiid is but a free throw merchant. The usual suspects media framed his whole MVP candidacy on Joker's shoulders. Every time they tried promoting Embiid's mvp candidacy, they did so by speaking about Jokic's greatness & would then insert Embiid's name in the conversation, hoping to associate "Embiid" with the greatness that Jokic has been showcasing for 3 years straight.
Meanwhile, Joker just causally AVERAGED a 30+ PPG+ triple-double with way above 50% shooting, including a Gm4 where he dropped 53 on 66% shooting. He really only shot kind of badly in Gm1, and even then he went 9/21.
Steph Curry, a lifetime 47% shooter, had a 52% game 7 against the kings where he put up 50 points. It's honestly stunning to see an NBA Center have that stat next to his name. Check out Denver's box scores and see what Jokic has averaged
As a sixer fan, this was the cherry on top! The effort i seen yesterday was beyond pathetic! Philly fans honestly dont care if you lose, we care about EFFORT and ACCOUNTABILITY!! Which they had none of.. i guess embiid reached his personal goal for MVP so nothing else matters.. iverson would of dropped 40 on 2 sprained ankles in that situation.

Honestly on Hardens defense he dropped 40 twice to win them two games while embiid didn’t have a great mvp performance and basically didn’t win philly a game because of his play
@@tj5180 He got carried in game 4 as well. Regardless of his stats you could visibly see he was scared of Al Horford and PJ tucker was getting pissed off with Embiid. In end they got bailed out by Harden. Embiid literally did not have a single strong game in the series, and the few wins they did get were because they got saved by Harden game winners are dropping 40+. Actual joke of an MVP
I agree with you. I mean, he had bad games but at least he won 2 games and had an acceptable game. He has no excuse for game 6 and 7 but he was a part of keeping the team alive during the series. I'm blaming Embiid for this one
Embiid, Harden, Rivers - the trifecta of tragedy I'll agree the lion's share of the blame goes to Embiid. This guy got voted MVP and not only was he not the leading scorer for his team in a chance to advance to the conference finals he wasn't even the SECOND leading scorer. His body language and attitude after the game doesn't sit right either
I can understand taking an injury into account as a reason for failure but it’s a different thing when he gets injured every year. That can’t keep being a crutch. Giannis missed 3 games with injury, had 38/20 in an elimination game 5 which they lost and we all agreed he didn’t play well enough.
When I saw he said he can't do it with just him and James I was like damnnn tyree Maxey must feel real jaded by that . Dude had a hell of a season and certainly wasn't the reason they lost.
That quote is so out of context. Joel and Tyrese are like brothers. If he was really shading his teammates, you'll be seeing different body language between them next year, which has been nothing but positive historically. When Joel said that he was talking about getting the other players more involved, but for some reason everyone has to automatically assume the most negative interpretation of what he said.
@@greeneggsandham91But, it doesn’t translate on what he did in Elimination games, dude just straight out tapped out mentally after that game 6 loss and his piss poor performance says otherwise. 🫠
Nah bruvvv , it wasn’t all Ben Simmons . It was all Embiitch then too 😂 , can we all finally see how toxic Philly really is and that it did mess up Ben Simmons ?!?!?
The Sixers rebuild by not only losing intentionally, but by making it their culture. The Celtics rebuild by making trades and off-season moves, while maintaining a respectable record and making the playoffs a few times.
The difference between Jokic and Embiid is, Jokic didnt care about the award, he never called himself the best player in the world, and never threw his teammates under the bus after a loss. He is a leader of a team, and Joel isnt, and thats ok, not everyone can be a leader. Joel still can be the best player on a championship team, but he needs to focus more on winning, than his personaly stats and accolades.
Do you see his elimination game stats? He can’t be the best player he has to be #2 that way if he folds #1 can cover up for the slack. That’s why butler was his best teammate and dumbass Philly let him go
76ers Playoff Record this season without Joel Embiid against Boston in the playoffs: 1-0. 76ers Playoff record against Boston with Joel Embiid the supposed “MVP”.: 2-4!!🤦♂️🤦♂️ Yeah, he was never all that valuable, after all. Lol.
@@ibrahim-sj2crwe watched and it was horrendous performance for Joe-L especially that Game 6 and Game 7 meltdown. Talk about getting owned by 37 Year old Al Horford. 🫠
@@KC-lg8qf they seem to be actual friends off the court. It's not that hard to go to ownership and vouch for a former MVP, specially for one he knows on a personal level.
to be fair that Rockets team would crush the Celtics because they were dominating the Warriors until CP3 got injured and they had great wing defenders and Clint Capela in the middle with six man of the year, Eric Gordon off the bench
I was rooting for them so hard yesterday. And the only thing i could think was, like are they doing this on purpose i mean wtf. I think doc could have possible saved himself if we would have just benched harden. Then it would have looked like he tried something when it wasnt working.
*TANKED* for a decade, got tons of top picks & #1 overall picks, then calling it *"ThE PrOcCeSs"* only to fail, *OVER AND OVER AGAIN* PROCESS = BAD KARMA ☠️ Philly is one of those teams that make the East look pathetic!
are you dumb bro was already one of the most slandered especially after the mvp and now after this performance he’s getting shit on by everyone do u live under a rock😂😂😂
The moment Embid and Doc threw Ben Simmons under the bus, that was the moment we saw the true problem in Philly. LEADERSHIP..... primarily Embid's leadership, he can't help anyone get better because he's focused on himself.... i said when everyone focused on Simmons, "this is not going to end well for the 76ers"
the thing with rivers is, he's not just overrated and not top 10 all time because he hasn't won enough, with him it's because he's done so many things that indicate BAD coaching. he has screwed up so many times compared to other coaches, it's not just his lack of playoff performance.
Well, at least he never fooled me. I said it right after the Atlanta Hawk series. When everyone was ocuppied destroying Ben which he deserved. I said the sixers have a big problem, because Embiid is not the player they thought he was, but seems that until yesterday they discovered that they don't have that number one guy who can take them to a championship or at least get pass the second round.
Thank you bro, FINALLY someone to say how it is. It's crazy how nobody in the media criticise Embiid's previous playoff performances, the dude's been choking for years now, but always went under the radar, cause he blames someone else. I get the feeling that everybody protects him for some reason, while players around him are being criticised all the time.
@@VitorGSM Y’all are more Dramatic than Woman I swear lol. Losing to a Good Celtics team in 7 is nothing to be ashamed about.. The only teams who should be ashamed are the Bucks and the Cavaliers
The fact that people put Doc Rivers over Erik Spoelstra as the better coach will always confuse me. 😅 Eric gives it his all every season with the Heat and has stuck to it with the Lebron team and now the Jimmy Butler team. Massive respect to the Heat and Eric for making it this far, again. I will be shocked if Doc Rivers does not get fired with the recent trend of head coaches being fired from playoff teams.
As soon as we lost game 6, I had a bad feeling. Told my buddies that I feel a blowout coming and whaddaya know smh A LOT of changes need to happen. Doc, Elton Brand, Daryl Morey, Harden, Embiid, I'm not sure if anyone is safe
For a single game I'm still taking bron as the best in the world, only difference between him now and 10 years ago is his recovery. That's why the bubble helped so much.
Embiid has always found someone else to blame for their losses and the media never put it on him. It was always "someone else's" fault. They don't keep the same energy for Embiid OR Harden that they had for Ben Simmons or Julius Randle and Randle ALWAYS plays his heart out regardless on if he has an off-shooting night. Embiid on the other hand just doesn't show up and plays passive or without the effort he showed during the season.
I said this soon as the news of him coming back from injury came out they were sayin dude was only 10% of himself. Said dude should just sit out and let injury be his excuse. Cause like Uncle Shannon said "if you touch the floor i dont wanna hear no hurt excuses "
Great work on this. I love your passion on this. I've always hoped for more from Harden on the 76ers but, like you said, he's not able to bring that consistency when the situation is toughest. We should all have known better and this was cathartic for me.
I've not been a long time fan of the NBA, but as long as I've been watching, the regular season MVP doesn't mean jack. It's finals MVP that matters imo. And of course it's Jokic that loses out on it the year they'll most probably win. Absolutely hilarious
Embiid just chases regular season accolades. Stat pads against the worst teams in the NBA, sits out the important games then chokes in playoffs. But every year people see his numbers and act like hes the best player in the league.
Love your content bro! I just want to add one more reason why embiid and especially harden choke: They heavily depend on draw fouls/flopping, most commonly in late clock situations when they don't look to score but to draw a foul.
Few years ago, Seth curry (still with dallas) defended Embiid on a switch. They're in thw right elbow, a few feet away from the basket. Seth planted his body and prepared to receive a hard push towards the basket. Embiid, then surveyed the floor, and did a step back fade away....againts Seth, a feather weight guard. Seth just looked at him with surprise in his eyes. It was a very funny play.
I lost all my respect for Joel not because he had a bad playoff performance in Game 7 but the way he threw his team under the bus. I understand on games like that everybody gotta play their part and yes I do agree. But at the same time you the leader of the team you the MVP of the league when the team is not stepping up then you have to step up and take over. And not only that the people who he threw under the bus actually did their part like come on man. Take a stand and be a man
Don't put that guy Embiid in the same convo with Jokic ever again. And James Harden yet again failed to disappoint with that flagrant foul that changed everything 😂
Failed to disappoint?

Embiid fans and voters are in shambles. We all know damn well that the Joker has a better regular season stat-wise, while Emfraud has perkins
Perkins voted for Giannis
@@dufjdh3u87rhhdbhfhd Shih that sounds good and appropriate lmao
2015 Clippers loss to Houston is unforgivable! James Harden was benched that game, and the Rockets came back!
Harden was horrible and the rockets didn't have Patrick beavrly in the series
Corey brewer, josh smith , and somebody else were the ones who led that charge. I member
I think Sixers should have hired McHale instead of Nurse so that bum-ass emfraud can learn how to pound smaller defenders
This was the perfect blend of choking, underachieving expectations,and unserious players and coaches who deserve each other!! Better luck next year!!!
Kobe was right about Harden
what did he said?
Dark Twist: Harden got Kobe killed for that comment.
@@Taylzz That is not funny.
@@fy4072 You spelled Sherlock wrong.
@@bamf6603 that style of play won’t win a championship
Ben Simmons got all the blame for last time rightfully but Joel already had a history of this
Not rightfully. Too many emotions.
Everyone was extremely upset especially the Philadelphia media, so i do agree that Joel dodged a ton of heat
Nah bruvvv , it wasn’t all Ben Simmons . It was all Embiitch then too 😂 , can we all finally see how toxic Philly really is and that it did mess up Ben Simmons ?!?!?
@@beardbuilds5140 i agree but Ben was never the 1 he was the 2 for Joel so Joel was the leader offensively and defensively
even Thybulle said he was more responsible for the game 7 loss and Embiid single handedly lost an earlier close game that series when he shot 4-20
The Sixers rebuild by not only losing intentionally, but by making it their culture. The Celtics rebuild by making trades and off-season moves, while maintaining a respectable record and making the playoffs a few times.
Congratulations to Jokic and the Denver Nuggets on winning the 2023 NBA Title!
The difference between Jokic and Embiid is, Jokic didnt care about the award, he never called himself the best player in the world, and never threw his teammates under the bus after a loss. He is a leader of a team, and Joel isnt, and thats ok, not everyone can be a leader. Joel still can be the best player on a championship team, but he needs to focus more on winning, than his personaly stats and accolades.
Do you see his elimination game stats? He can’t be the best player he has to be #2 that way if he folds #1 can cover up for the slack. That’s why butler was his best teammate and dumbass Philly let him go
Man, Doc just never dissapoints 😂
76ers Playoff Record this season without Joel Embiid against Boston in the playoffs: 1-0.
76ers Playoff record against Boston with Joel Embiid the supposed “MVP”.: 2-4!!🤦♂️🤦♂️
Yeah, he was never all that valuable, after all. Lol.
so you didnt watch any of the games
@@ibrahim-sj2crwe watched and it was horrendous performance for Joe-L especially that Game 6 and Game 7 meltdown. Talk about getting owned by 37 Year old Al Horford. 🫠
This became so much sweeter seeing the Nuggets win it all.
Embiid when he got MVP: "aight Imma head out"
Daryl Morey literally made the rockets 2.0, choking and all
I never understood why Morey waned Harden again.
@@KC-lg8qf they seem to be actual friends off the court. It's not that hard to go to ownership and vouch for a former MVP, specially for one he knows on a personal level.
@@KC-lg8qf their friends
@@tj5180 what does that have to do with winning?
to be fair that Rockets team would crush the Celtics because they were dominating the Warriors until CP3 got injured and they had great wing defenders and Clint Capela in the middle with six man of the year, Eric Gordon off the bench
I feel like one good playoff run the sizers had in the embiid era was butler winning inspite of everyone else just like he’s doing in Miami
"Me and James Harden can't win alone" what an a-hole...
I was rooting for them so hard yesterday. And the only thing i could think was, like are they doing this on purpose i mean wtf. I think doc could have possible saved himself if we would have just benched harden. Then it would have looked like he tried something when it wasnt working.
First of all you should’ve known better to root for that trash 🗑️ team
*TANKED* for a decade, got tons of top picks & #1 overall picks, then calling it *"ThE PrOcCeSs"* only to fail, *OVER AND OVER AGAIN*
PROCESS = BAD KARMA ☠️
Philly is one of those teams that make the East look pathetic!
Will this be the year people finally hold Embiid accountable? Probably not
Wrong
are you dumb bro was already one of the most slandered especially after the mvp and now after this performance he’s getting shit on by everyone do u live under a rock😂😂😂
He'll cry his way out of the accountability.
People will hold embitch accountable but to embitch himself? He wont. He is already blaming his team in that post game interview
I’ll never ever forgive people for saying choker embiid and super choker harden are on the level of shaq and kobe. That’s just unforgivable
If Jokic has the teammates that Embiid has had, he would've been a champ by now.
That 2008 Celtics team might just be the best of all time being able to win with doc 🤣
should've won multiple chips but they doc as their coach lol
@@nakirium9713 it all makes sense now
Doc got carried so hard by his assitants😂
Tom Thibbodeau is the real coach of that team. Doc got carried by him.
Joel Embiid in elimination playoff games averages 22 11 2 with 4.6 turnovers on 38% fg percentage... yikes
The moment Embid and Doc threw Ben Simmons under the bus, that was the moment we saw the true problem in Philly. LEADERSHIP..... primarily Embid's leadership, he can't help anyone get better because he's focused on himself.... i said when everyone focused on Simmons, "this is not going to end well for the 76ers"
the thing with rivers is, he's not just overrated and not top 10 all time because he hasn't won enough, with him it's because he's done so many things that indicate BAD coaching. he has screwed up so many times compared to other coaches, it's not just his lack of playoff performance.
Can we relish for the fact that swish gave us back to back to back days, i appreciate your hard work.
Scoring title has to do with Harden helping Embiid stat padding.
Well, at least he never fooled me. I said it right after the Atlanta Hawk series. When everyone was ocuppied destroying Ben which he deserved. I said the sixers have a big problem, because Embiid is not the player they thought he was, but seems that until yesterday they discovered that they don't have that number one guy who can take them to a championship or at least get pass the second round.
Thank you bro, FINALLY someone to say how it is. It's crazy how nobody in the media criticise Embiid's previous playoff performances, the dude's been choking for years now, but always went under the radar, cause he blames someone else. I get the feeling that everybody protects him for some reason, while players around him are being criticised all the time.
That's what happens when you put 3 all time chokers on the same squad in a franchise known recently for folding when shit gets real
"im not him and can't carry this team" - Joel EmFraud
Great vid you nailed it. I was most surprised though with Embiid throwing his teammates under the bus during the interview!
Fire doc, let harden walk, trade Joel and Harris, restart the process.
Exactly. They need another 5 years of tanking and start over with another round of terrible draft and development decisions.
@@Sinreherwhy? they made it to a game 7 with a team who made the finals last year. U acting like the missed the playoffs
@@rickiejames2 You acting like 10 years of process to bounce in the second round is success
@@rickiejames2 it's the second round of the playoffs bro...
@@VitorGSM Y’all are more Dramatic than Woman I swear lol. Losing to a Good Celtics team in 7 is nothing to be ashamed about.. The only teams who should be ashamed are the Bucks and the Cavaliers
The fact that people put Doc Rivers over Erik Spoelstra as the better coach will always confuse me. 😅 Eric gives it his all every season with the Heat and has stuck to it with the Lebron team and now the Jimmy Butler team. Massive respect to the Heat and Eric for making it this far, again. I will be shocked if Doc Rivers does not get fired with the recent trend of head coaches being fired from playoff teams.
I always felt like Jokic got robbed … the Nuggets would not be in the WCF (again) without him on that team
That blown leads stat for Doc Rivers is 🤯. Like that takes choke artistry to a level that should be impossible.
It’s crazy how much scrutiny the J’s and the Celtics get yet year after year they are top 4 teams and Embid gets so many passes
The Game 7 thing in Toronto is stupid. That was a low-scoring, defensive battle. Jimmy Butler had 16 points. Did he choke too?
As a Sixers fan, no lies were told
9:23 It’s hard to say a coach/team/player “blew” a 2-1 lead. That’s like saying a team blew a 1-0 lead.
Fun fact, trae young has more conference finals appearances then Joel embiid
Embiid won several MVPs:
- crybaby MVP
- race card MVP
- regular season MVP
Jokic is laughing at embiid right now 😂😂😂😂
I appreciate you making videos more often. I’ve missed this. Especially the “I did not wanna make this video” thing.
As soon as we lost game 6, I had a bad feeling. Told my buddies that I feel a blowout coming and whaddaya know smh A LOT of changes need to happen. Doc, Elton Brand, Daryl Morey, Harden, Embiid, I'm not sure if anyone is safe
I swear embiid get away with so much praise compare to jokic even though he never get passed second round
For a single game I'm still taking bron as the best in the world, only difference between him now and 10 years ago is his recovery. That's why the bubble helped so much.
No way
As a Nets fan it kinda brings me joy to see Harden, Durant and Kyrie flame out after these past few seasons
Embiid has always found someone else to blame for their losses and the media never put it on him. It was always "someone else's" fault. They don't keep the same energy for Embiid OR Harden that they had for Ben Simmons or Julius Randle and Randle ALWAYS plays his heart out regardless on if he has an off-shooting night. Embiid on the other hand just doesn't show up and plays passive or without the effort he showed during the season.
This hits more when Nuggets are now in the finals and Jokic gets his first WC Finals MVP xD
Jokic is the real MVP
I said this soon as the news of him coming back from injury came out they were sayin dude was only 10% of himself. Said dude should just sit out and let injury be his excuse. Cause like Uncle Shannon said "if you touch the floor i dont wanna hear no hurt excuses "
Even though they were up 3-2, I was still picking them to lose because Harden, Embid, and Doc all have a history of choking.
Imagine if Chris paul was healthy during that warriors series?
@Matthew Henninger Vonada yeah true but he always gets injured anyway
@@bingo9685 Maybe the three should go back to the clippers for the ultimate 3-0 choke lead.
@@matthewhenningervonada9914 maybe 🤔 , they would be 1st to ever do it
@@bingo9685 Amen!
A basketball ether on your favorite team is calming. Makes me finally at peace for this summer 🥲
Anybody who mentions Embiid in the same convo as Jokic and Giannis instantly don’t have any credit to whatever else they have to say
Lucky the MVP is only a regular season award
The Philly curse is real man😂
Doc rivers is really living off that 2008 ring, he and Kyrie can’t keep getting away with this.
As a Brooklyn Nets fan I'm so proud of the performances put forward by kYriE iRviNg , kEviN dUrAnT , and jAmEs hArDeN for their currant teams. 😅🤣😂
Lmao they made y’all relevant , plus y’all got swept by the same bum ass Philly hahahahahhahahaha
Other teams have 1 underperforming star. Your team fell for it 4 times. (counting Ben Simmons)
Great work on this. I love your passion on this. I've always hoped for more from Harden on the 76ers but, like you said, he's not able to bring that consistency when the situation is toughest. We should all have known better and this was cathartic for me.
Why is Doc Rivers a Top 15 coach like bruh he’s still holding that 08 championship like it’s his whole legacy
It's crazy, and the funniest thing is, after he gets fired from Phillie, the Suns or some other good team is gonna hire him.
@@HowardMoon56 I would so laugh so hard if the suns hire him
no one hired him@@HowardMoon56
What annoys me the most is the fact that Embiid is going to play lightsout to start off the next season, and everybody will hype him up again
We all know embiid won MVP because voters didn’t want to be considered racist😂
Cope
Black people's mad fat white guys clapped them
Black Lives Matter
@@jansmitowiczauthor78 he’s absolutely correct though
@@jansmitowiczauthor78cope for being a deadbeat player and throwing teammates under the bus. Hold him accountable
The 76ers had the greatest chance in 2019. That shot by Kawhi was ridiculous.
I've not been a long time fan of the NBA, but as long as I've been watching, the regular season MVP doesn't mean jack. It's finals MVP that matters imo. And of course it's Jokic that loses out on it the year they'll most probably win. Absolutely hilarious
LeBron has 4 MVP’s
he cried his way to a MVP award this season, he will cry his way to a NBA finals next season...
It’s always a good day when Swish posts
Embiid just chases regular season accolades. Stat pads against the worst teams in the NBA, sits out the important games then chokes in playoffs. But every year people see his numbers and act like hes the best player in the league.
I want joker to win it all just to hope they will stop handing out participation mvp trophies. Best player on best team is literally mvp
Last year the excuse was that there were not enough "dogs" on the team. He got his wish: pj Tucker and melton. Same result
Love your content bro!
I just want to add one more reason why embiid and especially harden choke:
They heavily depend on draw fouls/flopping, most commonly in late clock situations when they don't look to score but to draw a foul.
As a Philly sports fan I honestly thought we were gonna go to the finals and lose there. After we lost game 6 I knew we were cooked.
If Joker go to the finals this year he will be the best big man in the league Period
I mean he already is,dont compare this fraud with Jokic
No way Embitch is better than Jokic😂😂😂😂
Few years ago, Seth curry (still with dallas) defended Embiid on a switch. They're in thw right elbow, a few feet away from the basket. Seth planted his body and prepared to receive a hard push towards the basket.
Embiid, then surveyed the floor, and did a step back fade away....againts Seth, a feather weight guard. Seth just looked at him with surprise in his eyes.
It was a very funny play.
I lost all my respect for Joel not because he had a bad playoff performance in Game 7 but the way he threw his team under the bus. I understand on games like that everybody gotta play their part and yes I do agree. But at the same time you the leader of the team you the MVP of the league when the team is not stepping up then you have to step up and take over. And not only that the people who he threw under the bus actually did their part like come on man. Take a stand and be a man
Embiid is legit the center version of James Harden.
