I genuinely did not think he could recover. Very happy to be wrong. I hope he can stay on the floor this season

Seriously, I thought that was it for him, but he’s come back an absolute monster. I love that for him.

His defense is starting to come back as well, he’s had some really awesome blocks in the past few games.

Embiid will never be prime Embiid again but there definitely isn’t 10 centers I’d take today before him, so yeah, it’s good to see him playing well again.

10? Try 2.

Jokic and Wemby easy. If we’re talking with the future in mind there’s maybe 15 I’d rather have

Ordinary-Till-2497

Yeah I agree. Two centers rn

Future in mind, I’d rather have almost every single center in the league lol, at least they won’t cost 67 million in 3-4 years, with this body and injury history. Let’s not forget that everyone including Philly fans were like man can we medically retire this guy, I think even if he miraculously survives this regular season, 4 straight rounds in a playoff setting, no chance

Where do you practice and what’s your specialty? I’m curious where you got all this private medical information about Embiid that allows you to predict his future.

What a dumbass comment, first time seeing people discussing injury prone players? In fact where is your nba contract as a player or a coach to be discussing basketball here buddy, you are not allowed. I have seen dozens of reports about his injury though if you are wondering, I like the part where we are gaslight people that this guy is fully healthy and he will be perfectly fine now lol

You can just admit you’re speaking from ignorance, comments like this just reek of insecurity. By the way, “seen dozens of reports” would only matter if you were functionally literate. I checked your history and you decidedly are not.

Even if you add the when healthy caveat, you’re definitely taking Jokic and Wemby over Embiid. With the when healthy caveat, probably even AD as a playoff riser compared to Embiid being an all time shrinker. Then Sengun, KAT as well. Bam and Chet is probably borderline. If you factor in health there’s more than 10 centers you’d take over Embiid in 2026. I’d take 5-7 centers over him even when healthy in his recent healthy performances.

What is ADs playoff record without lebron btw?

jimboharden13

-5 | 8 hours ago

He averages 30.5-12.7-1.8 in the playoffs without Lebron.

Embiid averages 24.9-10.9-3.

suuushi-roll | 76ers

RECORD

comparing stats from 13 games to 59 lol

jimboharden13

6 | 8 hours ago

Well yeah those are their records lol. AD in 13 games made the conference semi finals where he lost to the greatest team in history, same as farthest Embiid has made in 59 games in a much easier conference playing with multiple future hall of famers, including losing a conference semi final to a team led by a guy who just got traded for a pack of chips and used gum.

you’re insane. the only center over embiid “when healthy” is Jokic. Wemby hasn’t even made the playoffs yet. what a ridiculous comment

ntpbr1

1 | 7 hours ago

I mean what version are we considering here, is he healthy now, because I’d take a lot of guys over current Embiid including Wemby, even with this nice stretch in the last couple of weeks. Prime Embiid, sure

jimboharden13

And Wemby will already match Embiid’s farthest playoffs run this season, not much of a bar to make.

Even in his insane regular season prime Embiid was an all time playoffs shrinker. 2024 to now he’s not even as good of a regular season player as those when he has been healthy, let alone playoffs.

Embiid was an mvp RECENTLY. The only thing derailing him is health, nothing else, so it is no surprise that he is still good lol. He is 31 years old (Soon 32), he still has two, three years of still being elite if they manage him right

I really really really hope he can finish out this season healthy, the fans deserve it but he deserves that the most

Its wild to me how many people were ready to write off a player that is about to start his contract extension. Hes the second highest paid player in the league. Hes good at basketball lol.

Smekledorf1996

I mean, at the time he played poorly and looked terrible

The dude is still dealing with injuries, I wouldn’t pull out the victory parade yet

Hopefully he stays healthy though

How is he healthy when he’s missed half the season?

jamawl | 76ers

11 | 8 hours ago

He’s played 15 of the last 21 games including 7 of 8 games in January only missing one due to a b2b which he won’t play in probably for the rest of his career. I think it’s fair to call him healthy right now. Is any sixers fan delusional enough to think his knee is fixed and he’s gonna continue playing at this pace? Nah but it’s awesome to see him playing 30+ minutes every night again.

DawisTakeover | PHI

5 | 8 hours ago

Okay, then he’s unhealthy and averaging 25 a game and looking better every day. The league better pray he never gets healthy if this is what unhealthy looks like

sorakaisthegoat | Supersonics

Nah bro he’s healthy and gonna miss half the season just because he can.

I think offensively he’s generally looked great more often than not but I think defensively he’s fallen off a cliff

Joel Embiid so far in January - 25.3 PPG on 63.5% TS
