Make that surgeon a statue
Dr Glashow you the real MVP
I haven’t watched the 76ers games as of recently so I would like to ask a fan of the team. Is EMBIID BACK IS THE PROCESS REALLY PROCESSING ?
He is still not all the way back to peak form. In the first 35 or so games of the 2023-24 season, when he was 36/12/6 with elite defense, that’s his peak. He was at worst the 2nd best player in the league and the sixers were killing everyone when he was on the court.
His defense likely won’t ever get back there or that close. His offense is like 85-90% of the way there. He has played like a top 10 player since the middle of December
This is the every-game-watcher’s take.
His defense (which was generally under rates across major portions of his career) is toast. His offensive skill and strength are just so exceptional he is succeeding in spite of the now obvious physical limitations he’s dealing with.
Embiid isn’t better. He is just really really talented.
When I saw the mvp race those years I understood that mvp was rarely given to the best player.
When they gave it to Embid that year jokic was better but Embid got that cause of Perkins.
Next year when Embid was genuinely the best player in league he lost cause of games requirement.
Just dont take any drugs he gives you
Finished with 11 boards, not 10
My Fat and Washed King
Even when he was “washed” at the start of the season the Sixers were still better with him on court anyway
Maxey especially his efficiency takes a big hit when Embiid is off the floor
Seeing Embiid and Jokic both dropping crazy stat lines is bringing me back to 2023. Missed this shit
I’m really happy for him. Hope he continues to stay healthy.
Can’t believe Bill Simmons said he’d never score 40 again.
He said he would never score 20 again lol
I know I was kidding
Another person this subreddit has got to stop mentioning.
Bill has bad takes, but he’s still the GOAT
Greatest of all trolls. Sure
When can we learn the lesson to not take his bait concerning the lakers or sixers
Still the best Sixer with respect to Maxey
point per minute demon
Monster game from Embild
Every game he’s showing he’s not washed
Embiid scoring 40 and playing 39mins after all those injuries is crazy his doctor deserves a statue outside 76ers arena and outside his house
Drug test incoming?
Best in the world when healthy. Always has been always will be. Problem is that’s rare lol
lol no
We running back this beef in the big 26 thank you god 🙏
How long you give it? We all know how this plays out.
He’s gotta be an all-star. He’s scored more total points than Duren in like a dozen less games
Is Embiid officially back?
Silver, drug test him too
FT king!
This is how I know he’s back. The flairless bitches screaming about FT’s.
Hating an injured man is never cool. Now he is back, we can hate without feeling guilty 🥺
the Pelicans HACKED him today he arguably should’ve had more lol
He was getting hacked, Dork.
Lakers, OKC, or Nuggets fan?
