I don’t know what happened between this season and last, but Embiid is a different player. He was always great but raw. This year he has matured and it shows. He might go down as one of the best athletes in Philadelphia sports by the time he’s done

Probably the most incredible jumpshot development ever.
Guy is 7'2" 300 lbs and didnt pick up a ball until he was 15 and yet is shooting as well as any volume scoring C in history.
It isnt talked about enough.

Parrish + Dirk = Jo.

He committed himself to conditioning. That is the biggest reason. He did what he needed to do and now we see how big a deal it has been. Need Simmons to commit to excellence as well at some point....sooner rather than later. Playoffs will be telling ..whether he breaks out and does so consistently like Embiid has done for most of his MVP season.

So they are saying the Nets are being tactical not playing their stars like Durant against the Sixers in any of the games thus far this season. We'll see I guess how that works or doesn't work for them in the playoffs.

Meanwhile the sixers get the side eye for resting Embiid

When the nets do it it's "tactical"

'Tactical.' More like ESPN/NBA expects the refs to 'frame' the game to keep it close.
DeAndre's corpse fouling Jo on every postup with silent whistles is obvious

Hopefully Embiid's knee is ok ...seems he is battling through the soreness. Start resting him and get "tactical."
