Embiid vs Jokic?

[JA_Carter]

Both have been playing at an MVP level for the last couple of seasons but who do y’all think is the better player?

 

[Controversy]

Joker...improved his def, great scorer, great facilitator, good shooter, unselfish, great rebounder, willing screener

Embiid is nice but misses a lot of games and is not dominant enough in the offs

 

[Jplaya2023]

embeed at his best >> joker at his best

the problem is joel is always sick and injured.

your best ability is availability

This is the closest center comp ive seen in my lifetime. Both these dudes are unbelievable. Both these dudes are in their absolute primes. Both these dudes bring it every night. These dudes are also 2 of the most offensively skilled bigman to ever play the game. Its crazy because these dudes are elite in multiple categories. The difference for me is Joker is the GOAT playmaker from the center position....but Embiid has improved so drastically from a playmaker standpoint that its wild...nikka averages like 5 assists and is starting orchestrate the whole damn offense now. But then you could say the same for Jokic defensively....this dude went from plodding sloth to legit all nba defense candidate this year. This is hard as shyt. I think i'd take Jokic slightly overall but in a game 7 gimme Embiid. He'll dominate offensively and defensively and he'll make it hurt way more than jokic cause of his physicality. But at the end of the day Jokic just does a little more a little more efficiently

Joker simply off the fact that he can initiate his team’s offense

 

[Rekkapryde]

Give the Edge to Joker, esp durability.

Both are by far the best 2 centers in a while.

 

[Reggie]

Jokic cause i know he's going to be on the court more often than not.

 

[L $ C]

both unbelievable players man

 

[T.he I.nformant]

Don’t we already have one of these threads?

They’re both amazing

I’m glad Jokic is on my team

 

[HandyWithTheSteel]

Embiid is a 2-way player, Jokic isn’t.

 

[O.iatlhawksfan]

Embiid is a flopper all the heat Trae was getting should have went to Embiid

 

[duncanthetall]

You gotta be available. I’m taking Joker

Its Jokic. Jokic is the best offensive center we've probably ever seen.

Its amazing that the big man is back in the NBA. Jokic, Embiid and Giannis. THey all play big but can do many things on the court.

Going with Embiid. He’s just so dominant from a skilled and physical standpoint.
