It shows how many prisoners of the moment we have on here.

Embiid is better than 2 guys who have carried franchises night in and night out for 5+ years because of one game against Brook Lopez, Larry Nance Jr and Julius Randle :mjlol:

Carried??? Neither of them have done sh1t for 5-7 years in the league.

Its not the offense that gives the confidence of how good embiid is, its his defense. And if you are not going to assume he is going to get a career altering injury, defense doesnt go away for a long time. Shooting 80% from the line and going to line at an unbelievable rate is not going to change. His game is built to be the real deal and not a fad.

His passing really impressed me in that game. Not just the passes he made, but how comfortable he looks making them even though he's spent such little time on the floor. His height and reach give him such an advantage seeing the floor and getting the ball places.

I think he actually has the most room to grow on defense. A lot of what he did was due to his physical advantages, but his instincts there should improve over time too.

I'm terrified that he gonna get hurt again though. :sadcam:

Don’t you jinx it. We’ve seen enough great big men miss way too much time with injuries. shyt even Shaq missed a good 3.5 seasons worth of games from his rookie year through 2005-06 :damn:

Not only that he actually got a bunch of free throws.....:blessed: the bytch ass NBA letting big men actually get calls like these flopping guards and bytch ass 3 point shooters.

Whenever a little guy gets switched in a big and gets punished and they used to call charging :snoop:
