Yea. Some of the disobedience stuff, like eating like shyt... i understand to an extent, as you hear that narrative from plenty of athletes (i.e. used to eat like shyt, drink a lot, not take stretching/prep work seriously, etc etc... only to later smarten up with age and experience) but to completely disregard your boot and half ass your rehab... strikes me as a straight lack of passion.

He got hurt in college.... what do you think missing two years of college ball would do to his draft stock. Any time you have the ability to be drafted in the lottery you go no matter what. Seen this story too many times.

This is like finding out your little brother knocked up some random thot or something. Really dissapointed in Embiid.
Embiid, Oden, and Bynum should be having epic matchups

Now the Okafor pick makes all the sense in the world.
That has nothing to do with you handling your business as a professional. If those allegations are true, then that's on Embiid

Expect a kid who was poor in a third world country 2 years before striking it rich to know how to be a professional brehs
Makes perfect sense to me. Rehab sucks. You get antsy. One day of feeling fine, and your ego is inflated to pre injury levels. So you push your limit and get injured again.
It fits well with the story about his diet. He still thinks he's invincible. Shouldn't he feel that way? He's still on an NBA roster. They're still going out of their way to court him. He hasn't bounced from team to team to team. Compared to 4yrs ago, is he not currently in a tremendously better situation?
It's like the blue chip athlete that has to lose their scholarship and play JUCO before they smarten up and turn their life around.

doing the exact opposite of what doctors say you need to do is lack of common sense shyt. Not wearing your walking boot and trying to run and shoot jumpers and dunk the ball when you should wear a walking boot is just

Embiid has no sense of personal responsibility. Something college was supposed to instill in him. How's that one and done rule working out
