Nobody is stopping him from going into the post and calling for the ball. That falls back on him, not the rest of the team

Do you know what a gameplan is? You don't just abandon the gameplan to do your own shyt, that's what gets players yelled at by the coaches and put in the doghouse. It's what Kobe used to do to Phil and Phil would slam him for it constantly.

There's also the point about there being no spacing on the floor with Simmons out there that went over your head. Sure he can go straight to the post and call for the ball and then get double teamed by Simmons man as he provides no threat from the outside.

your right I chose to look at the 76ers game yesterday instead of the Cavs no one is stopping his 7'2 270+ pound ass from going closer to the paint and calling for the ball....He to me seemed like he was hanging out on the perimeter far too much...I understand that is part of his game and I can see if him and Amir/Jahlil are in the game at the same time him floating to the perimeter but he has to establish his dominance inside first...He can draw fouls, be in position to tip the ball out etc if he's closer to the paint...

Maybe Coach Brown will let him know to get his ass into the paint more often...I'd also like to see Markelle run more pick and roll with Simmons/Joel and Rock.

You retarded breh? Like this next level stupid shyt, he wants to be in the most rather than camping out at the 3 point line and you're critiquing him for being at the 3 point line. That's the gameplan because Simmons provides no spacing. He knows he's better in the post and that's why he wants to be there.

Embiid is the one that spent the last couple of years working on his 3-pt shot and keeps shooting them in games you fukking idiot. You out here acting like he's being forced to shoot 3's. If he wants the ball in post, stop trying to be Chandler Frye and get his ass inside. Never quote me again with this dumb ass bullshyt.

I'm saying he's going the wrong way about it. You dont drift around the 3 point line to establish the threat of a post game, it's the other way around. Make them respect you inside, then when they adjust, drift out of the paint and start hitting jumpshots

Remember those days when big men like Shaq, Duncan, and Hakeem stayed close the paint and didn't hover near the 3 point line like they are Ray Allen? Good old days :mjcry:
You say this as if the top five leading scorers currently aren’t pf or centers

Maybe he’s insinuating that the game plan is for Embiid to hang around the 3 pt line? It’d be retarded but it’s possible
