@@minnuss embiid is carrying the entire team. It’s 4 v5 on offense because Ben isn’t a threat to score so his job becomes even harder. Blaming a loss on embiid when he’s been averaging 30 this series is hilarious considering the second best player on the team who was a number 1 pick is averaging 10pts and shooting 33% from the free throw line for the playoffs.
Most analysts said "Embiid is unstoppable in the paint". But the problem is he doesn't want to spend time to do that. Instead shooting mid-range and 3s. In the 4th quarter, he made 5 attempts...4 of them from the 3 point area. 🤦
If Giannis could lend Ben some of his willingness to take jump shots, and if Ben could lend Giannis some restraint on taking jump shots, they both could benefit greatly lol.
Outside of regular season defensive effort he's only gotten worse across the boards. But people will yet again swear that he dosen't need to shoot and then he'll show us how important a jumper is to winning again rinse repeat. People let him get comfortable where he is which enough to win accolades through popularity but never show up when it counts.
Blaming doc for this is foolish. This is a players league where talent wins coaching isn’t as important as the NFL. If you have hands down the more talented team the players need to step up. Got one max guy scoring 4 pts got another max guy shooting 12/39 on FTs and another max guy going 3-21 in 2 half’s despite being 7’1 275lbs but yea it’s the coaches fault 🙄
i get consistently hitting 3s and jumpers is hard, but for a nba player to sucks at FT this bad?? its not acceptable unless you have a freak muscles like Big Ben, or strong with big hands like Shaq, Howard, Deandre, etc
For a reference Rajon Rondo, who was bad on the three point line, is willing to shoot the 3 pointer when the time has come and improve on it, in order to still have a place in nba now a day.
I agree with Nick Wright on that Embiid is getting punished for pushing through an injury, he's doing everything he can in the first half, and then slows down. Which is fine imo. At that point you're in position to win, (hence the leads), the other players need to step up, including Simmons.

When you spend the first half flopping and trying to foul Clint Capela out, you're probably gonna be tired in the second half. Embiid is a beast when he focuses on playing and not flailing, flopping and theatrics.
Because the only reason they came back the last 2 games is because of poor play from the sixers. Credit to the hawks for taking advantage of their collapse but they won because the sixers shot themselves in the foot
You know I’m thinking about but why aren’t these guys in studio? Literally everyone else is. I’m sort of curious if Brandon works better in a stereo because if he interrupts in a studio is won’t sound so jarring like it is during a zoom call
I think no player could keep up the intensity in which Embid plays over all 4 quarters. The dude burns bright, but fast. Imagine Embid could keep this pace, then he'd average 60 and 30 every game.
If you take the shot like ghiannis knowing he can't shoot you rip him 4 it, if you don't take the shot like Ben you rip him for that too. It can't be both ways. Don't shoot if you can't shoot, it's up to coach to position him on offense
Too bad don't have lowry. Lowry would level this whole team up. Lowry really gets bigs going too would be scary with Embiid he would get him so many free baskets.
