I think we can comfortably say all this dude cares about is the MVP. Ultimate playoff dropper and his exit interview was very telling.
moaned 3 years for mvp, choked game 7 to go early on holidays
I honestly think he didn't mean to troll with using Giannis example😂
At least Embiitch got given his pity MVP so we don’t have to listen to him cry all off season.
He already made it clear he cares about mvp voting meanwhile harden to his credit was more focused even told his team in game 1.
I agree.
It’s not possible for a player to chase individual achievement AND beat the Celtics!
if Embiid played good they could beat Tatum (who had two horrific games - Tatum is superstar “light”).
A 36 years old center can entirely shut down a prime MVP player. What a joke .
Surely... You mean 'Djoke' 😂😂
@@hagakure222?
Hey now to Horfords credit he played legitimately tight D. Very impressive player at his age. That being said yea you can't be the guy on your team and get shut down in an elimination situation.
I couldn’t tell when he was going up against lebron… so don’t make it about horford being this great defender or something I remember lebron,Kevin Garnett and even joakim Noah giving him the business…just stop it
Are we forgetting the nigga was doubtful for the series in the beginning
Been waiting for an Embiid slander because this dude has gotten multiple passes lol. He shoots 38% in elimination games💀💀
Damn 😂😂😂
And then people try to argue that this guy is a better player then giannis and jokic
😭😭
At least Embiitch got given his pity MVP so we don’t have to listen to him cry all off season.
Dude sucks in the playoffs. He’s a role player in the playoffs
That postgame interview was exactly what I expected from Joel Embiid because he's shown time and time again that he's not built to handle pressure and come in clutch. Instead of taking accountability for his bad play in a crucial Game 7, he says that he AND James "can't win alone" basically throwing the team under the bus. Bruh.....you ain't HIM and the MVP you got is the definition of the "here bruh damn" award.
I bet if he went off in game 7 and he won instead he would be taking all the credit. But when his teammates actually show up and he shits the bed its "we all have to play better". Dude is such a frontrunner loser.
hes the guy who cried after toronto raptors eliminated him and then managed to scored 0 pts on them the season after
I’m a diehard sixers fan that “here bruh damn” award was funny as heck bruh I can’t cap 🤣🤣🤣
He and harden literally had the worst fg% on their team in game 7. Maybe he meant to say "me and harden can't win at all"
How much help can the Sixers have?
Nah Mustard & SWISHOUT on Embiid’s head today 😂
deadass just watched SWISHOUT right before this 🤣
@@Bilaldane Lmao same
Same
Joel Embiid stats when facing elimination, 24 PPG on 39,32 %, 10,67 rebounds, 2,33 assists, 0,67 steals, 2 blocks, 4,67 turnovers, and he has 0-6 record when facing elimination.
Nikola Jokic stats when facing elimination,
26,17 ppg on 52,59 %, 12,08 rebounds, 6,58 asissts, 1 steal, 1,47 blocks, 3,17 turnovers, and his record is 8-4 in elimination games.
I love the part where Jokic haters were fervently disregarding a freaking center averaging 10 goddamn assists and averaging 25ppg on 61% shooting this year. Something that will never in a million years happen again unless Jokic does it.
@@gamble777888 he won an elimination game against Toronto in 2019 and 1 against Atlanta in 2021. No need to make things up
@@dustincrawford3321 are you dumb? Elimination game is when the other team has 3 wins
@@dustincrawford3321 Bruh what are you talking..embiid loat both those games to reach the western conference finals
There's no question Jokic is a tremendous player when the stakes are high.
Thank you bro I’ve been saying this for years Joel Embiid is a FRAUD and I’m from Philly but I’m tired of this we need a player that can actually play with heart and take accountability. I miss AI man that’s Philly mentality right there
Had Jimmy Buckets and chased him out of town.
There will never be another AI. True 1 of 1
@@itsjustacomment454 yea because Jimmy told his punk ass that he's soft & joel started acting like a girl so Jimmy got tf outta there 😂
Should have built around Jimmy. He has that same desperation to win as AI and willingness to endure difficulties
how bout himmy butler, oh wait the front office chose tobias harris over him
It's not just that Embiid completely faltered after winning the MVP award. It was also the constant griping about not winning it, the disrespect towards Jokić about his defense and his lack of playoff success (despite consistently failing to reach the Conference Finals to this day himself), and the lack of accountability he showed multiple times. That makes this much worse.
Jokic made two WCF and Finals today. It's a huge difference between Embitch and jokic as a valuable player..
if Jokic had All-Star and All-NBA players Embid had on his roster or if Jokic even just had a healthy roster all these years, he would already made a dinasty! Just imagine what players Embid has all these years. Simmons, Butler, Harden, Harris, Maxey, Harris, Reddick, Thybulle, etc... Those players have a total of over 60 NBA accolades (All-Star selections and All-NBA defensive and offensive team selections), while Jokic's teammates have exactly 0 NBA accolades all his career!
embiid is a crybaby and consistent choker.
They gave MVP to the choker instead of the Joker. SMH
People can finally stop crying about embiid deserving but not winning mvp. Embiid was never the better player, never the MVP and it shows
@@joemilo2710 Simmons...not really, but I agree with yhour point.
JAYSON TATUM AND JAYLEN BROWN SCORED 76 COMBINED POINTS AGAINST THE 76ERS
CALL IT POETRY
CALL IT LUCK
ALL I KNOW IS
THE SIXERS SUCK
😂😂
On the 10 year anniversary of the Process, lest we forget.
well the celtics lost to an 8th seed so yall apparently suck just as bad 😂😂😂
People using Harden as an excuse is laughable. This is Joel's team, the offense is built solely for him, he won the MVP, Harden is in his mid 30s and has been dealing with lower-body injuries for the last few years so to expect him to carry a team is ridiculous
Harden has won them 2 big road games. Embiid had one 30 point game the entire series against Al Horford lol. If he is who he says he is, MVP, best player in the planet, etc. etc., he shouldn't be laying eggs and throwing bricks against any defense.
@@sb17146 Race Card MVP
Naw, they gave it to him cuz he's a whiny bitch
@@GeronimoPlaz make a wish mvp
you dont know ball and you dont watch the sixers.
no team can win with one player doing well. and the sixers were absolutely dependent on BOTH embiid and harden. harden is the primary ball handler. and some possessions, he is the ONLY player to touch the ball. Sixers cant win without EITHER playing well
Him winning the MVP was race baiting. And the fact that people couldn't see a White guy from Europe winning the MVP three times.
Voters don't get a pass.
Three times *in a row.* You're basically not allowed to win three in a row anymore. Even Michael Jordan didn't win three in a row. People have a lot of reservations over giving any player three straight MVP'S, and in order to force the voters' hand Jokic had to be by far the best player in the league that year. He wasn't. Embiid was keeping up with Jokic, and there was enough of an argument to give it to him.
If joker is the real mvp then joel is the real joke
Yeah I'm sick of all this "playing on one knee" shit. I used to use Embiid's health to justify all the playoff failure, but now I'm pretty sure they've just been frauds the whole time.
I think that in this era, more than ever, there are regular season skillets that translate poorly into the playoffs and teams just have to accept that and make decisions accordingly.
I make hashbrowns on my skillet
I think part of it is their bad luck in running into Boston so many times, a team that matches up extremely well against them
@@mjkittredge it isn’t bad luck lmao. bumbiid is still yet to beat a real team with a superstar type player in a series. he’s a fraud. unless he gets help from a real player that’s actually got dawg in em embiid will never reach the conference finals
bruh they had a starter named PJ Tucker that only scored every 10 games and when he scored it was 3 pts and that was all you got from him. I guarantee when embiid said "we dont have any help" he directly meant that Tucker doesnt score anything and has been the same way all season. How do you win a play off series if your starter cant do what he was signed to do and your coach doesnt see that and make adjustments. Tryna talk all this smack when you dont know the actual facts behind these chokes. Plus the refs are in love with celtics, rolling their eyes at Butler scoring the ball in the series.
@@ItzzShazey ever since Toronto where embiid literally cried like a little girl, he's managed to point the finger at everyone but himself. It's funny because most of those games came down to him guarding the last shot and failing. This year was his biggest choke, scoring 10 ppg below his season average, yet he still pointed the finger at his team. They should name a worst teammate award after him. At least this season he chilled out on hugging Harden after every play.
PJ Tucker has always been a 3 and D player with low FGA per game. Not really his fault he only gets 3 shots a game. Embiid is like a black hole so he rarely passes it back out to all the shooters they have on the team. 2.7apg in the playoffs was weak.
Not a Harden fan at all, but you are the first one that voiced what I've been thinking, people blaming Harden for game 7, when if it wasn't for him, this series would have never gone 7 (games 1 & 4)
He's passive because of Embiid, the dude already proved that he can be the man with those 40 bombs
2 good games don’t make up for the other 5. Bro had more turnovers than field goals in the most important game of the year. He’s at fault
Likely ends up being a sweep.
You can not win with Harden. The man is a loser and massive choke artist.
@@austinjones9171 not more than Embiid. Dude won a game without embiid

How did embiid throw throw everyone under the bus like he stepped up?!
It was either JWill or Keyshawn on the Max Kellerman show that said Embiid can run the offense just like Jokic.
Max laughed out loud. So did I.
I’m pumped to see Solz and Sage cover this one 😂😂
The problem might be in the regular season. False superstars are produced there in large numbers, but they crumble under pressure, fail as leaders and can't adjust their game.
At least Embiitch got given his pity MVP so we don’t have to listen to him cry all off season.
While the MVP is technically only for the regular season, the way in which he won it kind of opened him up to scrutiny in the post season. It really seemed like his winning the MVP was a combination of his whining and Kendrick Perkins race shaming the voters. Right about now the optics are pretty bad.
Did u not see the Celtics series? Bruh he stunk TERRIBLE. Noone cares about perk or the mvp. It's just added fuel rn. Embiid didn't play avg or even close to average. Dude had like 8 turnovers in one game 4 airballs. He STUNK.
The reason the playoffs are mentioned is cause part of the case against Jokic was it's not right to give a guy 3 MVP awards without that player having postseason success.
@@Cardb33if that’s the case tho, Joel didn’t deserve it either
@@MELLOWDRAMA That's what I'm saying. The reason the playoffs are being mentioned for Joel is cause it was the backbone of the argument for Jokic not winning a 3rd straight. Make no mistake if Jokic had won a ring say last year he'd have won the MVP this year with the same stats and all that.
@@Cardb33 ah. My bad
Only reason he won MVP was to kill the race narrative that Kendrick Perkins came up with
Im happy that my Slav brother is getting the respect he deserves
Joel Embiid and James Harden two biggest choke artists in the last 10 years
i have only one word for you.. Chris Paul
And they are coached by Doc Rivers. My God, they need CP0, then they can choke even harder
At least Embiitch got given his pity MVP so we don’t have to listen to him cry all off season.
@@tellurius4951 forgot about CP0
@@DJezdic he didn't deserve it should've went to Giannis or Jokic
I’m a Sixers fan. Former season ticket holder and have seen most games since 1999 when I got comcast in my area. Embiid is 10000% not a #1 option. He never fights for post position, his rebounding is getting worse (both post position and rebounding take effort) and his body language is often terrible. He’s also at least 20 lbs overweight and consistently out of shape. They need to trade him while his value is still high.
Refs aren’t gonna give you 20 free throw attempts a game cause someone slightly grazed your arm while you jump into them.
Embiid doing hesitation pull up jumpers really fooled people into thinking he was a "him"
Joel Embiid’s always been an overrated Star because of how he’s had a History of folding in the Playoffs. For an MVP that Can’t make it past the 2nd of the playoffs to save his life, Joel needs to start blaming himself instead of putting his Team under the bus. Joel Embiid has consistently had way more more than enough help for him to be making these type of excuses about how everyone else didn’t step up, without also blaming himself.
“You can’t Trust the Process without any Progress”!
More than not going past the second round, people will respect him atleast if he gives it his all, but no, he always gives up and chokes horribly. Not sure what to say
Hes been injured in the playoffs
@@daebak7370 ok joel embid, don't be injured next season.
@@poetryofcinema6957 Exactly, compare him to Dame, who hasn't won either, but is respected.
@@shorewall Yeah but Dame even while going down in a series he'll try to fight hard, not seeing that from players like Embiid and harden. KD, even though he tries to form super teams he does give it his all. This playoffs he nearly played all minutes and even when he lost previously with Nets, he played all minutes until the end.
I wouldn't take Embiid over Jokic, despite how hard the media have been pushing everyone to believe that he's better than Jokic.
Been waiting for mustard to eviscerate this man💀
I'd root for you no matter what your skin color was Mustard.. Time to stop looking at each other only for what color we are, and ACTUALLY see each other as the same.....
That was the weakest playoff run/performance by an MVP in over a decade!
Worse than that. EVER.
Joel Embiid is the biggest chocker in the NBA
Chris Paul: Hold my state farm commercial
At least CP was in finals,Joel never got out of 2nd round 😂
Embiid is the worst MVP of all time, no doubt about it.
Even his MVP has asterisks around it, those being his consistent whining for it for like the last three years(and he wasn`t better then either Jokic or Giannis in any of the last three years.) And obviously the famous statement by Kendrick Perkins. Perkins carried the man to his first MVP.
No Embiid cannot win as the first or second option, and i think even as a third option is a stretch.
he seems like a fourth option due to his poor decision making, and high reliance on getting calls so that he can take free throw`s to up his scoring numbers.
Your last statement is just straight up mediocre dude.
I believe he can win as maybe the second option...but definitely first option too. Despite his horrendous performance at Boston...his still an elite player and him and James were sensational during the regular season.
@@andziledlamini4777 He has elite talent, but with role player level decision making. That isn`t a recipe for a superstar, it is closer to being borderline star level. Due to he`s decision making and demand for calls to get free throws he is a mediocre star at best. Also let`s not act like this series against Boston is the only time Embiid has been horrible in the playoffs. So dude get some help with your copium. Embiid ain`t whatever you think he is.
@@thetruth4654 and don't act like Jokic has succeeded in the play-offs too. His about to go against a team thats beaten him in the past before, plus dude is just stat padding throughout this play-offs.
Ngl he's one of the best centers in this generation and quite possibly of all time, so i understand the Joel slander but don't be saying dude isn't a star player or that you can't win with him...when it's evident that he anchors the defensive end on the court...meanwhile your guy let's guys blow right past him.
@@andziledlamini4777 Jokic hasn`t let guys blow past him in the playoffs this season, and yes in comparison to Embiid, Jokic has succeeded his numbers improve in the playoffs(Embiid`s decrease) and Jokic has now reached the conference finals for the second time in four years. Your man Embiid has never made it out of the second round.
and Embiid is more of a statpadder then Jokic is. Embiid gets like 8-10 points from simply free throw`s due to his flopping if he cannot get calls from the refs then he`ll struggle to get more then 20 points. How can you win with a guy that is never healthy, is dependent upon refs to give him free throws, and that has poor decision making skills in the game? Please educate me on "stars." In the past that has succeded with these massive drawbacks.
honestly Embiid fans trying to cover he`s weak ass is honestly kind of sad and pathethic.
@@thetruth4654 who said i was defending him?, as much as I'm a fan of the dude and love him...I was incredibly disappointed by his performance, he should've turn up in game 6 but because they sold that game I knew they'd lose the next one, i was just being optimistic if maybe they'd win by a miracle.
And dude Jokic stat pads hella crazy lol...them triple doubles won't always work, he has weaknesses so don't make him look like he don't. Like I said, he can drop 40 or 50 all he wants, so long as my Lakers win..I'm straight👍🏽.
Stephen curry played through a knee and ankle sprain in 2016, and a MCL sprain during the 2019 finals and people still give him flack for it. No excuses
the best thing about all of this, is that after Embiid + Harden combine for 24 pts in game 7, he's at the podium talking about how they can't win alone, I mean ffs a role player almost outscored the two of them by himself...and I'm not even mentioning the terrible %FG and A/TOV ratio
The fact Embiid gets the ball outside 15 feet is absolutely HILARIOUS to me 🤣
Skip Bayless ''I have never seen a big man with a shooting touch as smooth as Embiid'' xD
@@coops1992 Yah... and his "shooting touch" should be utilized, from 15 feet and in LMFFFAAAOOO
If he's the MVP, marc gasol, Brook Lopez, Al horford and all the players owning his AZz regularly are some goats material.
I mean Marc Gasol is boarderline goat anyway. But yeah, it shouldn't be that way if he's an MVP what a bitch.
Harden kept them in it when Embiid was out. This isn’t his fault. He didn’t play big when Embiid came back because that’s not what he’s supposed to do. He’s supposed to feed the beast, but the beast played like cheeks
This is why I fuck with Mustard! He doesn’t let his own bias, politics or any narratives stop him from being OBJECTIVE and giving everyone the heat when they deserve it! Keep it up bro💪🏼
Its funny to me that people were actually using Jokic's lack of recent playoff success (despite the fact that his second best player was Will Barton) to discredit him, yet you KNOW they wont keep that same energy for Joel. And its a shame, because i do like Joel, but the dude proved this postseason that those 2 MVPs before this year, and the MVP this year rightfully belong to Jokic. "Regular Season Award" be damned.
As an African myself Yung Mustard, i was incredibly disappointed in Embiids performance. I don't know if maybe that knee injury was holding him back or whatever but dude was just playing like he didn't want it.
I'm not a fan of either teams but I love Embiid and the journey he went through just to make it to the league and that's inspirational af.
But overall, i was rooting for him to excel in this game, even though I knew Celtics would win...I was pretty optimistic on sixers pulling of a miracle for the first time in 22 years.
Joel has been injured every playoffs it’s just kinda who he is not hating but can’t really use it as an excuse
Im not African but i wish Embiid had the same love for yall Africans as yall do for him. His frontrunning ass signed up to play for France when he was born and raised in Cameroon. Dude aint got no spine nor loyalty.
You know why he's always injured? Dude likes playing fast and loves flopping always falling down. A big guy like that can't be falling off his ass every time he drives. I honestly believe it's the reason why his knees aren't holding up.
What journey? Lol being 7ft, it’s fairly easy to at least get a look
@@HiQuis his background, where he came from...cause most African born people never make it to the big stage, no matter how talented they are in these typa sports.
You wouldn't know since you've never experienced struggle but overall its inspiring for other Africans.
Just a few weeks ago, Embid was "MVP." We all know it's a pity award. Jokic should have been MVP by miles.
"All I'm sayin' Embiid is you should change your middle name from "Hans" to "Bitches". That's all I'm tryna say. No disrespect."

No excuses for Embiid and Harden.
Been waiting for this
Revoke MVP
Jokic Real MVP!
Must be nice to be a race that can say they openly support their own race without being canceled. I hope I can be like that one day.
That can't be the case as long as James Harden exists.
And Durant, he doesn’t even have a ring to his name just like harden
@@calving7215 not only that has 2 rings, but both of those years he was MVP of the ginals.
Once you have Embiid, Doc, and Harden on one team you’re definitely not making it far in the playoffs
Facts
I will never get over this guy getting his consolidation prize in form of the MVP award, and the hypocrite judges stealing it away from what should have been Joker's third in a row...
Tatum literally dog walk’d Embiid and the 76ers in Game 7.
Thank you for putting this up because Philly fans need to see this
I think it could be that Embiid partially lost motivation because all he cares about was the MVP, so he has achieved his goal. All that nonsense about team success and making his teammates better is of no interest to him. As long he is the MVP.
That's not really true, he is hungry for a ring he just physically can't get one. Cuz he gets non stop free throws during the season. And every post season the NBA tries to let them play without calling constant fouls. So embiids nightly damn near 20 he gets during the regular season pretty much vanish. Making him a far worse player. Is someone really a beast who mostly is scor8ng on free throws?
76ers are oblivious to the concept of character. Rivers, Simmons, Embiid. With just one of these guys is enough to ruin your chances to a championship, let along having stuck with 3 for so long.
One of the weekest MVPs ever... Jokić robbed hard af ... I mean these clowny preformances in play off-s are unheared of from MVP...
Everyone on the sixers should be pissed at embiid and harden for being pass the blame losers. Pass the ball not the blame. 😂
Harden didn’t though, he accepted it.
@Naaman Rivera he clearly stated he needed help all while sucking in the biggest game of his career. pass the ball no pass the blame yes.
Sorry for edits I am bad at English.
Fossil Al Horford got me rollin' LOL
Tim Duncan vs Karl Malone
Nikola Jokic vs Joel Embiid
Same thing.
I'm from philly n been saying he's a choke artist for YEARS
Nah him and harden rely too much on drawing fouls rather than looking for a shot and you could see it in ydays game clear as day
"Especially as an African brother myself I'm always gonna root for my fellow Africans." Imagine a white commentator saying such a thing!

Two stats that SCREAMED Jokic as MVP. Jokic 38.3 3FG, 9.8 Assists : Embiid 33.3 3FG, 4.2 Assists.
Swishout and Young Mustard were on that timing to today for Joel Embiid
“Unfortunately I have to be objective”
His avg drop 8 to 10 points from regular season to playoffs
There is one thing that people tend to forget about when they're looking at postseason scoring and rebounding of specific players. You have to keep in mind that they are playing the best teams in their conference so you might expect that they're shooting percentages would go down as would their other offensive category numbers. Boston can play some pretty good defense at times so they would be trying to make sure that embiid wasn't killing them. Obviously that stretch at the end of game seven was unexplainable but why weren't they getting him the ball? Also why wasn't he calling a timeout and getting at the team to get him the ball which is something you might expect somebody in his position to do? Harden Embiid. It's kind of hard to know why Joelle doesn't just take it over at the end of the game with his physical dominance but over and over he seems to fade when it matters. Jokic had to play without his best players last year and finally won it all when he finally had a whole team around him.Embiid doesn't have an excuse this year because everybody was healthy.
Jok % shoting wise went down but he also attempted more shots per game in the post season scored avrage went by 7 points
I was waiting on this lol
I've never seen an mvp play so poorly in thee postseason since Russ. The case can be made that Joel embiid playstyle is affecting Harden and the rest of the team
There’s no case to be made, it’s the way it is. The Sixers have a better record without Embiid than with him, and Harden puts up 40 to clutch a game without him in. Their offense doesn’t flow with Embiid on the court because he simply cannot playmake.
Bro, skip and other talking heads were talking about how great Embiid was while the 76ers were making that Celtics series interesting, and right when they lost they were talking about how he was injured and that they’ll give him an excuse, like lmaoo what??
I am interested in an detailed analysis that what is the difference of his play in regular season vs playoff. Why his similar move or play does not work in playoff and any defensive adjustment cause his poor performance. I mean there must be some reasons for his consistant playoff drop off.
Because is the playoffs there’s more games against he same opponents so the adjustments make him a one trick pony
He doesn't get as much FT and rim shrinks for him for some reason.
They double/triple team him and since they always have him sharing the court with someone who can't shoot (Ben, Matisse, PJ), it turns into a game of 4 on 5. He also gets hurt come playoff time because he burns himself out doing too much in the regular season.
I've seen this ish from James Harden when he was here in Houston
Idk how you can say he is the biggest choker when he is teammates with Harden😂
Great Video. Embid gotta really think about this loss and why it happened. He said him and Harden can't do it alone, which makes me think he doesnt even realize why they lost. Embid played with low energy and didnt play with the force and aggression that a man his size and skill should play with. The biggest man on the court by far and he settles for nothing but fallback midrange jumpers with Al hanging right up in his grill? That ain't it. I do think Doc does have to take some blame for failing to adjust to the Celtics going big and playing Horford and Rob Williams together. Doc stuck with PJTucker and although Tucker made some 3s in the first quarter of game 7, he isnt a guy that makes you guard him at the corner three. Tucker was assigned to Rob Williams by Mazulla to basically let Rob camp near the paint and deter Embid from even trying to get to the rim. It wasnt just Al Horford locking him up, it was Al Horford knowing he only had to worry about Embid midrange jumpers knowing Rob had his back. If doc had put in a shooter who commands respect, Rob Williams couldnt have committed to Embid with basically a 2 level double team. Doc could have taken some pressure off Embid who was becoming very predictable being forced into contested mid range shots. The celtics made adjustments in the close out games this series, the sixers made no adjustments and got smoked in the 3rd quarter by Tatum catching fire. They probably would have lost no matter what with Tatum just going off like that, but their offense scored 10 points in the 3rd. I think it was the sixers becoming very predictable and the celtics defense just playing with confidence in their game plan. The sixers got so few shots that weren't heavily contested and they started to look like the whole team was having a collective panic attack not knowing what to do. Embid or Harden never got fired up on the sideline or tried to inspire the team either. It was two dejected leaders showing their teammated that they didnt believe they could win.
Joel Embiid and the 76ers are the basketball equivalent to Harry Kane and Tottenham in football/soccer 😂
now Jokic led his team to the ring.
Always a pleasure to watch Yung Mustard's videos!
Don't forget that Embiid is also a disgraceful flopper.
iam a simple man i see a video with the keywords embiid and choker and i watch it. xD
5:07 It didn’t look like a backcourt violation to me.
6:01 The Process-ing speed geddit 😂
Kendrick Perkins's racist rant made this social media addict the MVP. Shame on the NBA media to snub Jokic for this real JOKER. No accountability, no leadership, full excuses just like his social media buddies.
There are very few real ones out there: Curry, Lebron, Butler, Giannis, Jokic, Luka, Tatum and that's about it. Rest are in a popularity contest for the prom. Fqn divas, not real competitors.
As a Harden fan, Harden at least gave me two 40 pieces so i can cope till next season. I think we see a change next year when he isn’t focused on the MVP so I’d like him to stay.
Embiid’s main goal the last few years has not been winning a title, it was winning MVP. And he always gave everything he possibly could give to accomplish that. Now that he has the MVP hopefully he start to focus on entering the playoffs healthy rather than injured
this is similar to david robinson and hakeem olajuwon in 1995. robinson won the mvp but dream had the last laugh as the latter got another title and another fmvp.
But Robinson isn’t a chocker.
@@mymagicisntgivingup5908 its the mentality. Dream is saying ok you have the mvp, but I'll show everybody who the real mvp is.
Same with the joker. He showed all the doubters who the true mvp is.
@@allen.maverick but Robinson is still better than Embiid.
@@mymagicisntgivingup5908 that i agree
Embiid’s “injury” should be rephrased as “Embiid being a lazy lardass who is out of shape”
There is no way Embiid will ever win a championship as the best player. NBA history says if top tier players do not win their 1st championship by age 27, it is rare that they will ever win.
The only ones to win their first championship after age 27 was Olajuwon (30), Nowitzki (31), & the 2008 Celtics big 3 (Garnett, Pierce, & Allen).
Curry, LeBron, Jordan, Kawhi, Duncan, Moses Malone, Magic, Bird, Kobe, Shaq, DWade, Isiah, all won before or immediately after the season they turned 27.
The chokers converged in Philly, doc, joel, & harden.
If the main stream media wasn’t so blatantly racist, Jokic would be a 3 time mvp. Smh 🤦🏾♂️
They kept running that « Harden to Embiid post up » that wasn’t working like damn switch it up Dababy Rivers
game 7 you rise to the occasion, you leave everything you have on the floor, winning or losing.
embiid probably just felt relieved that it was over as we could see later, he wasn't even that bothered by the loss.
Was quite a low-light roll from the Boston series. Just kept going and going ... & Going.
SMH jokic should have got MVP😂
I think Joel can win as a 1b type player but he needs someone on the team either better or just as good as him
Bro facts
This is what I was thinking, kind of like what Lebron and AD have
@@brrazzy8417 yes exactly
Are Tobias Harris and Tyrese Maxey better or just as good as him?
As I said, he's on par with Durant and Pippen. Good players but not field general who can win a title.
It was obvious after the game he didn't give a fuck. This dude stopped caring about a championship, in his mind he got the MVP and that was the goal. Sad that the award was given to a player with the exact opposite mentality the award is meant to reward.
Damn ig we’ll never see a big-man battle in the finals…
They quit putting on Embiid on the perimeter so much
tries to injure his opponents, flops for calls, tries to only play the weak teams and chokes in the playoffs
