What!?!? Embiid has more Athletic Ability and Potential than Joker ???? but, He’s not better than the Joker nor should Embiid be in the Best Center of All Time Debate with Wilt/Kareem/Russell/Hakeem/Shaq/etc. The ???? Joker is the only Current Center that should be in that Debate.

Joel Embiid would sauce any player up… until that game mattered. If the game is just for funsies he is cooking you. However if that game has a bet on it and you have to win it to receive the prize… It’s not happening

Who expected Joel to drag Ben AND tobi to a finals? He gets tripled for a reason. No one knocking down shots around him. Sixers waited til harden to pair him up with an actual pg he could run pick n rolls with. Only 2 years his team under preformed. Jimmy year and harden second year. Other teams weren’t good enough. Especially with Ben and tobi making 80 mil together.

Didn’t we agreed last season that Jokic was the best player in game, now all the sudden Embiid is a different animal ????♂️.
What is this ??

We blamed Ben Simmons for his failures. Ben got traded almost four years ago now, and we still get the same results from Embiid in the playoffs, he’s either hurt, or he chokes. But he always running his mouth.

The Jokic D riding is crazy. Top 3 ever? Cap. He’d get dog walked by Robinson, Hakeem, DWIGHT, Wilt. Best player in the world is cap. He’s got a great team. If he was winning on the Hornets, I’d maybe hear you.

Lmao when Joel gets out the second round then we’ll talk joker has that winning trait that Joel does not have !

Healthy embid is better than the joker it’s 2 sides of the ball too people

People that still think Jokic is a bad defender don’t know ish about the game.

No white guy is better than any BLK player at they position just because he won the white mans MVP when Joel had better season than he did even when JE was hurt he still averaged more points

Yeah bro Lebron is a better shooter than Larry bird cause he’s black????

@@boblully5053 WTH Lebron is not a shooting guard but he still an all around better BB player than Larry Bird and yes because he black ???????????????????????? get out you feelings the truth is the truth LB was great at what he did but LB is not a better shooter than Steph Curry and his a BLK man duh ????

Embiid is a better overall player. Joker is just a better passer.

Shaq. Embiid couldn’t or any of these centers in the league couldn’t guard him

Imagine Embiid on serbia team and Jokic on usa team, usa would win 40pts difference. Stop this madness, its like comparing tracy mcgrady to lebron james

I can’t believe he said jokic is top 3 centers so all time Perkins needs his face slapped… Shaq Hakeem Robinson Wilt Kareem Russell prime Ewing

Sometimes Stephen A is just after hot takes with no facts you can’t compare a champion, final MVP and 3 time MVP with a guy who hasn’t reached a conference final in his career

It’s simple now that embiid represented USA at the Olympics the media specifically (espn-SAS) will now boost him and not the player with more MVPs and even a championship where as embiid has not even made to to the conference finals

Tim Duncan played power forward and center so let’s not forget about him…
