    please be consistent SAS, of you are asking Kawhi to retire, why not do the same for Embiid?

    Let me introduce you to MR. SCREAMIN’ A. SMITH the WALKING CONTRADICTION. Embiid gets a pass because he’s from Philly. SAS has a soft spot for Philly players. But, let that had been KAWHI LEONARD or God forbid KYRIE IRVING saying this he would of read them the riot act.

    Kwahi won two rings and 2 finals MVP.
    Remember that.

    Embid got the media to steal an MVP from Jokic.

    Why is Kawhi, a proven superstar get destroyed by Stephen A for prioritizing his health, but he gives Embiid a pass, despite him not accomplishing anything as close?

    Embiid is the media’s darling.

    Who else came here to see the Kawhi comments lmao

    The NBA really needs to shorten the season. Load management from stars is disrespectful to the fans that pay for those expensive tickets to see the superstars play.

    @2:40 SAS just conveniently forgot Embiid’s 15pts, 27%fg, -28 +/- performance in the game 7 vs Celtics. Lol

  13. @BrandeeAugustus-hi7is

    I think it’s different for the two because Joel Embiid has documented obvious injuries and surgeries. Kawhi Leonard is talked about how he’s so great and a champion; yet, since he’s left San Antonio he’s had the disappearing injuries you don’t see or understand. It’s because of his success that he gets more flak. You don’t expect success from Embiid no matter how good he is.

    A small price to pay you say for sitting out. If you are a kid who saved up for a ticket to see your favorite player and he isnt playing tonight because the millionaire has bigger plane then it’s a massive price to pay. Who pays this cost ultimately? The fans. But SAS in his ivory tower wouldnt know that

    PHILADELPHIA IS DONE! NOBODY IS HEALTHY AND THEY NEVER WILL BE COMPLETELY HEALTHY! THEY NEED TO GET YOUNGER PLAYERS THAT KNOW HOW TO KEEP THEIR BODIES IN SHAPE!!!

    Im going to be in the comment section everyday asking the same thing til i get an answer from ESPN… First of all, why havent you guys reported anything about the desaster thats going on in the lakers organization?… How come u guys dont report how good quincy olivari is and what he did to single handedly win the lakers their first game? Why hasnt that idiot coach reddick not put quincy olivari in the next game after he did so good? Why r u guys not reporting on how bad bronny is and that hes taking up a spot on the roster from aomeone who teuly deserves it? You guys are runing this yoibg mans career cause hes making bronny look bad and you guys dont care!… Its disgusting and i wont stop til ESPN is exposed… Be real with yourselves before its too late…
