    Morons in here would rather think every single ref has been paid by Embiid yo give him free throws over the fact that the best scorer in the NBA in the last 2 seasons and this one is very hard to defend without fouling

    Its lunacy and y’all need professional help

    Having Dame drive is a game changer in the 4th. He gets the ball on our side, and you don’t have to be scared out of your mind what is going to happen, and teams are scared to foul him.

    Before you know it, he is already at the other side, driving to the paint, drawing contact and going to the line.

    And if things don’t work, you have an elite passer to organize your offense in the clutch. Which is as big for us because Giannis feeds off of that and is feasting in the clutch.

    If we are not the most clutch team in the league, we are close to that.

    What’s more important is that there’s still huge room for improvement, all around.

    The problem is not Embiid getting those calls is that only he is getting this type of calls. Other players can get murdered on the floor and still not get a whistle. That is why his game seems unfair

      Sorry man, refs said the only way Joker can get a whistle is if he’s mugged at knifepoint and even then you might need to use a challenge to get it

    Least valid MVP since Westbrook and maybe the worst of all time.

    giannis had 18 FTs last night in a game Dame also had 15

    not a single peep

    Embiid hasnt even played yet today and people are still crying. You hate him because he makes them. If Giannis shot 88% from the line youd probably cry too

    He’s also #6 in FG made, after being #1 in the league last year.

    So yes, he gets a lot of points of FTs. He also scores a lot of points without them.

    What’s funny is that in r/nfl people complain endlessly about Hurts and the Brotherly Shove and in r/mlb it’s all about how the Phillies lose intentionally to perform better in the playoffs.

    I’m sorry Philadelphia hurt you all so, but you’ve got to let it go.
