No crime being a fan of certain players and disliking others. Embiid *should* hoop circles around Jokic. And maybe on another team with a different coach/supporting cast, he'll get there. But, yeah, Embiid's so far fallen short of what is his potential to be better than Jokic / Giannis year in, year out.

Embiid was the MVP. He's fine, but he doesn't have that dog in him like Jokic. Playing with Harden and for Doc didn't help either.

Why? Jokic is significantly more talented.

Because Jokic has the athletic ability of a 75 year old. He does everything in YMCA slow motion.

Lakers were the best defensive team in the playoffs and he's toying with them.

His skill level and his TWTW are extremely high.

This is the equivalent of saying J.Hurts has superior physical strength and a strong arm. Compared to J.Herbert's superior intelligence and ability to read a defense.

TWTW :lol:

Herbert doesn't have any dog in him, and I'm not sure he is intelligent or can read defenses well. Other than that... TWTW matters when it's winning time. It's an intangible.

Herbert definitely has ability to win being mentioned on every most overrated QB list out there. I keep hearing about this dude but never see him when it matters.

Herbert is starting to look like Mitch (Pro Bowl QB) Trubisky with a better arm.

why does that mean that Embiid should hoop circles around him? Should the other forwards in the 80s have been able to hoop circles around Larry Bird?

Bird was an athlete. A nonathletic player isn't usually the best player in the NBA. This shouldn't be controversial. Jokic is a unicorn.

I don't think it's controversial, I just think it's wrong.

If Embiid is a world class athlete and Jokic is not, why did Embiid run out of gas in the 2nd round of the playoffs while Jokic still starts fast breaks on his own every night? Jokic is in playoff shape right now and Joel Embiid was not.

Are you stating that endurance and not being made out of glass is the same as being athletic?

Jokic is a cave troll that they starve in Siberia until he’s in playoff shape.

What are the odds that Ballpark Frank will ever take a 5 month hiatus, or any hiatus for that matter, from this place? Just Asking A Question
