  • Joel Embiid went off for 70 points against the San Antonio Spurs & Victor Wembanyama. But one could argue that it was the easiest 70 points to be scored in the NBA ever. In this video, Augustas Suliauskas goes through 76ers star’s performance and breaks down how the Cameroonian was able to score on Wemby effortlessly.

    Most of the times Embid "draws" fauls he is floping or making offensive fauls. I think referees should know him at this point.

      This is where I don’t agree fully. He’s a master at recognizing contact, even then where’s only a slight bit of it. Yeah sometimes he gets ‘superstar’ calls due to amount of times he actually plays with the ball, but most of the time - you can actually see a foul there. I’d question the NBA rulebook more here

    One thing makes all that craze for individual stats rather stupid. 3rd place Sixers play against dead last Spurs, Embiid as MVP candidate has no physical match there, drops record points against poor defense and still it was rather a close game.

That being said, Neither Embiid nor Doncic should be MVP imo. And none of this matters if these types of performances can't be produced in a playoff environement. Jokic was #1 in points, assists and rebounds and basically averaged a triple double during the playoffs. Now that's impressive.

    Embiid is the refs favourite player. You can never defend him with any real effort. This means he'll either get an easy shot or get free throws. Then the playoffs start and they allow defenses to be more agressive and he is lost. He'll have 2 MVP's while never going past the 2nd round. Any other player would be crucified for it.

    Let's keep this in perspective; benchmarks are lauded when they're not passed often. Roger Banister with the first sub-4 min mile was considered an impossible feat. His record lasted 1.5 months. A year later, 3 sprinters broke the 4 minute barrier in 1 race. In the NFL, 200+ yard receiving game was once inconceivable. 24 of the 50 greatest single game performances by a WR happened in the past 20 years. *It's not that impressive anymore.* QB single season passing record was held by Dan Marino for 27 seasons. It has been passed 11 times since Drew Brees in 2011. The same is happening in the NBA with 4 60+ point performances inside 1 week. 1 person does it, and it inspires others. That's thr quintessential human spirit and resolve.
    Rather than denigrate it, we should just appreciate it.

    As you said. The Spurs decided to actually play defense in the last 4-5 minutes of the 4th quarter. This, and only this, plus the fact that the Spurs are a young team in development mode, is why Embiid was able to be a high volume scorer, and Philly was able to win this one. The same night KAT scored 62, and the Wolves, also a good deep team lost to Charlotte. Let's be real. Charlotte sucks and is among the very bottom part of the power rankings this season, trending downwards now that Rosier has been dealt. Now someone make this make sense. The Thimberwolves showed up this season. Both defensively and offensively. Ant is a superstar. Rudy reinvented himself in Minny and is great at what he does. That McDaniels kid plays great defense I must say. Naz is a great. Conley is great for a vet guard. They are deep as hell. They currently share 1st place in the west with OKC, and they manage to lose to Charlotte, because KAT decides to be a volume scorer, and Charlotte unlike San Antonio manages to stop the shenanigans in the 4th quarter, and KAT gets benched, which should have been done way earlier in my opinion. Damn what a night that was. :D

    People hate Embiid because every Philly star is hated. It’s funny seeing people say “foul merchant” because they never watch him play. He gets fouled because of his usage and how often he is attacking the rim. Much like Giannis getting fouled a lot. Wilt also got fouled a lot, Pettit, Shaq, Iverson, etc. people just hate Embiid because he doesn’t shy away from it because he can make his free throws. Doing something only 8 other players have ever done is by definition impressive. Congrats to him it’s a cool milestone to have.

    The easiest 70+ games had Wilt, no doubt. Embiid is at least playing against full professionals meanwhile Wilt was way ahead of his time in playing style, height and physicality. Majority of his competition has been part-time hoopers

    It’s really not impressive because it was erase by luka in less than a week. And just like embid score 70 and towns score 62. Luka score 73 and booker score 62.

  • @injusticeanywherethreatens4810

    The biggest problem with embiiid is all the fouls he draws. He draws WAAAY too many cause just staring at him wrongly is a foul apparently ...
    And then when defences load up on him in thr playoffs and he needs to learn new passing angles he has refused to. other centres like Shaq and Jok have learned and adopted these.
    I just hope he works on his passing or at least Nurse changes the Philly's offence so that passing chances are far more open and clear for Emb in those situations.

I mean 2 of the 3 last Euroleague MVPs, Vezenkov and Micic, come into the NBA and can barely get off the bench. The other recent Euroleague player, Mirotic, was a role player at best in the NBA. Can you imagine the other way around? Jokic and Embiid go to Euroleague and get DNPs. lol

      If you can reach history while winning it, why not do so? Scoring 70 is hard against anyone, might have a chance to do so 2-3 times during your career. They got the W, he got the record. Obviously KAT tried to do the same on the same night and that didn’t work out at all lol
