Hey, you remember that one time when this weird massive narrative shift took place to declare Joel Embiid should be the MVP because because to award three in a row to Nikola Jokic would imply he was an all-time great? I hate to break it to you, but … – 11:29 PM

My guesstimate is that there is a 1% chance the Blazers acquire Joel Embiid.
But should Lillard ask out, there would be an 80% chance that he lands in Philadelphia. – 2:43 PM

More was asked about how Joel Embiid might close the gap between his reg. season and 2nd round efficiency. Morey says he would like to get more playoff like reps during season to prep for that.
(So maybe he can ask the Jazz or Hornets to triple Jo more ). pic.twitter.com/vsjgfoBZrc – 1:04 PM

I don’t think Rui on Jokic is a fix-all but I think it does create problems for Denver. 76ers found success with a similar approach vs Denver in their reg szn win. Nuggets were up 15 with 14 minutes to go in that game but collapsed when they moved Embiid off Jokic. – 12:10 PM

Julius Randle was one of four players in the NBA to average 20+ points, 10+ rebounds and 4+ assists per game in 2022-23.
The other three were Joel Embiid, Nikola Jokic and Giannis Antetokounmpo – who finished first, second and third, respectively, in this year’s MVP voting. – 9:39 AM

The problem Doc Rivers had in Philly is the same one he encountered with the Clippers: he was hired to close the deal, not maintain the same level as his predecessors. He never had a fully healthy Joel Embiid in the playoffs but wasn’t extended much grace with a decade of bad Ls. – 9:21 AM

I know this isn’t the time to remind you all because I don’t usually throw rocks from a glass house but NBA MVP Joel Embiid had
15 points, 8 rebounds, and 1 assist in a pivotal game 7
Jokic just had 19 points, 16 rebounds, and 7 assists — at the half of the WCF. – 10:04 PM

More on this storyline
StatMuse: Jamal Murray averages 25.1 career PPG in the playoffs. That’s more than Wilt Chamberlain, James Harden, Russell Westbrook, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Shaquille O’Neal, Larry Bird, Joel Embiid, Jayson Tatum, Kyrie Irving, Charles Barkley, Carmelo Anthony , Oscar Robertson.

Zach Lowe: “As for Joel, he loves Philly. Philly loves him. He loves being loved in Philly, he understands what that means. I think it would be very very hard for him to to to follow the Superstar ‘I’m really forcing my way out of here’ model but if James (Harden) leaves you’re relying on Maxey to take a giant leap.” -via YouTube / May 16, 2023
Damian Lillard: I saw the full. And I love Embiid… I also love their roster … did I miss or did you? Basketball talk not personal. -via Twitter / May 16, 2023
