Big men should strive to play like Jokic, not the crying Embiid who only cares about passing points and rebounds to get a regular season award and cries about it 😂

[@jahbrilplaysgamesandstuff326]

Your comment makes no sense

[@elitemidrange]

When did Embiid cry about the award? He said it was important to him sure, a lot of people say that. Tatum was literally campaigning for it earlier this year. Embiid and Jokic have both had mvp caliber seasons for like the last four years. Both were deserving last year imo. Y’all need to stop this narrative that Embiid didn’t deserve it, because he absolutely did. And he was gonna smoke everybody this year for another mvp. Just say you don’t like Embiid bro. 🤷🏿‍♂️

[@MineFullStop]

Throwing players under a bus, flopping and the free throws is what turns me off about Embiid. Also Embiid did sook saying "what has he achieved to have 2 MVPs" then Jokic goes on and wins the chip literally couple months later which made what Embiid said even more foolish but I don't have a problem with players wanting the MVP it's just diffrent players have bigger objectives.
