Joel Embiid Postgame Interview - Game 6 | Heat vs 76ers | 2022 NBA Playoffs

[@brucelau2023]

Truly tho Joel Embiid has shown me a ton of heart, respect , and like his overall passion for the game & taking two games from Miami with those many injuries , just wow , and he knows he tried

[@alvinweaver1450]

He didn't take two games from Miami,Harden did and he throws him under bus after the series..Embiid a bitch straight up and why Jokic is MVP.

[@jeffreyval9665]

Yeah of course he's tired. He has to be on the floor all game every game since they lost Drummond in the Simmons trade. Drummond gave them really good minutes and is still a great rebounder. I can't believe not throwing Drummond in that deal would of been a deal breaker. They had nobody that was adequate to put in minutes to give Embiid anykind of rest once Drummond was gone and of course like he has his whole career Harden didn't show up when they needed him most.

[@MrOctober44]

@@jeffreyval9665 Nets fan here. They wanted Thybule or Maxey. The Sixers refused. Obviously they're not trading Embid for Harden. You have to give to get. The Nets desperately needed a rebounder.

[@thhnafc]

@@jeffreyval9665 he said ‘tried’ not ‘tired’

[@jeffreyval9665]

@@MrOctober44 they could of had Thybulle because he's worthless. Maxey is gonna be a star. Thybulle is another guy with no offensive game at all and plays good defense but nothing great. Just another thing they did wrong. That's a no brainer giving up Thybulle and Curry instead of Drummond. I think the Nets would of done that.

Embiid easily wins the warrior award in my book what he has done year after year while banged up is amazing, On the topic of MVP however if we're being very honest and watching this years playoffs I think Giannas gets the award for MVP - HANDS DOWN! Do not take my word for it.. Just pull up and watch the 4th quarter of any game in the current Boston-Bucks series then tell me what you think.. Personally I know Giannas is a straight baller and where he stands way above Embiid is in the turnover category, espiecially in critical situations. Giannas in the crunch plays aggressive, but not so out of control he looses the rock. Giannas's lane penetration game is unreal, he's is the ONLY 7 footer with enough ball control to penetrate the lane like a point guard then once near the rim turn from David Banner to Hulk an explode into a thunderous dunk. Giannas attacks the rim relentlessly like a machine with the gear stuck in attack mode.. Does Giannas get away with charges and travelling - YES Does it occur frequently enough to nullify his greatness - NO Anyhow this is not a bash Embiid take, but it's my honest opinion as a Sixers fan who has watched other talent. Note: The arguments that Embiid hasn't had as much help and Embiid is a toucher player are both fair, but at the end of the day it's all about wins - losses.

The best thing that can happen for Embiid is to change the team. His skills grown but mentally he is at the same place he was a year ago. Last year he blamed Ben for the loss, this year: Harden is not the same guy he was in Houston. He needs to learn when to shut up, and how to protect his players to ve real MVP. And nobody in 76era is a leader and he has no ody to learn it from, also their closing of the games sucks balls when it matters. They lost every game that that was important before playoffs.

Imagine- they had Butler, Simmons, and Embid in 2019 and lost in game 7 to the Raptors by a buzzer beater that almost didn't go. That was their best chance at a title.

Now I think they really need a superstar to jump in because he wants to play with Embid. Short of that they probably just need to reboot.

Nikola Jokic and Joel Embiid won the same amount of playoff games after the MVP was announced. Embiid scored 20 points in 24 short attempts in an elimination game

@@AHamp123 Every year Embiid's stats goes down in the playoffs..stop making exuses... Embiid is SOFT midrange shooter with NO back to the basket game...thats why his stats goes down in the playoffs! Jokic bullies everyone in the post with his strenght, leading the league in points in the paint! Thats DOMINANCE!!! Jokic in the playoffs 31ppg in only 34 minutes...by far the best big man in the game!

@@AHamp123 He was 54% and 59% from the field in Games 4 and 5 with the same orbital fracture and broken thumb and now that he was 29% from the field in the elimination game you want to use the injury card.

[@admusic247]

He’s just upset. After game 5 the local media went crazy saying they should trade him so these are probably just references to that. He literally said “people probably want him traded” Trading embiid would be terrible for the sixers. Clearly there is a rift between harden and embiid. Harden may just have to go. His energy after the game 5 loss was unacceptable.

[@slothninja5180]

@@admusic247 I think it's pretty evident that Embiids body language says he does not want to be on Philly any longer. You can tell in his comments he has a deep disdain in the front office and the players around him and he doesn't feel their culture is even remotely in the same league as Miami.

Joel left it out there but I feel he wasn’t playing his brand of basketball. He would destroy our zone by chilling in the middle of it forcing us to double him or foul which opens up his shooters.
