Embiid should win MVP because he’s elite on both ends. He should be a finalist for DPOY as well.

[@brucelau2023]

For sure man 💯💯💯💯💯 someone will have to end Nikola Jokic’s reign as MVP , Embiid has came in second teach of the last few seasons

[@BIGROMEx2]

not so much defensively. don’t get me wrong, he’s a good shot blocker, but he’s slow laterally unlike giannis when he tries, or another mobile wing or guard like jrue holiday. i’d take JJJ over him as well.

[@23lacross]

@@BIGROMEx2 Rudy is slow laterally too and he won 3 DPOY. Embiid is exceptional at protecting the rim.

[@BIGROMEx2]

@@23lacross embiid’s rim protection is nowhere near as elite as gobert’s though.

[@23lacross]

@@BIGROMEx2 I would say it isn't that far off and Embiid is better at guarding the perimeter than Gobert. If you've noticed Embiid never gets pulled off the floor for defense, Gobert has.

[@brucelau2023]

That game he had against Jokic last month definitely was one of the best and dominant performances of his career just simply remarkable

[@sirfish9824]

He also dropped 40 plus on Giannis a couple times.

[@metathoughts732]

To bad he never plays Jokic in Denver. He has sat out Denver games since 2019

He deserves MVP tbh Jokic has won 2 already it would be nice to see Embiid win one

[@brucelau2023]

Definitely most skilled big man of all time The moves and just the ferocity from Embiid is just unbelievable No doubt in my mind this man should get the 2022-23 MVP Jokic’s reign as MVP Will end this season

the MVP of our league, without question. Shoutout to Giannis, Jokic, and Tatum, though.. But Embiid is clearly MVP for me

Embiid is the only player that can guard Giannis 1 v 1, and schools Jokic every time he plays against him. He’s the best scorer in the league, is top 10 in rebounds and blocks, and his 76ers have the same record as Denver. MVP 💯

[@phillyjackson45]

[@sycamoreshade8109]

Anyone who wins MVP not named Joel Embiid needs to hand it over to this Man.. It's like when you're in a Pick Up Game, and there's 1 guy thats bigger and better than EVERYONE And that same guy is just toying with people, as you pray that you dont end up in a 1 on 1 position gaurding him As he shoots and everytime he makes a shot, you're thinking "Man, this aint even fair" Or he's that dude that makes you think twice about heading to the basket, then immediately regret it the second you do

[@exhortationchretienne]

What makes his game so special IS all the soccer stuffs that he put in... Passing lanes and footwork...

The skill level of someone his size is absolutely astonishing!!!

[@officialthomasjames]

LeBron and Jordan never won 3 straight MVPs, and they actually deserved to win it every year. If the NBA gives Jokic the 3peat, the award should never be taken seriously again. Joel deserves it more than anyone, give him his respect.

[@alessiofe]

LeBron didn't deserve it more than Rose. Jordan was robbed when they gave it to Malone yet this match up is more even and Embiid just chickened the game in denver

[@beedebawng2556]

Joel Embiid is the best player in the NBA. End of story. Yes, everyone has their favourite with their special skill, but Embiid is better than all of them. The scary thing is he's underperforming. If he actually took care of his body through eating properly, he would be in the running for goat.

[@salezvr]

hahaha eembid has former mvp harden as a teammate, he also had an all star playoff machine butler, an all star defensive player simmons and he never did anything, he didn't even reach the east finals because he choked in the last quarter. jokic played the last two years with barton, campazo and morris in backcourt, also with no all star teammates this seasson.

[@BleepyBloopy772]

Lesson for today: If you see Embiid just stop, drop, and roll because you ain’t getting to the rim. Otherwise, Embiid will be the one making you stopping, dropping, and rolling.

[@prestonendy1876]

There is absolutely no way, under any circumstance, I would pick Jokic over Embiid. Embiid is leaps and bounds more impressive. MVP voters need to stop the Philly hate bias. What mvp in the history of basketball has gotten subbed out for a defensive possession? People need to clear their hateful eyes and come around to the fact that Embiid is better. Jokic got his second mvp because he was more liked. Change the stupid voting system!
