Who said you should be?

I’m just not gonna crown Embiid for playing great at home against Denver as he does every year when we never get to see how he does on the road because he chooses not to play when it’s not on his home court.

Embiid vs Jokic brings out the best of this board
My guy is 6-2 head to head. But it’s only because he’s ducking Denver @ Denver from what I’ve heard.

I hope next matchup they let Embiid guard him more. Jokic is awesome. Like a great QB, you need to change the look. Play some Batum, play some Harris, play Embiid though on more possessions. If Jokic can lock in to the same look over and over again he gets whatever he wants off of it. He’s too good.

I’m saying against Denver you bafoon. Embiid is treating tonight like he has something to prove, Jokic couldn’t care less.

But since Embiid has been playing this way for over a month, I take it he regularly plays 39 minutes a game? Oh wait a minute tonight was the most he’s played in a game since mid November and the 2nd most he’s played all season. Crazy isn’t it.
They beat the Knicks by 40 and he still played 36 minutes.

Quit while you’re behind.

Not a single person here thinks this regular season game in January does anything to settle the debate about who’s the better player.

You are spiraling for absolutely no reason.

Kind of hard to keep a true record when the last time Embiid played in Denver was 2019 and they lost despite the fact that the teams pretty much play each other twice a year.

If Embiid is 6-2 against Jokic, and Jokic is 7-7 against Philly what does that tell you? And I know you know this, but don’t forget they were drafted the same year.

Yeah, I’m done with this.

You are just all over the place.

It was one game.

Can’t win them all.
Sure, we all know Embiid cares a lot more about stats than Jokic does. Do you know how many times Jokic was one assist or rebound away from a triple-double and yet didn’t give two shits if he got it or not? Hell that happened twice this last month and he doesn’t care.

Sixers are 1-5 without their best player.

Of course, he had to keep his shooting streak alive.
Your bitterness over a January regular season game that you claim doesn’t matter has been my favorite part.
