Stop trying to make fetch happen. Embiid is fucking awesome.tempo_n_groove said:So I was curious about scoring in oh, the last 40 years.
in the 80's there were 5 games where someone scored 60 or more.
90's 4.
2000's 9.
2010's 13.
In the 2020's alone in 5 years there are 14 already, 14.
But hey, the skill level is elevating, there is no defense anymore. I see 100 points is serious trouble if someone truly gets hot.
Go ahead and dispute that, tempo!If I had known then what I know now...

Someone is going to magically instill defense to their game now or will they actually utilize Lopez and Giannis properly?CROJAM95 said:I thought coach Bud was good coach, that seamed premature as well......0 -
I saw 13 of those players>LOLtempo_n_groove said:
True Remove Petite, West, Wilt Gervin and Robertson though theres enough tape of games you can watch to see how good they were.The Juggler said:
Did you not look at their career averages?tempo_n_groove said:
You said scorer.The Juggler said:
Yeah. Name them. Look up their career averages first.tempo_n_groove said:
That ive ever seen? I can list 10.The Juggler said:
Who are better scorers?tempo_n_groove said:
Stop it, stopppp.The Juggler said:Quite possibly the greatest, or one of the greatest, scorers any of us have ever seen. Too easy for him right now.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qoDrv3MVdK0
You want the other 10 after that?
Jordan, Durant, Kobe, Bird, Dominique, Wilt, Petite, English, Dantley, Anthony, Lebron, West, Baylor, Shaq, Gervin, kareem, Robertson, Malone.
I'd put them all up before him.
Perhaps Iverson, Magic, Barry Mcadoo?
Jo has the 4th highest ppg in NBA history.
Also, I said "any of us have ever seen." I don't know how old you are but I'd be willing to bet you didn't see almost half that list. lol
The lack of defense in the league now doesn't do him any favors either.
PPG, yayyyy. Last year we had a few crack 30 didn't we? And we discussed how that hasn't happened in forever too.
Embiid is good, not the best I've ever seen. In a few years from now when he declines will you remember that he only played 8 years at this point and the others I mentioned played more?
And off the top of my head, how about Rick Barry and Bernard King?0 -
Barry can be argued but Kings career was altered. A healthy King would have been something. Before his injury dude was a beast.cutz said:

Well, if everyone has elevated ther game, then scoring should go up?tempo_n_groove said:
Game is not what it once was so let's not try to compare it to any other era.The Juggler said:
Ah, he's actually great. That's indisputable at this point. And yes he is, whether you admit it or not. He can't help it that the first few years of his career were cut short by injuries.tempo_n_groove said:
400 games played only... If you think he will be like this in 5 years godbless.The Juggler said:tempo_n_groove said:

Embiid is good, not the best I've ever seen. In a few years from now when he declines will you remember that he only played 8 years at this point and the others I mentioned played more?
"Good." LOL. Sorry man. Jo is scoring at an historic pace for his career. That's a tad better than "good." And if you don't consider him best you've seen, he is certainly one of them...which was my original point.
How many of those guys put up 70 before?
How many of those guys you mentioned averaged more points per game? -- the answer is only Wilt and MJ.
How many of those guys scored more points per minute per 36, which is probably the best indicator of how great a scorer you are? The answer is none. Nobody in the history of the NBA has averaged more points per minute than Embiid. You should watch more Sixers games.
The craziest thing about last night? For those who watch him night in, night out? He looks like he can score 50+ every time he touches the court. I have never seen anything like it. The game is so easy for him right now. Nobody can guard him. Truly amazing stuff.
Again, he's good, really good just not one of the best I've ever seen.
But let's jut go by individual seasons then: Joel Embiid is scoring at a greater clip this season than anyone in any other season in the history of the NBA other than Wilt Chamberlain and Michael Jordan.
EDIT--Harden's insane 18/19 season with the Rockets is basically tied with Jo this year....except Jo is doing it playing 3 less minutes per game. lol
36 points per game in 34 minutes per game is fucking nutso.
MJ scored 37 one year...but in 40 minutes per game.
So, yeah, Jo is the greatest, most efficient, scorer you've ever seen.
I am just not excited about todays scoring, sorry. No D. Everyones game has elevated, I will say that.
Now, comparing him to Jordan? Stop it, stopppppp.
As you know basketball is a sport where better offense will beat good D.0 -
