    Haven't play in Denver since 2019..what he is afraid of??.. =)

    Lol.

    Embiid owns Jokic. Why do you think he's afraid of him when he's only lost to him twice and dropping 40+ the last couple times they've played? Makes zero sense. 

    https://www.statmuse.com/nba/ask/joel-embiid-stats-vs-nikola-jokic-stats







    Also, I guess he's he afraid of Portland too, since, you know, his knee is still bothering him and he's out tonight. 
    Sorry but.. Jokic can beat him with one hand  ;)
    Why does he regularly lose to him with two then?
    There is no way to convince me who is better player.. ;)
    Well if both the eye test and the stats test don't work...yeah I guess there's no convincing you. 

    You probably also think he was still ducking Jokic too and that this prolonged actual injury is all a part of the ruse. haha
    The eye test work very fine, thats why i can see what is everyone doing in the field..can you??.. ;)
    Does your eye test not see him losing 6 of 8 games he's played against the guy? Or getting out scored and out played most of the time? lol
    If they are both healthy Embiid is better than Jokic. But being healthy is a skill too, so you have to consider that.
    Yeah, that's a different conversation though. Saying "Jokic can beat him with one hand" when he regularly loses with both doesn't make any sense. 
    He can beat Jojo with one hand when Embiid has two torn menisci. or something like that

    It's easy to say that when Embiid is 6-2 against him while putting up better overall numbers than Jokic.

    How can you say what you're saying? Have you actually seen these games they've played against each other? If not, see below for the numbers:

    Now Embiid is "dumb?" Dude that's fucked up. And also total bullshit. Guy will get to the foul line a couple dozen times a game.

    I imagine Jokic also "works harder" and "devotes himself to the game" and whatever else. As if Embiid was born with the ability to drain 15 footers. Don't worry, we all heard you.

    I thought the playoffs would be bad and reg season a turnaround but IU guess the team wants to coach themselves?

    That idea (team coaching themselves) worked so well for the Kyrie/KD Nets.

    NHL is also a joke. Next year they are doing a 4 nations competition with USA, Canada, Sweden & Finland, instead. That will be cool!

    Baseball is the only ASG worth watching. Some teams have taken to emulating the ASG all the time with different pitchers every inning. LOL

    What sport is this thread about?

    The Warriors are toast now.  Klay is like a shell of himself.  That dynasty is over.

    It's college but Caitlyn Clark surpassed Maravich for all time NCAA scoring leader.  Thats impressive.

    She was fun to watch last year and damn good to watch this year.  I hope she kills in the WNBA.

    Best woman college player ever?  I still think Turassi holds that trophy.
