1. God I missed him 🤧

2. Insane. Refs are too easy to bait nowadays.

3. shameless

4. They decided they’re bringing the early regular season whistle back just for this game.

5. Love how Doris and JJ call out NBA Twitter for hating on Embiid and a minute later Embiid shows exactly why people hate on him

6. Vintage Embiid

7. Pathetic player

8. This shit is embarrassing. For all the skill and strategy why are they putting up with shit like his. Or Adebayo’s illegal ass screens, for that matter. It’s just so ugly.

9. Embiid is the worst star player to watch and I’ll die on this hill.
   Dude is fucking great at basketball but I hate watching him

10. The best and largest player on the floor and he’s flopping around and ending up on his ass all the time, pretty embarassing really

11. man i really just cant quite place my finger on why people hate embiid

12. Do Philly folks enjoy this?

13. This is genuinely pathetic for him and the league

14. I understand why players flop, but to throw your shoulder into a guy and THEN flop? Cmon man

15. He’ll be hurt again soon enough

16. Good to see the NBA is going back to its roots

17. Doris saying Jovic has terrible defense makes me sad

18. They should have both flopped, then go to instant replay to show who flopped first

19. Magikarp

20. Be patient, everyone. It’ll only last until early May

21. I can’t stand this insurance fraud style basketball. He’s one of the biggest, strongest players in the league and at the slightest touch of a defender he throws himself to the floor while shotputting the ball in the general direction of the baseline and gets rewarded with free throws.

22. So insufferable to watch. Almost as bad as Doris’s nonstop glazing

23. The funniest part of this for me is that neither team can complain since they both have generational free throw merchants

24. how do both those idiot refs fall for that?

25. Don’t know what’s worse, player relying on this shit so much or referee calling this shit.

26. How are you supposed to play defense. He either runs you over for a free dunk and never gets called for offensive fouls or you stand your ground like Adebayo and get called for the defensive foul. It’s stupid. If the refs didn’t give him this bullshit, he would look so stupid flailing around and chucking up horrible shots. His efficiency would plummet

27. Physics doesn’t allow this to happen.

28. Not an Embiid fan but he does this because the rules and refs allow this bs . Just like Harden used to do

29. Someone that big really shouldn’t be falling down that much.

30. Fuck ’em up, Jim!

31. *Miami will remember that*

32. This dude is supposed to be good? Miami clappin them cheeks

33. i feel like the accumulation of just falling to the ground like this, especially for a big guy, over & over again is going to seriously limit his career & thus the success of his team more than the resulting fouls will hurt his opponents. it may have done so already.

34. Mvp

    Yup. This guy.

    Imagine what fans of other sports think when they see this and realize our experts awarded him most valuable player of the league

35. This is who KD was talking about

36. Everybody fucking hates you dude….so fucking much!

37. Flopper back at it again 

    Why can’t he be like Zion, just absorb all the contact and finish? Why does he need to flop?

38. Worst fucking call in the NBA. This shit is cancer.

39. Imagine if Shaq played like this

40. There’s your reigning mvp people.

41. That got called?

42. Basketball terrorist at it again

43. But this sub has telling me for months they wont call fouls for Embiid in the playoffs
