If Joel Embiid NEVER had any injuries… like truly not one injury in his entire career…
This guy is legitimately good enough to be Top 10 ALL-TIME in NBA history.
WHEN HEALTHY.,. he is one of the greatest talents we have ever seen.
You simply cannot argue against this.
Joel Embiid:
"I've dealt with a lot of stuff over my career. I don't complain, I just want to give as much as I can...I know a lot of people might have takes of that I might be lazy or whatever, but every single time I'm on the floor I want to play as hard as possible. I just want to play basketball whether I'm good physically or mentally. I just want to enjoy this moment, just being part of a basketball team that's trying to accomplish something. I didn't want to go home and think about it all summer of what could have been if I was healthy going into the playoffs"
JOEL EMBIID TONIGHT:
33 POINTS
4 REBOUNDS
8 ASSISTS
52% FG
PLAYING THROUGH INJURIES. ON THE ROAD IN BOSTON. ON THE BRINK OF ELIMINATION.
A GUTSY PERFORMANCE BY THE PROCESS.
