A bit more than a year ago in a game thread I was saying Giannis looks as tall as Embiid and to me he doesn't look any weaker. At the time it was laughed at. What say you now?

Other interesting questions as far as strength is concerned:

Marjanovic?
Adams?

Old timers like Malone, Wilt or Shaq compared to these guys?

Embiid? the same Embiid that gets bullied by Al Horford?

Marjonovic is not that strong he's just really tall

He struggles to post up small forwards

Embiid looks strong though. The game I was commenting on must have been like 15 months ago. Giannis.. next to Embiid... looked just as big and just as strong. Well, I'm a fan of Embiid... but I said Giannis looks as someone who may become stringer and more successful. I remember this opinon of mine was ridiculed.

I'm not asking basketball ability though. Just pure strength.

And he is like 7'4. There is a good chance he is strong.

Embid is probably stronger, giannis better conditioned. Meaning embid probably gas stronger(heavier lifts) but drop the weight some and giannis does more sets

i think embiid is naturally stronger in the weight room but giannis just wants it more in the game.

Mentally? Giannis

Physically? Giannis


Embiid is a weak fragile bitch... No way he's stronger than Giannis in the weight room or just functionally.

giannis is more athletic but embiid is bigger and stronger.


giannis maxed out his frame with the amount of muscle he's carrying right now.

Embiid would knock Giannis out.

No way Giannis is doing his back down dunks on EmGOAT

Probably Embiid, dude is way bigger. Giannis is obviously the far better basketball player though.

Im so nba'd out

What is this a joke or something...


One pops peds like popeye pops spinach

One is 100% natural and would cave in the other's chest with one blow...

Giannis was ragdolling Andre Drummond the last game and will bang with anybody, Embiid likes to float around the 3pt line. I like Giannis regardless

Giannis has better motor and is more explosive which makes him appear stronger.
