Jokic and Embiid armies assemble. 76ers/Nuggets about to start on espn.

Someone gets ammo.

GET IT DONE, JOKER

The amount of traffic Embiid plays in makes it hard to see why people are shocked he takes free throws. He is hit(by modern standards) every other play driving and facing doubles and triples.

You could probably foul both he and Jokic out in 25 minutes guarding each other if you went by the book.

[NBAGOAT]

cant wait

[Gotterdammerung]

From Hakeem vs Robinson to O'Neal vs Yao to Embiid vs Jokic

Tried to tell y’all…

[Kblaze8855]

I swear Harden must have thought DJ was Embiid the way he hurried to feed the post before the expected miss.

[fourkicks44]

It can't be said enough how exciting it is to see the two best players in the world are not only centers, but revolutionary centers.

It's been well over 25 years since any 2 centers have had this empact on the game

Exactly. Nobody wants to hear that tho.

Seems like the same voices that say Embiid shoots too many threes and needs to post up more get pissed of he gets foul calls playing inside.

[Shogon]

The thing about those lead runner outlet passes like that is if you keep looking for them and keep hitting them, your teammates know you're looking... and they're going to sprint harder more consistently.

So underutilized league wide.

Jokic is a better player than Embiid on the offensive side of the ball.

[Shogon]

James Harden is such a gigantic no integrity having piece of shit and I hope he implodes in the playoffs again.

[Kawhi_Why_Not]

Thybulle is a good Simmons replacement defensively. Plus you don't need Simmons dribbling and passing with harden around.

[jlip]

It would not be a hyperbole to say that Jokic is currently the best passer in the league regardless of position.

[Shogon]

Embiid is a better scorer and better defender. Nothing new is learned by this game.

[Axe]

The sixers have already made 22 of their 26 free throws so far compared to nuggets 11/16.

[jlip]

Steph Cousins!

[Proctor]

Hyland and Cousins :roll::applause:

Embiid eating hardwood even when he's on the offensive end

[Mask the Embiid]

cant wait til they take boogie and bones out

[tontoz]

Just turned on the game to see Embiid take a fall. Ouch

[Shogon]

If this is ruled a flagrant the league is softer than ever.

[Shogon]

Unreal.

[Kblaze8855]

The rare back to back everyone’s pissed no call.

[tontoz]

Jokic with the heave lol.

[Proctor]

That Jokic shot was ridiculous. Refs are atrocious.

[Spurs m8]

Harden with the game losing turnover :roll::roll::roll::roll:

[Proctor]

I just love how Harden ruined Philly :bowdown: :lol

[fourkicks44]

Messy ending.

Sixers beaten by a skinny kid from Delaware :oldlol:

And the low iq arrogance of the fans when they landed him

:roll::roll::roll:

Big fella should of shot the 3 that’s as open as youre gonna get. Hats off to bones hyland

Messy ending.

And a fat serb

[SouBeachTalents]

Benches were the difference tonight.

Denver: 48 points on 18/33
Philly: 14 points on 4/24

[plowking]

Big fella should of shot the 3 that as open as u gonna get. Hats off to bones hyland

I barely browse these forums, but christ you're salty about Jokic. Sad shit.

[FKAri]

It's not even about that. It's that they aren't consistent with their own rules. "guy landed badly" = flagrant. If someone tries to take a guy's head off but he's able to land alright it's totally legal. It's all optics.

Earlier today i was listening to the Zach Lowe podcast and he was saying how well Denver's bench has been playing. Look like they came up huge.

Got this on DVR. Looks like it was a good one.

[Axe]

Another double-double from joker, showing why he could be worthy of another mvp award again. :bowdown:

'Bu-but ja morant.' :cry:

You're absolutely right.

[Shogon]

Who would ever guess? It's almost like the best team wins or something and that it's not about individuals in the overwhelming majority of games.

[tontoz]

Rumor is that Murray and MPJ could be back before the playoffs.

Pretty sure he was saying Embiid should have taken the 3 instead of passing to the corner.

[Shogon]

Watching it back ^

I honestly think that no call was the correct call both ways. Just because Jokic flopped a little and threw up a mean facial expression doesn't mean he was fouled there. And I don't think he fouled Embiid on the other end, either. Good two no calls imo.

[fourkicks44]

Jokic was -9

Hyland and Thybulle were both +16 :eek:

[tanibanana]

Both MVP frontrunners under performed in their own standard. But since they are almost equal in stats and Jokic got the win, Jokic gets the nod. In context its really the Nuggets bench.
