Heavyweight Championship Fight: KAT vs Embiid

[Ca$H]

It's been a while. Duncan vs KG, Duncan vs Shaq, and now finally KAT vs Embiid.

If Embiid stays healthy, it could be a great rivalry.
Don't sleep on Porzingis either, or Noel onces he gets to the right situation.

(Though he is less offensive and more defensive.)
Couple that with AD/Drummond/Cousins

There's quite a few compelling big men.

Okafor got the best of KAT in their H2H last season

KAT is better however..

Unfortunately, Thibs will put Dieng on Embiid. He prefers KAT play more like a pf than a center.

KAT will be feasting on Ilyasova and Covington with Okafor taking a rest day

Joel Embiid is going to be a monster if he can manage to stay healthy. He's already shown he's better than KAT defensively. He has a lot of nice natural talent and a budding offensive skillset that is only going to get bigger and better. Embiid, if he stays healthy (which has to keep being reiterated), is going to surpass KAT by next season.

Compelling based on today's standards, maybe...

None of these guys will end up on Shaq, Duncan, KG's level... nope. And KG isn't a traditional big and Shaq and Duncan are just scratching the surface of great bigs throughout the years.

The league has gone dry on bigs for multiple reasons, not the least of which is that everyone wants to be flashy and play facing up.

Hell these guys might be lucky to reach peak Dwight Howard level.

Basketball players are just dropping off in general... of course there are exceptions like LeBron, Curry, Durant... but holy damn it seems like it gets worse yearly.
