Because he is such a fragile player

Dude should've never gotten the chance to get 50. Should've gotten a flagrant 2 after that bush league play to Mitchell Robinson.

What hes doing out there, under the pressure hes under, with Bells Palsy or whatever eye sight issues hes having, massive respect to him.

He's had to play through so many injuries. Harden was mostly healthy when he underperformed. Bro just dropped 50 with half his face paralyzed. He's one of the most talented Centers ever. Harden was no mid-range threat like Joel is. He's a 7-footer who shoots over 50% on long 2s and at a high volume. Gotta respect it.

Yea wtf.
Embiids should have been a flagrant 2 easily. That’s literally the easiest way to truly injure a big man and it was so blatant and uncalled for.
Grabbing someone’s leg while they’re jumping? The fvck

Vaxx claims another.
I support him for struggling as a vaxx victim.

Completely different situation too. Morris tried to take out Jokic’s knee while Embiid was just throwing a toddler tantrum his back to back flops weren’t called. Anyone who thinks these situations are similar is delusional.

Was it deliberate by Jokic?
Was Morris injured?
Did you read the post I was responding too?

Exactly. So even you see why this comparison is bad right? You realized it's bad and now you're scrambling to ignore all context so it can seem more like a side to side comparison.
"Hey I only responded to how the actions were deliberate, any additional context is not allowed and just proves you can't read".

He wasnt trying to be slick or do something compromising in that instance. He was scrambling to make a spontaneous play and not thinking about how dangerous it could be. He was just trying to show some kind of resistance besides just sitting on the ground while a guy scores.
In hindsight it was dangerous but in the moment it wasnt malicious.
That's fair if he showed any type of remorse instead of just making more excuses
"Mitchell Robinson jumping and trying to land, (I'm) trying to make sure he doesn't land on me because, obviously, we know the history that I have with (Jonathan) Kuminga landing on my knee," Embiid said in Bontemps' report. "So I kind of had some flashbacks, when he came down to it. It was unfortunate. I didn't mean to hurt anybody."
"In those situations, I've got to protect myself, because I've been in way too many situations where I'm always the recipient of the bad end of it. So yeah, it was unfortunate, but physical game."

Duffy is a known Jokic nut hugger. That's the only context I intended in my the reply. Just highlighting another cracka contradiction.
I don't care about whatever other "context" you are crying about, that's for damn sure.
I LOVE the fact you hate Joel, keep it up

Oh, I know that now. No context that goes against your agenda anyway.
And don't put 'context' in quotations like I said something asinine. Here I'll quote my post here:
Completely different situation too. Morris tried to take out Jokic’s knee while Embiid was just throwing a toddler tantrum his back to back flops weren’t called. Anyone who thinks these situations are similar is delusional.
That's very relevant.
