I hadn’t really spent that much time watching him before these playoffs. What a phenomenal player. Triple-Doubles in his sleep. I can’t remember another player like him. Embiid is a great player, he ain’t Jokic. Just wow.

To play overseas you have to be fundamentally sound.. or you’ll go tone deaf. Those euro players learned from jump the basics of team ball.. So when they got to the NBA it’s like shooting buckets with a scope. He’s Arvydas Sabonis without the wear and tear.

I think most of us are guilty of that, not seeing him play much. That's what the playoffs do, put you in the spotlight. Also, the west coast hurts his viewership and popularity. This guy is fantastic. He is bigger and more physical than I thought he was.
He isnt the fastest but when he dribbles a ball, its like watching a normal sized person dribble a tennis ball. His fade away shot is the best I think Ive ever seen outside of the GOAT. He literally puts the ball behind his head and chucks it falling back. Hits it more than not.
Miami is red hot right now, which makes that Knicks series less painful when seeing what they are doing to Boston. It should be a great championship series with those 2 teams. Jokic vs Butler.

First player in NBA history to have 30+ points, 20+ rebounds and 10+ assists in an NBA finals game.
