2 things..
1.) Oliver Miller was a beast when he entered the league. Now not literally but he was like one of the first people to get fat while in the league (that I can remember)
2.) You don't seem to really have a understanding of how basketball was played before todays version. It featured BIG MEN. And the
average big man could do most of what you see from Embiid today
To the nay sayers, Rik Smitts wasn't doing everything Embiid is doing IF he was encouraged to shoot 3's he would have shot more, but his jumper was automatic. Avi Sabonis from Portland.. he was equally as capable.
My point is even bummy ass Oliver Miller would be better or equal to a lot of players in the league today. Amir Johnson comes to mind
