How is it not close? :lupe:

You may find KAT's game more aesthetic, but the results are basically the same. Without a minutes restriction Embiid would average 25-30ppg just the same as KAT, Boogie and AD, with only AD being close to him defensively.

When we gonna talk about defense too my breh :mjgrin: The Sixers defensive rating with the Young Gawd on the court is double digits...only giving up 97 pts per 100 possessions which is in line with what he did last year, the Wolves rating with KAT on the floor is 120 :dead:

He better be the best offensive big, cause he's one of the worst defensive.
Embid shot 46% on the year in 31 games and only 25mpg, which should increase his FG% due to rest and no back to backs. KAT shot 54% and they both score from the exact same spots. Like I said, IT AINT CLOSE.


U ain't watching KAT right now?????? He shut the paint down today and was challenging everything, its a good start :sadcam:

Early on this season, OKC be taking too many (ill-advised) jumpers, and seem to regress to jacking up premature if not hero ball shots in crunch time instead of running plays (or running them all the way through if they are running plays). And not just that last Melo 3. Both him and PG13 took some iffy shots late in the game (but early in the possession) before Russel's driving cut the lead. Even Patterson's semi-contested 3 off Russel's drive felt premature.

He was a rookie last year on a less talented team, if he can get his minutes up he'll be scoring just as much as KAT.



I watched he played well, but they still gave up a ton of points in the paint, the gap on defense between them is much bigger than the offensive one. When Embiid goes off the floor the Sixers go from elite defensively to bottom 5, when KAT comes off the floor the Wolves actually play better defense, which is a trend from last year as well :wow:


There's only 1 two way lord of light at Center, and it's the Cameroonian Killa :blessed:
