He makes it look effortless.


People are saying he's raw, and from a skillset standpoint I don't think he is, the problem is he's just not strong enough yet to get off the other things in his repertoire .

What I am now finding out is that both his parents were pretty decent players themselves. Meaning he aint one of these super tall guys that just started playing 3 years ago, or only played b/c of their size. This dude is a basketball head with loads of skill and inherent ability, with freakish size and fluidity. Dude has probably the highest ceiling in the draft.

My concern was him being potentially soft. But after watching, dude aint afraid to mix it up in the paint:leon:.

and to be clear, that was like 90% of the dudes in the knicks team thread...

His older brother was a professional player and has basically handled his development, which explains why he's so advanced for his age.

He's definitely a player, all those people questioning the pick or booing/laughing at him are going to look stupid as fukk in a few years.

To be fair...Malta was going off of people with similar injury & the info that the 76ers were releasing.

It made sense to believe Embiid was okay. However, only now we can surmise that the 76ers knew they had a lemon long before they revealed it to the public.
