The point is Harden is minding his own business carrying his team to victory why doesn't Embiid do the same? Why is he poking fun at other people when he is basically Mr. Glass at this point, broke his orbital bone from a collision hundreds of NBA players experience on a weekly basis. Even that stepback imitation is a danger to him self, a few more of those and he is gonna dislocate his leg. Embiid reminds me of Dwight, HOF talent but nowhere the focus required to become a HOF player. At least Dwight had a very long and successful career, Embiid is playing on borrowed time. He should stop clowning around and maximize the playing time he has left before his legs give out for good.
Okay so Harden 1st season and all of his OKC career media & ppl loved Beard called the Rockets new up in coming team & him a rising Star Then the flop narrative Then to many freethrows Of course the notorious No Defense (which at times he did have really poor defensive lapses but other players defense isn't highlighted in the degree to which Harden is i.e Curry Lillard Devin Booker etc. guys who are not worldly defenders) Then the rule change Then its only MDA's system that's making him good all the way up to now The Traveling Step-Back narrative Again I watch Lebron travel Giannas travels a ton.. a lot of guys travel on there euro but is not highlighted to the degree it is on Harden people are making whole youtube videos about it. Even national TV attention and topic of shows People won't give Harden his due till he retires or when he brings that 3rd championship back to H-Town
