You know your franchise player is a 7’ freak who flops and throws himself to the ground every chance he gets? He’s literally torn his own teammates ACL flopping. The man flops when he commits flagrant fouls.
Dame is an unabashed foul baiter but Giannis mostly earns his and teams will literally intentionally foul him because of his FT%
Just thought I’d call attention to the same thing the Sixers were maligned for only two days ago. It seems some people getting calls is seen as exposing defenses while with the Sixers and Embiid it’s “foul baiting”
It’s been like this for years, not just 2 days. Fans only see the people calling their teams players floppers and foul baiters even though if you’d go to every game thread you’d see everybody calling every opponent floppers and the refs are against them. Some things you can ignore
lmaooo game threads are the worst for that. Anytime their team blows a lead it’s always due to the refs no matter what happens. If the word “ref” was banned fro, game threads 80% of the comments would be gone
Embiid’s having an amazing season so far but you wouldn’t know it by this sub. The only posts that hit the front page about him are lowlights/minute shit. We are not the same.
I mean I would ignore if there weren’t only lowlights posted on games where he scores 40+ with huge defensive efforts. I just don’t see the same energy for guys in the league not named Joel Embiid. Just wish there was more of a balance.
There’s been all the posts of Giannis having the ball slip out of his hands on a couple late game plays while he’s still played very well. When you’re a top 5 player there’s always going to be haters.
Sure and there was also the tip-in highlight posted. I don’t mind lowlights if there’s also highlights acknowledged. There hasn’t been a positive Embiid highlight posted here in 9 days. Just saying.
People are criticising Embiid because he -wants- to go to the line, so he plays to go to the line, even if he is capable to do the same stuff without it.
Giannis really -doesnt want- to go to the line, yet defences know the only real way to stop him is to make him go to the line.
I completely agree on Dame. He’s absolutely not even trying to finish many times, just baiting fouls on drives. Anyone giving Embiid shit should be saying the same about Dame.
76ers fan posting this is hilarious.

Giannis is completely different though.
This exactly. My issue has never been the issue with the foul calls Giannis gets. I just felt like he gets away with too many offensive fouls.
And yes I’m aware we have the kings of the off arm push off in JB and JT lol
Embiid is just the worst tho
Something something he flops to protect his knees
They posted it because someone posted about embiids free throws lol
Lol people post about Embiid’s FT rate every single day
Suddenly you get your feelings hurt when they do it to your favorite players? Soft.
Giannis earns his by trucking into dudes full speed with his head down? Go take a long walk down a short alley.
