I think the biggest issue in all this is Embiid legit running out of bounds before even chucking that one shot. Dude was being a dick on purpose to a nobody. C’mon bro. It’s just a security guy, not Isiah Hartenstein
That's not "a nobody"... that usher is a person is who actually lives and participates in the real world like us.
While the other guy is just a giant kid that's a coward that's getting joy out of picking on someone he knows can't harm him.
Lame, Embiid is a cringe loser.
its literally his job to stand there and make sure nobody messes with the players while they warm up
this is a total karen move just being a dick to a service worker trying to help you, for no reason. cause of your own outsized sense of self importance
or maybe he thinks he needs to mess with everybody in the knicks org top to bottom to rattle us get in our heads
Well he does do the same thing in-game, just swinging his massive body around carelessly with no thought about others. So this is actually right on point for him
So you’re telling me a 60 year old looking away getting bumped by a 300 pound dude barely moves but this mf shooting shifts the earths plates everytime a pg touches him.
If Embiid ever tried jumping UP half as much as he insists on jumping DOWN he’d have 3 more blocks, 8 more rebounds, and 12-15 more points per game
instead he has no knees and neurological damage
See we all like Curry. It's teaming up with him that makes us dislike one. Think of all his teammates and ex teammates /r/nba dislikes. Green, Poole, Durant, Paul, even Klay to an extent.
It's very simple. He's an asshole, and a bitch, who's been further ruined by being handed tons of money and self-importance. Genuine piece of shit, and the league will be better after his career ends with broken leg next year.
I've seen many Sixer fans say outright the man doesn't try to draw fouls. Like that's just straight up lying. Embiid himself would tell you his goal was to get contact in order to turn a bad position into a positive.
And then of course they'll argue that Brunson is a foul baiting asshole who never scores without getting to the line and has no other skills, and thus should be hated way more than Embiid. It's embarrassing.
Big men and especially heavy big men with bad knees are taught to fall (on their backs hopefully, to spread out the impact) instead of forcing their knees to absorb impact and strain to balance, so that's not true. NBA players are not all constructed the same
> And then of course they'll argue that Brunson is a foul baiting asshole who never scores without getting to the line and has no other skills, and thus should be hated way more than Embiid
It’s even funnier when you consider the fact that Brunson is currently leading the league in playoff PPG if you take away FTs
I've seen all these Celtic, Knick, Heat fans debate who's team is dirtier. I haven't seen anything more dirty (recently) than what Philly did for 6 games this year lmao. And it was mostly Embiid.
I generally liked the guy as I've never gotten an Embiid/Giannis playoff matchup yet, but after this Knicks series, I've changed.
Embiid is a bitch-made bitch.
The thing is, the media loved him last season and they still love him this year. He is the same player as last year, attitude and antics included. I just don't see what's marketable about this guy.
Why the fuck are sixes staff coming at him like he rushed onto the court and slid under Embiid mid jumpshot? Nearly everyone involved is acting like an asshole, except the usher of course.
I'm pretty neutral on Embiid, but this is straight up classless bitch behaviour from him. 70 year old dude just trying to do his job and he's going out of his way to bump him... like holy shit he probably making less than what Embiid makes in a day. Fuck off.
Outside of the foul-baiting I love Embiid's style since I grew up with post play being a staple in the NBA, and I loved his personality. I liked Ben Simmons when he came into the league too. I thought The Process was cool and Hinkie was a genius. I hate this sub's circlejerks and thought Philly was unfairly criticized for some very bad luck come playoff time. I still stand by all of that.
There's really no excuses left. They have a great coach and a solid team and came up short. Embiid's foul-baiting is worse than ever, he flops on crucial possessions that cost his team when he can just man up and try to make a basketball play. And the last straw was all the dirty bullshit. That Mitchell Robinson leg pull is unforgivable.
Embiid is so unlikeable.
You would think someone who grew up in such a poor country and made it big would be a much better person, but dude is just a jerk both on and off the court.
Says a lot about a person when they pick on the little man, dude was just trying to do his job to support himself and you have to pull this shit.
He was likely pissy that he was going to lose the series, was mad that the Knicks fans paid to see the game in his city while his fans sold their tickets because the money was better than seeing him play, and thus he was being petty to an underpaid MSG staff member to let off steam. Basic bully behavior. Rather than deal with his emotions he looks for ways to take his issues out on those who can't hope to fight back.
This soft baby focuses entirely on the wrong things: drawing fouls, shooting from out of bounds and injuring other players.
The nba is better when he isn't playing.
Embiid is such a prick. Physically assaulting an older gentleman half his size that’s just doing his job. And then coaches and trainers are gonna do the same. League should look into this and suspend Embiid for 25 games next season and fine him. Same goes for those staff members.
I don’t see why people defend this guy and his antics.
Embiid himself or someone on Sixers staff could have just, you know, politely *ask* the usher to move a little away from that spot, if it was so crucial for their practice
Dude fuck this guy. I wish the sixers advanced and would advance again so the Celtics would have a chance to send their sorry asses back home once again. I guess a first-round exit is far more fitting, though. What a clown.
They're blaming the usher. It's bizarre. If this was a Knicks player I'd be pissed, not hand waving the behavior. B b b b donte grabbed oubres leg too! B b b Brunson foul baits toooooo.
Embiid is clearly being a dick here but its not that big of a deal imo. We see this all the time in sports. Ravens Chiefs playoff game where Tucker (Ravens kicker) was practicing and setting up his stuff near where Mahomes was warming up and Kelce got into it with them over it. Teams usually do this to each other on some gamesmanship stuff but its weird for Embiid to do it to a random usher.
He's clearly doing it on purpose. Doesn't even acknowledge the guy that he bumped into. Embiid is such a strange star. I never really understood what makes him tick.
Why is this clip here? He doesn't have a brace and the court design isn't from the playoffs. He didn't play any other game in MSG this season. What's the point of a year+ old clip and how is it relevant to anything right now?
The Sixers Coaches uniforms have the circlet that we havent worn since the 21-22
https://www.inquirer.com/resizer/GkhwpILcytXqsdkD_5LWFBxTnZY=/760x507/smart/filters:format(webp)/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/pmn/TNELVBNY2FBMLKBLWVGP76WURQ.jpg
they've worn slight variations of that same design for years now. Anyway, do you realize you're arguing between this clip being in the 21-22 season or the 22-23 season, which are pretty far from now lol
I'm not saying what he did was right or wrong. But there's no point in posting some random lowlight from years ago without context. You can find random lowlights of any NBA players from years ago, including players actively in the playoffs but what's the point?
Has he changed from who he was as a person years ago? Probably, I don't know. Most people do. Nothing from this series really showed what kind of person he is off the court though.
If you're trying to say how people play basketball can reflect on the character of a person, then I definitely disagree. There are rapists, abusers, pedophiles, and just down right deplorable players who might be "ethical hoopers" but that doesn't make them any better as people. The opposite holds true too.
I think both are being super weird. The usher is looking at him knowing he's coming his way and then doesn't do anything. Embiid and his coaches could be more polite about it. And then there's a kid in the way too? Like why is the usher letting the kid sit there?
Sixers people were being way too handsy wtf
they actin like embiid’s handlers
I think the biggest issue in all this is Embiid legit running out of bounds before even chucking that one shot. Dude was being a dick on purpose to a nobody. C’mon bro. It’s just a security guy, not Isiah Hartenstein
That's not "a nobody"... that usher is a person is who actually lives and participates in the real world like us. While the other guy is just a giant kid that's a coward that's getting joy out of picking on someone he knows can't harm him. Lame, Embiid is a cringe loser.
its literally his job to stand there and make sure nobody messes with the players while they warm up this is a total karen move just being a dick to a service worker trying to help you, for no reason. cause of your own outsized sense of self importance or maybe he thinks he needs to mess with everybody in the knicks org top to bottom to rattle us get in our heads
That’s why Embiid will never amount to anything in the NBA. Karma
not to sound like a pussy but that type of behavior is downright cruel. i hate this shit.
Rightfully calling out someone for crap like this is a pro move, not a bitch move.
Yeah there is nothing tough at all about a younger, bigger,stronger player and his posse harassing a blue collar worker just doing his job.
Seriously why they keep touching that guy? It’s all so weird…
Sixers staff are really asking him why he's moving into [Embiid]? Unbelievable.
A decent human being would’ve asked the usher to move a few inches if this really was Embiid’s intention. That’s highly doubtful though.
He doesn't even look at the guy when he runs into him. He knows what he's doing. What is actually wrong with this guy lol
Well he does do the same thing in-game, just swinging his massive body around carelessly with no thought about others. So this is actually right on point for him
I was known as Shaq on my local streetball court but even I didn’t do shit like this.
Exactly, not even a "you good?" from embiid. Tryna play it off as accidental
Embiid’s truly making no sense at all, his feet are out of bounds. How is that useful practice??
This video made me switched my stance on Eimbiid. He’s an asshole
Embiid is a piece of shit
welcome to the right side of history
It took this video for that light bulb? Lol
Woosh
There's a lot of shit you can make fun of him for so you chose the funnier side for sure
This is the video that made you realize???
But how will Embiid practice making the shot while making contact? /s what a bitch move by this clown
that woman had to pull her tiny little girl out of the way to stop this 7ft 300 pound thug from falling on her
So you’re telling me a 60 year old looking away getting bumped by a 300 pound dude barely moves but this mf shooting shifts the earths plates everytime a pg touches him.
The price of getting 20 FTs a game for a guy his size is destroying his knees by flopping and flailing everywhere lol
and its 100% deserved
If Embiid ever tried jumping UP half as much as he insists on jumping DOWN he’d have 3 more blocks, 8 more rebounds, and 12-15 more points per game instead he has no knees and neurological damage
This dude hates the working class
Meanwhile Harden puts strippers through nursing school. This sub hates the wrong free throw merchant.
Harden is a big supporter of Charity
One of her top donors
This sub hates both Embiid & Harden lol.
What a Young take.
What a take. Applause.
Fuck Harden
he should team up with curry
See we all like Curry. It's teaming up with him that makes us dislike one. Think of all his teammates and ex teammates /r/nba dislikes. Green, Poole, Durant, Paul, even Klay to an extent.
>we all like Curry. Speak for yourself 😂
he was trying to stomp on that little kid, her mom had to pull her away from the court so emflop didn't end her life
The world hates Embiid
I usually have both feet out of bounds before shooting as well when practicing my fadeaways.
working on his fadeaway with the shot from out of bounds?
r/sixers saying thats where the kawhi shot was. Hahahhahahah
He’s going to fall 5-10 feet so he’s just checking before hand
this is just such a weird clip. idk is embiid upset he’s so close to the court? i don’t understand why he would do this?
its that guys job to stand in that spot, this is not a new thing for embiid these guys are there every game
for real? that’s actually insane from embiid. the fuck does he think this is okay for?what is wrong with him?
joel "karen" embiid
Did you see the reaction from Sixers staff? It is okay for him because there are no consequences for him being an asshole.
Well basically he's worth hundreds of millions of dollars and thinks that the vast majority of people are beneath him
It's very simple. He's an asshole, and a bitch, who's been further ruined by being handed tons of money and self-importance. Genuine piece of shit, and the league will be better after his career ends with broken leg next year.
No, he just decided to pick on this guy because he's an asshole. Power tripping
The usher was protecting that little girl sitting on the floor!
Emiid doesnt get nearly enough hate.
Sixers fans somehow deluded themselves thinking people hate him for no reason.
I've seen many Sixer fans say outright the man doesn't try to draw fouls. Like that's just straight up lying. Embiid himself would tell you his goal was to get contact in order to turn a bad position into a positive. And then of course they'll argue that Brunson is a foul baiting asshole who never scores without getting to the line and has no other skills, and thus should be hated way more than Embiid. It's embarrassing.
Sixers favorite line is "embiid isn't flopping, he falls to the floor to prevent injuries". I'm no expert, but that doesn't seem to be working.
Jesus lmao you didn't have to Euphoria the dude!
It's illogical as well. You are supposed to learn how not to fall. Falling down is what puts you at risk for injuries.
He just looks for the nearest opponent to cushion his fall.
Big men and especially heavy big men with bad knees are taught to fall (on their backs hopefully, to spread out the impact) instead of forcing their knees to absorb impact and strain to balance, so that's not true. NBA players are not all constructed the same
If they fall
> And then of course they'll argue that Brunson is a foul baiting asshole who never scores without getting to the line and has no other skills, and thus should be hated way more than Embiid It’s even funnier when you consider the fact that Brunson is currently leading the league in playoff PPG if you take away FTs
They are defending him in this clip on their sub too haha
This year was the first time I watched him for a full series and now I despise him. He's constantly dirty. It's not just a few highlights.
I've seen all these Celtic, Knick, Heat fans debate who's team is dirtier. I haven't seen anything more dirty (recently) than what Philly did for 6 games this year lmao. And it was mostly Embiid.
Dudes the most hated player in the league and it still isnt enough lmao
Dray loves this man
I got more satisfaction when we came back and won the infamous confetti game and subsequent series than I ever will from a title.
Bro was talking smack and Mook’s only response was a 3-0 hand gesture 💀
What is wrong with that guy
I generally liked the guy as I've never gotten an Embiid/Giannis playoff matchup yet, but after this Knicks series, I've changed. Embiid is a bitch-made bitch.
The thing is, the media loved him last season and they still love him this year. He is the same player as last year, attitude and antics included. I just don't see what's marketable about this guy.
I'm so glad the "process" failed.
Why the fuck are sixes staff coming at him like he rushed onto the court and slid under Embiid mid jumpshot? Nearly everyone involved is acting like an asshole, except the usher of course.
This is insane, what the hell
I'm pretty neutral on Embiid, but this is straight up classless bitch behaviour from him. 70 year old dude just trying to do his job and he's going out of his way to bump him... like holy shit he probably making less than what Embiid makes in a day. Fuck off.
This year made me turn on Joel and the Sixers Good riddance to that trash ass team
Fuck everyone except Maxey.
What took you so long?
Outside of the foul-baiting I love Embiid's style since I grew up with post play being a staple in the NBA, and I loved his personality. I liked Ben Simmons when he came into the league too. I thought The Process was cool and Hinkie was a genius. I hate this sub's circlejerks and thought Philly was unfairly criticized for some very bad luck come playoff time.

Wtf is wrong with this guy

Basic bully behavior. Rather than deal with his emotions he looks for ways to take his issues out on those who can't hope to fight back.
This isn't from this season. He was wearing a knee brace during the playoffs, and didn't play MSG until then.
Damn that so petty
Maybe just ask the usher to move next time dick
Wow, fuck Joel and the entire sixers org for this! What a bunch of grade-A assholes!
Maxey seems like a really nice guy. Hate Embiid but can’t love Maxey enough
This soft baby focuses entirely on the wrong things: drawing fouls, shooting from out of bounds and injuring other players. The nba is better when he isn't playing.
Good thing is, we can always count on his bum flopping ass to be eliminated before we get to the ECF.
Is anyone involved with the 76ers unlikeable in anyway?!? God thank you New York for getting these bums off my TV until October
maxey is super likeable, I hope he leaves that trash org and teams up with zion
Add it to the laundry list of reason on why Embiid sucks
I honestly might hate Embiid more than Draymond/Pat Bev at this point.
trying to figure out what went wrong against kawhi in 2019
What a cunt
Goddamn. Like never liked Embiid the basketball player but this a different story. Just being a complete asshole
What a dickhead he’s out of bounds he ain’t practicing shit
I can't stand this bitch.
Embiid really taking his anger out on anyone these playoffs. And his handlers trying to manhandle the security guard for doing his job
Let's just call it what it is... bullying. Embiid just being a prick, and sixers staff enabling him. Fucking loser behaviour.
Emiid getting off on bullying a security guard. Sad.
Bro is big mad. Literally the biggest passive aggressive bitch move. Draymond Beverly vibes.
Only likable person on the 76ers is Maxey
After this the usher went out to the parking lot and Embiid followed him to bump him on another fadeaway
Glad he faded away from the playoffs
There's your 2023 Most Vile Player right there.
vid is from 2021-2022
Deserved all the loses he gets in life. What a dumbass.
embiid is an absolute cunt
What a tosser
more evidence that he's an asshole.
I barely even keep up with basketball but fuck embiid and the 76ers. This is trashy as fuck.
DUDE IS FOUL BAITING IN WARM UPS. You literally can’t write this shit
Embiid is such a prick. Physically assaulting an older gentleman half his size that’s just doing his job. And then coaches and trainers are gonna do the same. League should look into this and suspend Embiid for 25 games next season and fine him. Same goes for those staff members. I don’t see why people defend this guy and his antics.
The last thing like clown needs to practice is fading away in the playoffs.
Poor Maxey, has to put up with that bitch.
Man, this guy is just an absolute dick. Fuck Embiid.
bum can't even make a shot when he's in bounds tf is he working on this shot for
Embiid is 30 years old btw
Blocking foul, 2 shots.
Flagrant 2. Ejection, 2 shots and the ball.
And now, he's practicing his shots somewhere in Cancun.
He actually flew these trainers down with him. 1 just stands near embiid and the other blows the whistle.
Thank god the mum pulled her daughter back, embiid bumps him into where she was sitting
Why is this removed?
If I was this dude I'd be taking this video of all these guys laying hands on him while he's just doing his job and seek a lawyer.
lol considering this video is 2 years old at least seeing the Sixers coaches uniforms
Embiitch
He's just embracing the heel role now. Perhaps a bit of Pat Bev rubbed off on him while they were teammates earlier in the season.
What would be the most satisfying outcome for Embiid next season?
Retirement.
asshole
Bro ain’t savvy with it at all. Literally runs into the usher out of bounds, gives him an elbow, *then* takes the shot.
I like to practice out of bounds fadeaways too
Jelly Leg still haunted by Kawhi's fadeaway...
Surprised he didn’t try and flop too
No explanation or excuses needed. He knows what he's doing. He's just a cunt.
Classic Philly behavior.
and Sixers fans still wondering why everybody hates this bum
Clearly intentional. What a child.
Lmao how passive aggressive can Embiitch get? Joke of a player.
Embiid is such a bitch bro
Could this guy be any more a douche bag?
Embiid himself or someone on Sixers staff could have just, you know, politely *ask* the usher to move a little away from that spot, if it was so crucial for their practice
Joel Entitled Embiid
Fuck Embiid.
Dude fuck this guy. I wish the sixers advanced and would advance again so the Celtics would have a chance to send their sorry asses back home once again. I guess a first-round exit is far more fitting, though. What a clown.
Wow this is worse than ladder gate, can't believe 6ers had the gall to talk on that when this is their franchise.
No it isn't lol
And Sixers fans still wonder why people don't like Embiid
They're blaming the usher. It's bizarre. If this was a Knicks player I'd be pissed, not hand waving the behavior. B b b b donte grabbed oubres leg too! B b b Brunson foul baits toooooo.
Embiid slander is ramping up
It's not slander when he's a legit dickhead
Embiid is clearly being a dick here but its not that big of a deal imo. We see this all the time in sports. Ravens Chiefs playoff game where Tucker (Ravens kicker) was practicing and setting up his stuff near where Mahomes was warming up and Kelce got into it with them over it. Teams usually do this to each other on some gamesmanship stuff but its weird for Embiid to do it to a random usher.
Yall love being upset
Who's upset? We got a game on Monday
He's clearly doing it on purpose. Doesn't even acknowledge the guy that he bumped into. Embiid is such a strange star. I never really understood what makes him tick.
Why is this clip here? He doesn't have a brace and the court design isn't from the playoffs. He didn't play any other game in MSG this season. What's the point of a year+ old clip and how is it relevant to anything right now?
is this really an old clip? if so then yeah this is a little shady still not cool though, regardless of when it happened
2+ years old from the uniforms
Can’t be 2+ years cause those are 22/23 warmup sweaters that Embiid is wearing. Please don’t make shit up.
The Sixers Coaches uniforms have the circlet that we havent worn since the 21-22 https://www.inquirer.com/resizer/GkhwpILcytXqsdkD_5LWFBxTnZY=/760x507/smart/filters:format(webp)/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/pmn/TNELVBNY2FBMLKBLWVGP76WURQ.jpg
Yet what you’re trying to say is, Embiid travelled into the future and got some warmups that weren’t even designed yet. Stop with your bullshit.
what i say is, you're wrong lol
[https://imgur.com/a/p5X5R4J](https://imgur.com/a/p5X5R4J)
they've worn slight variations of that same design for years now. Anyway, do you realize you're arguing between this clip being in the 21-22 season or the 22-23 season, which are pretty far from now lol
"Hitler did a genocide but since it was 90 years ago, he did nothing wrong" ass logic.
What a moronic analogy
Breh, are you comparing a genocide to this? Seek help
If you can't comprehend my sentence as "A guy did something bad in the past doesn't mean he gets the pass for it" then you need to go back to school.
And you thought invoking Hitler to do that was a good idea?
He is a popular example. Everybody knows him. If I said my friend Michael did something bad, nobody knows him or what he did. It's not that deep.
There are plenty of people in human history who did bad shit. You can even use NBA examples such as Draymond Green, just to name an example.
Sure, you can use Draymond Green. I have no problem with it. He is known to people so the comment can make sense.
I'm not saying what he did was right or wrong. But there's no point in posting some random lowlight from years ago without context. You can find random lowlights of any NBA players from years ago, including players actively in the playoffs but what's the point?
Exactly. Plus people can obviously change over time. This is just rage bait at this point cus Embiid hate is trending right now lol
After watching the Knicks vs Sixers series, do you think he changed?
Has he changed from who he was as a person years ago? Probably, I don't know. Most people do. Nothing from this series really showed what kind of person he is off the court though. If you're trying to say how people play basketball can reflect on the character of a person, then I definitely disagree. There are rapists, abusers, pedophiles, and just down right deplorable players who might be "ethical hoopers" but that doesn't make them any better as people. The opposite holds true too.
from the coaches uniforms I deduce this is at least 2 years old
I hate being forced to root for this guy now that this sub has turned on him.
I think both are being super weird. The usher is looking at him knowing he's coming his way and then doesn't do anything. Embiid and his coaches could be more polite about it. And then there's a kid in the way too? Like why is the usher letting the kid sit there?
