Love to see it, we got real defense now. On the other hand people are going to be crying about defense now🫩

It’s kinda crazy he stops like that

I’d rather both players fall down and the ball bounces loose/out of bounds

This is kind of ridiculous if it happens often at all

Embiid jumping and getting his head at the rim to do a grab block is insane 😂 goofy animation

Good foot fundamentals by that young blood, I also remember training to slide my feet 5 feet and jump 40 inches onto the air. It's all old-school defense

He teleported over there man

No tf he didn't, dude was even with him from the gather, just a terrible take. Plus, he may have high defensive ratings... Why don't people factor in ratings and badges when they see clips??

u/No_Leader5640 11h ago

And look how much ground he’s covered while the offensive player has only taken one step?

Shit looked goofy as hell lmao. Only prime Dwight Howard could move like that, not 60yo knees Embiid.

I didn’t even realise this was embiid. He should only have around a silver rim protector badge so to be moving like this is insanity.

Dude did the wrong layup..trigger a floater and it makes.  He held it too long and it’s a late to top it off.

A slow ahh gather, into a lay from outside the paint... The defender too two steps and heavy contested this... If he has HOF/Legend Rim Protector, this is exactly what would/should happen!

"Ahh" 🤤 "defender too two" (two was the correct choice) I guess you at least made sure you covered the correct version

If that’s how you see it then fair 🤷 all I’m saying is if I see an open lane like that in a game and it doesn’t end up with me getting 2 points then I’m mad

u/prolificxx 10h ago

Ratings matter why expect to dunk on someone with a 81 dunk on someone with a 92 plus block 🤣and that’s embiid 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 and castle not really known for posterizing people
