The Philadelphia 76ers are ked by two young stars in Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid. The two of them are ranked highly in the league as they are both supremely talented and they deserve the praise they receive.
As far as postseason awards go, Simmons received a lot of love as he was named to the All-Defensive First Team and he was named to the All-NBA Third Team. As for Embiid? He did not make either team and that did not sit well with the big man.
Embiid took to Twitter to voice his displeasure and he has a warning for the rest of the league. He sounds like he is ready to get to work and have a terrific season on the floor.
I’m being treated like I got deported!!! We’ll see next year

Embiid still had a terrific season in terms of numbers. He averaged 23 points and 11.6 rebounds and he also three in 3.0 assists. That comes with having to share the floor with a traditional big man in Al Horford and he had to deal with constant double teams every night. He deserved some type of award for his production this season. [lawrence-related id=37738,37732,37727]
