Think the most insane part about Embiid last night is that, when you add up the total points he was responsible for, he scored or assisted on 78 of Philadelphia’s 105 points.
74% of the total offense. – 12:57 PM

I don’t have the energy to deal with people who want to talk down Embiid’s game from last night bc “he shot a ton of FTs!” or “PHI is only .500”.
He was dominant w/ or w/o the free throws. Take them away and he still had 39 points! And PHI record has no bearing on that one game! – 8:48 AM

Matisse Thybulle on Embiid: “My friends were texting me after the game, they were like “It’s like a 2k stat line”. Like, it’s not one of those things that you see in a real basketball game…It’s pretty ridiculous, if I’m being honest. It’s amazing.” – 12:08 AM

PJ Tucker was asked whether Embiid said anything about his performance during the game.
Tucker: “Jo don’t say nothing. Just called the play he wanted.”
Reporter: “So he just kept calling his own number?
Tucker: “They’re all for him anyways. It’s just which one do you wanna run.” – 12:04 AM

Sixers beat Utah, 105-98. They are 7-7.
I’ve seen players carry their teams to victory before. I’m not sure any have quite been to that level, though.

Joel Embiid, with 59-11-8 (and 7 blocks), is just 2nd center ever to go for at least 55 points, 10 rebounds, and 8 assists. Other guy was Wilt Chamberlain, who did it twice, both times for the Warriors, and once against the 76ers. He tied Wilt for most points in a 55-10-8 game. – 10:04 PM

Embiid’s up to 33/8/8 on 12-20 shooting, with Sixers +14 in his 26 minutes of play, -14 in the 10 he’s been on bench. Maxey’s shooting just 8-20 and is in foul trouble. Sixers 4-18 from 3. Jazz with 15 o-boards. Other than that… – 9:21 PM

Joel Embiid has 24 points on 8-14 shooting, but he also has five TOs, has struggled at times with Utah’s perimeter shooting bigs, and has gotten virtually no help from his teammates as the Jazz lead 57-51 at the half. Lead would be more but Utah’s shooting 5-13 from the line. – 8:40 PM

3 consecutive turnovers to end the half for Embiid, which takes away from what was otherwise a pretty great start for him — 24-4-4 to keep the Sixers in a game where they’re not playing too well.

More on this storyline
Serge Ibaka then asked Giannis Antetokounmpo to pick his best starting fives from international players and the United States. International: Luka Doncic, Evan Fournier, Giannis, Nikola Jokic, and Joel Embiid. USA: Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, LeBron James, Kevin Durant, and Bam Adebayo. “We beat them! Who’s gonna guard Embiid? Adebayo? Okay, that makes sense. Who’s gonna guard Jokic, and who’s gonna guard me?” Giannis talked about the outcome of the imaginary game. -via BasketNews / November 14, 2022
Does Giannis feel like the face of the NBA? “No, I am one of the faces of the league. LeBron is still playing, Steph just won the championship, KD is still hooping, Embiid is killing, Jokic is back-to-back MVP, Luka magic… There are a lot of people there.” -via BasketNews / November 14, 2022
