Shannon Sharpe: Joel Embiid & Nikola Jokic the clear top-2 players in the NBA | Nightcap

Pat Bell says joeel andb is on Pace to have the greatest season all time if he finish the season the way he’s played now it would be the greatest season of a single player that’s ever played the game of basketball he’s leading the league in scoring with averaging about

35 points a game he returned to the lineup on Tuesday for the first time since December 22nd dropped 30 315- 10 on the Bulls is his 15th straight game with at least 30 points and 10 rebounds he averag he averaged 40 points for the month of December on 61 42 92

Splits uh the Sixers the Tuesday out scoring their opponents by about 10 points a game with a beon on the floor Pat Bev I like Pat Bev I really do got an opportunity to see him around from time to time being at the Lakers game last year got an opportunity he come

Over he holl at me so are we gonna say like Wilt Seasons didn’t exist Jordan season didn’t exist Kobe season didn’t exist so so I’m just trying to F and I get it people at like today like whatever you see today that’s the greatest that’s the best food that’s the

Best car that was the best clothes bro so when somebody when when he does 5025 when he does 4427 wil never average less than 18 rebounds a season he averaged 30 points and 23 rebounds for a season look at summer Jordan season look at Kobe’s season look

At Harden’s season Harden had like 30 games where he averaged 30 had at least 30 points MH and I’m not say Joel embiid is having a hell of a season but bro just because someone is having a a historic season that doesn’t mean we just gota we just discount

Everything that’s ever that’s ever happened up until this point oh no he getting drug tested tomorrow hey Pat come on up in this uh this room real quick on here take uh put your shirt up and go ahead penis cup we gonna have to test you on that statement

Come on like 88 like 88 is a season to be remembered all the accolades that was won by one man which probably would never happen again no no not win the scoring win the scoring title win MVP defensive player of the year allar nvp yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah like it

Was a Onan tangent that that’s never gonna happen again like for Pat this might be the best season that he’s ever seen been a part of been a part of or same like know we wasn’t you know we was little we wasn’t watching yeah you’re right you’re right mean we didn’t get to

Understand what that was so um we can read the stats so for the basketball Minds the 88 they’re 81 for me right watching you know T-Mac hit the 62 while I’m on the court right those are games like oh man right so him watching it in real time that statement is coming from

Real life experience right not not not history right this this ain’t a history this is what he’s seen while he’s been playing the game of basketball and and Steph winning un you the MVP unanimous he’s the only guy that’s ever won that and he’s a

Guard and he led the league in scoring I mean there have been some great Seasons we’d have to go back and look but we probably got five of them yeah but like you know in today’s game you you’re trying to you know with these players you know what they’re going to remember

Is they’ll remember Kobe’s 81 yes 63 on the maths um you remember uh Russell’s triple double that first year that triple double season yes um that Steph Curry when everybody was on like with that 73 and N that Year you going to remember that right you know so there’s there’s there’s these glimpses

In James Harden’s tangent yeah right and you know Joker at the beginning of the season last year but I think with 35 a game from the big man the way he’s doing it this could go down within the last 10 years for sure as probably one of the

Best yeah you know seasons and you know you’re right there that’s your guy that’s your teammate so yeah you’re gonna give him extra little love yeah yeah you you you add a little Le to it so it’ll grow a little more that extra contract go ahead big fell sign two more

Years yeah I I tell people all our basketball fans go back and look at that 6162 season and look at the numbers that those guys put up because we’ll average 5025 but that was also the year that Oscar averaged a triple double yeah that was also the year that Jerry West was I

Think 30 points five rebounds six assists Walt Bellamy average like 35 31 and 19 uh uh elen Baylor was like 30 and 17 go back and look at that that season 6162 they they believe many believe it’s the greatest statistical season for individuals in a in a basketball season

Um but best not to throw shade because Joel andb is playing unbelievable unbel and right now I think he and Joker have separated themselves from the pack I think those are clearly the two best players and there’s no knock on Yannis LeBron KD anybody but those two big guys

Right there there they’re they’re the best at it right now yeah they’re the best at what they’re doing I mean they’re they’re they’re really balling I mean you can throw L LCA in there yeah yeah yeah what Luca’s doing is impressive too um but you know the big

Guys right now are really dominating and you know U Jolan beid is dominating you know scoring mostly and Joker’s dominating just overall Basketball

Shannon Sharpe & Gilbert Arenas discuss Patrick Beverly’s comments saying about Joel Embiid, “If he finishes this season the way he’s playing now, it would be the greatest season of a single player that’s ever played basketball.” Why Unc and Gil say that is going a bit to far, they both agree Embiid is clearly one of the 2 best basketball players in the NBA alongside Nikola Jokic.
