Joel Embiid Called Out By Kendrick Perkins & Nuggets Fans for Ducking Jokic Matchup in Denver

Welcome back to NBA Cinema so today we got to talk about Joel embiid and what’s going on with him not playing in Denver since 2018 2019 and it’s always the same excuse nordness but he can magically play in Philly you know in his home gym and really performs well against nicolea yic

But won’t come on his Turf and play and it’s becoming problematic at this point you’re not magically hurt the Denver game every year and the one match up that everybody wants to see um so I’m not a fan of this but more importantly you have to look at it right the NBA has

The new rule where you have to play 65 games to win MVP or to be eligible to win MVP well embiid has played 33 games I want to say this is the 44th game right now that like it’s currently on TV right now Philly versus Denver of the

Season so honestly um he’s only going to be what seven games away from being disqualified from winning an MVP despite having it that historic night on wmy and all that and if he’s missed 10 games before Allstar break do we believe Jolan beid is only going to miss seven games

For the rest of the season you know I don’t see it like that but um the Denver Nuggets fans they not feeling this because they feel like they’re robbed they’ve paid money to see this match up year in and year out and he’s never there so we’re going to take a listen to

What they said and we going to take a listen to what perk said just a few days ago about embiid ducking the smoke let’s peep [Applause] it [Applause] all right the next game on our packed ABC Saturday slate it’s a rematch of the past two MVPs we have embiid in the

Sixers versus joic in Denver so for more on that Big Man match up our resident big man Kendrick Perkins he’s over here and big perk I hear you having a little pep talk take it away hell yeah I do and look this is going to Joel MB look we

See this big sign is big size Center most Skill Center ever this man right here he shows up when he’s not in Denver he goes to Philly and match up with Joel and B Joel and B my brother business been standing on you lately for the last

What four or five years you haven’t played in Denver since 2019 you have to show up and give that man his lick back your big ass better suit up tomorrow you better suit up and you better stand on business and give yic his Le back damn it long so when I

Say this I will never ever question a player’s injury but you have to start to notice a pattern of behavior here this is a shame man because I’ve been a fan of the way jool embid has played the game this year man he’s been absolutely phenomenal one matchup you absolutely

Can’t miss right now is the yic matchup we would have much rather you sat that wimy game out that you went for 70 to dominate a young skinny wimy to show up for this yic matchup that’s the one you can’t miss and honestly he’s a level above you right now you’re better

Defender you dominant you’ve been very dominant on the interior all season long in the best shape of your career but joic has delivered his court Vision his extremely high field goal percentage that he’s had um it it’s almost like you look at the Nuggets you know they

Missing some pieces like Bruce Brown and those guys but they just ready for the playoffs because when you win a title is really hard for that Core Group to come back in the regular season and get excited for anything regular season but looking at joic out here running up and down with his

Guys um you know it tells me something he came ready to play you in Philly okay you got the better of him last couple years in Philly y’all played but you never play in Denver I I just have a problem with that I know some people gonna say I’m overreacting

To this and all that but that matchup should be one as a competitor that he absolutely if he can go he’s going to play he he he’s going to play cuz you look very fine against Wy the other night a rookie that doesn’t have the

Body to guard you um now you youve been dominating everybody that you play you gave it to joic you know a few weeks ago that’s why we want to see you on the court but I find it funny unless jool and B has like Sickle Cell Sickle Cell

Trade or something that I don’t know about which would be a reason not to play in Denver you go look at people like Ryan Clark and the NFL all that they didn’t play the Denver Broncos cuz that sicker cell you know you go the high elevation I have it myself so I

Know like yeah you go up higher elevation over exertion that will cause you you know to go into a crisis so unless Joel and be has something like that that I don’t know about that would be a reason not to play but other than that if it’s just like a little sorness

Or something like that you need to get out there on the court and play man let me know what you think about this in the comment section though guys don’t forget to like share and subscribe till next time peace
