Winners make plays that will not show up in the box score. Watch Joel during this 5 point stretch. Screens for Curry to get him a WIDE open look from three. Then puts a BODY on Jokic boxing him out for Lebron to get the rebound

I like watching Joel Embiid play basketball.
winners make plays in the trenches
If Jo wants to box you out, you’re going to get boxed out
I knew curry was hitting the 3 immediately when Joel split left.
What I did not know was that he’d pancake a motherfucker with that savage screen!!
God I was so hyped when that happened.
D Wade going “ohh…” at the sight of Joel flattening that man is hilarious.
Winning plays from a winning player.i genuinely live seeing embiid take a “back seat” and just being a cog in the machine. Although you could say the same for the entire roster, it’s just so foreign watching jo
Love the pick, defense, and box but but also that was a sick finish by Lebron lol
That screen and Curry 3 at a huge point in a huge game is the kind of takeaway moment for Jo that really captures the value of this experience for him and what he can take into the season. Nurse must be salivating
Fuck ya. These wide open threes off of Embiid screens have been happening the entire Olympic run. He can be a little more physical with them with these rules. In previous games Curry had been struggling so he didnt hit his shots but Lebron nailed a few.
That’s what I always found funny about the “why is Embiid starting debate”. He helped create so many shots for Curry/Lebron in the starting line up. You think Lebron and Curry have no say to Kerr who they start with? AD and Bam have been amazing overall but it’s been so fun seeing Embiid be more physical off ball and use his size without the refs freaking the fuck out the second he bumps into someone.
