: One thousand and forty-six: Trash talk potential stock Embiid (4/5)

   On the night of the 22nd, the Grizzlies all boarded the plane and headed towards Philadelphia.

   Gasol didn’t go to Philadelphia with the team this time, because he really didn’t understand how the Grizzlies, who had a 14-game victory over the 76ers who had 4 wins and 10 losses in the upper zone, were troublesome...

   If it was just because of Embiid, then Gasol would be more at ease.

   It must be admitted that Embiid is an excellent fifth player. His low post offensive skills are quite solid, and his three-pointers are also quite threatening.

   2 meters 13 height coupled with 2 meters 28 wingspan allows him to surpass many opponents based on physical conditions alone.

   But Gasol, who fights against Jokic every day in training, knows very well that that fat boy is really no worse than Embiid.

   So Gasol simply stayed in Memphis to rest. Anyway, upon waking up, the Grizzlies must be another big win.

   In this game, it is estimated that only those media who don't know the truth will think that the fight is fierce.

   At the same time on the plane, Jokic is watching Embiid's game video carefully.

   Link got close to Jokic with interest and watched with him.

   "This guy... is actually really amazing." Seeing Link sitting next to him, Jokic started talking to him.

   "I have never denied Embiid's strength." Link spread his hands. "I just think you are as good as him."

   "If I mess up tomorrow...you won't let me drink Coke for the rest of my life?"

   "Puff!" Link covered his forehead. He thought Jokic was worried about anything.

"I can't control you for the rest of my life, Nicolas. I just feel that people lack respect for you. You broke the inside line of the Dream Team this summer, but people still didn't take you seriously. So the next game, Let them take a good look at your strength."

   Link patted Jokic on the shoulder. In fact, Jokic has grown very much now.

   The reason why he hasn't made any waves this season is because he can only play as a substitute.

"If I had made that lore goal... Maybe I would not have been ignored." Jokic sighed. In the Olympics, he missed the lore dream team and let him Unforgettable.

   "It’s boring to be immersed in past defeats, Nicolas. Play well tomorrow, I am optimistic about you. Tell them, whose inside line is going to be in trouble."

   Jokic looked at Link and nodded slightly.

  I can't meet the Warriors and Draymond Green for the time being, and there is no way to make up for the summer's regret.

   Then, let’s practice with Embiid.

   On the morning of the 23rd, major TV stations began to broadcast preview programs of the Grizzlies and 76ers game.

   The team with the best record of this season and the most beloved star of the season met. Such a collision naturally dampened the appetite of the fans.

   Almost everyone agrees that Embiid will perform well enough in this game.

   Facing a strong enemy like the Grizzlies, Embiid might be able to burst out his strongest strength!

   As for what Link said in an interview yesterday, everyone didn't take it to heart.

   "If I were Link, I would say that too. He can't admit that his teammates are worse than others, right? But like that, everyone just listen."

   "Nikola Jokic has more potential than Embiid? Link serious?"

   "Jokic did play a few good games in the Olympics this summer, but the Olympics and the NBA are different. At least so far, I haven't found any outstanding performance of Jokic."

   Now that Embiid is so famous, no one thinks that a little-known second-round show can pose a threat to that genius.

  Even Embiid himself thinks so.

   In an interview on the sidelines before the game in the afternoon, Embiid fully demonstrated his confidence.

"No matter who it is, I will do my best to beat him. No, if it is just against Jokic, I don't have to do my best. But in order to win the game, I have to do that, sorry man. If you really do I believe you are better than me, then you are too naive."

   Embiid is not a good boy, on the contrary, Embiid is a player who loves to talk trash. Not only on the court, but also on social media.

   In addition to playing on the field, Embiid has undoubtedly also demonstrated his potential to become the king of trash on social media this year.

   A few days ago, Embiid had just sprayed with an adult Ivy actress.

   After fighting Whiteside before, the two also scolded each other on social media.

   And Embiid never engages in sarcasm or insults, he just goes to war with others on social media!

   This is Embiid, and if you think he is an honest first-year rookie, you are quite wrong.

   Today, facing the seemingly unthreatening Jokic, Embiid will naturally not soften his mouth.

   He didn't dare to provoke Link, but Batum, who was annoyed at Link's end, had already tried the trick for everyone.

   But to provoke Jokic, Embiid thinks it's okay.

   Although Embiid's tone is more arrogant, most of the media are not disgusted.

   After all, Embiid's recent performance is indeed very good, they also like this controversial player.

   Secondly, everyone really didn't take Jokic seriously. If Embiid provokes Gasol, there may be people who complain about Embiid's arrogance.

   But in front of Jokic, Embiid really has the capital to speak out.

   Embiid's words quickly reached the Grizzlies players. Link was very angry when he heard it. Embiid has only played a few games, so it's so swollen.

   But Jokic didn't react at all. When he came out to warm up, he didn't respond to the reporter's camera. "I just want to play well, and I don't care about the others."

   This painless sentence is Jokic's entire response.

   Many of the Philadelphia media almost didn't get laughed at. Link's courage to say that this guy who doesn't even dare to speak out is the league's most potential center.

   "It seems that Nikolai Jokic doesn't seem to be very confident."

   "Of course, after all he has to face the hottest center this year. Embiid's shock is even better than when Whiteside was born."

   "Jokic is really unlucky. He finally got a chance to start, but he has to face a strong opponent like Embiid."

   The two Philadelphia commentators gloated, and they can’t wait to see how Embiid abused food!

   If Embiid pierced the Grizzlies' fifth position, the 76ers would not have no chance of winning!

   Finally, at 7:30 PM on the 23rd, at Wachovia Center ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ amidst the cheers of the Philadelphia fans, the 76ers and Grizzlies officially started!

   Before the game started, 76ers coach Brett Brown made it clear that today, Embiid's playing time will be appropriately increased.

   In the previous few games, in order to protect Embiid, who had been reimbursed for two consecutive seasons, Brown only allowed him to play about 25 minutes per game.

   But today, Embiid's playing time is likely to exceed 30 minutes.

   There is no doubt that Brett Brown also hopes Embiid can make a big splash in this battle of fame.

  The starting players of both sides have stepped into the designated positions. On the 76ers side, the Spanish stars Sergio Rodriguez, Gerard Henderson, Covington, Ilyasova and Embiid formed the starting five.

   On the bench, there are also powerful players such as Okafor, Saric, Jerry Bayless and Nick Stauskas.

   The configuration of the 76ers this year, to be honest, does have the conditions to win.

When    Jokic appeared on the scene, the scene camera even gave him a special detail.

  Everyone can't help but laugh, this shameless guy looks like a background board. His fat sound was unreliable.

   Look at Embiid's body again, it's much more reliable!

   Then, the referee blew a whistle, and Embiid easily grabbed the basketball from Jokic.

   Jokic's athleticism makes him look like a young player at all.

   The 76ers launched an offense. As soon as Embiid came up, he leaned against Jokic and prepared to get the ball.
