Joel Embiid Vs The World

Trust The Process

You rarely see a 7 footer walking around a sidewalk or anywhere. Well The Kansas Jayhawk 7 footer from Cameroon was one of those really tall people. Joel Embiid is 7 foot tall (probably taller) and 250 pounds. We weren't built to be 7 feet. Anyways, In 2014 Joel Embiid suffered a stress fracture to the naicular bone in his right foot. He re- injured the same foot in 2015. People thought that Joel Embiid was never going to be the same he did in Kansas. People thought he was the next Greg Oden. But that didn't stop him. He was working out gained some muscle. He worked out in the gym practicing his game for 6 hours a day. He also improved his 3 point shot to add to his deadly game. Joel Embiid came out in the preseason that no one expected. And when he played his first NBA game against the Thunder, we already knew he was winning Rookie of the Year. Embiid is averaging 20.2 points a game, 7.8 rebounds, and 2 in a half block a game with minute restrictions. This guy is a total beast if he putting these numbers up in 25 minutes. If he keeps getting healthier and starts playing 35 he could be a complete beast. Joel even started a campaign to make the All Star Game but just didn't make it through. He also has Philly fans shouting TRUST THE PROCESS when he shoots his free throw. Obviously he is still just a rookie and is still developing. Watch him be the next Hakeem Olajuwon. We are watching you Joel. We are watching you Joel.

On my last post we talked about mostly LeBron wanting a play-maker I talked about it a little bit on my last, but now I'm doing a whole post about it! It all started out with LeBron demanding a play-maker and Charles had something to say about that. He thought that it was inappropriate. LeBron came back with all facts and stated way more "inappropriate" stuff that Charles did earlier in his basketball carer. He spit on someone, threw someone out of a window and even partied in Las Vegas when supposed to be at an ALL STAR GAME! Let us explain Charles Barkley's NBA career. The Chuckster Barkley Foward from Auburn University was drafted 5th overall in the 1st round by the Philadelphia and played 8 season there. He then played for the Suns where people most know him for and played 4 seasons out in Arizona. He won his first and only MVP while playing for the Suns and even had a trip to the Finals but lost in 6 to the Chicago Bulls. Barkley ended his NBA career with Rockets and played 4 season there. His career averages where 22.1 Points 11.7 rebounds and 3.9 assists. He was inducted to the Hall of Fame in 2006. Charles Barkley works for TNT now. According to LeBron he said that he was disrespecting his legacy. LeBron is a 13 time all star and has been consistent in all his 14 years of playing basketball. And when LeBron listed all the bad things that Charles did in his career, this is what Charles said about it. Well, honestly I don't think he google that Charles. We all know your mistakes. Its about time LeBron stood up for himself. He has been ignoring critics for years but now, its good that he said something.
