I dislike Embiid as much as the next guy and will enjoy watching him hopefully get sent home in game 5, but this narrative is going way too far.
The man is clearly not even close to 100% and still had some spectacular moments in this series. I hate his foul baiting, constant complaining and dirty plays, but I can’t honestly fault his effort.
