We’re running out of superlatives to describe the Philadelphia 76ers’ mega-star Joel Embiid. Outstanding? Astonishing? Amazing? Incredible? Stupendous? Remarkable? Supercalifragilisticespealadocious? You get the point. There are only so many ways to compliment someone’s talents and efforts.
In the midst of an MVP-level campaign, we’re, at best, speechless over the rampage Embiid (+200 to win the award at Tipico) has unleashed on the rest of the NBA. Maybe there’s some residual anger and frustration left over from a former teammate. Perhaps he’s unleashed his complete skill-set, and this version — this version — is what that resembles. We’ll never know for sure.
