The post-game 76ers state media wrote: Embiid All-Star with MVP one can not be less. According to statistics, Embiid had 50 points and 12 rebounds in 27 minutes, the fastest player in NBA history to reach such a statistic. Professionally, Embiid has scored more than 50 points and more than 10 rebounds in several games, second only to Chamberlain in NBA history. With such a high score from 70 percent of the field, Embiid is also the first in history.
50 points in 27 minutes and 02 seconds, only two players in the NBA have done it in the past 39 years, in 2018, the Warriors' Klay Thompson scored 60 points in 29 minutes of playing time, and Embiid scored 50 points in 27 minutes, which is exactly comparable to Thompson's record. Embiid broke multiple records in one game, and after the game, his teammates sent congratulatory messages, and teammate Maxi talked about Embiid in a post-match interview, saying that Embiid's performance was surprising. Teammate Rivers even said: Embiid is an upgraded version of Olajuwon and Garnett, but he is very different from these two, and his performance makes me always remember.
In the face of praise from inside and outside the field, Embiid himself was very excited, when the reporter asked Embiid, how to evaluate his performance, Embiid said: I personally feel very good, this is the direction I have been working hard, I worked hard to play my own game, dominating the offensive and defensive ends, whether it is a long shot or a mid-range shot, teammates and the head coach have put me in a very good position, and I will continue to perform in the next game.
For off-court things, I rarely care because this is not part of the field, all my energy will be on the field, the offensive and defensive ends should be more competitive, my goal this season is very clear is to compete for the best defensive player, this season, you also see, our team and before a lot of differences, the current team has a lot of things to bear, and I as a member of the team, I am willing to do such a thing, whether it is the offensive end or the defensive end, to try to do well, I want to keep me healthy , to ensure that every game is in good shape today, playing every game for the team.
When it comes to MVP competition, Embiid is more interested, he said: "Last year's MVP should be mine, but unfortunately I played more than 10 games less, if I play more than 10 games, then MVP will definitely be in my pocket."
In fact, Embiid said that there is no problem at all, last year's MVP selection has a total of three people selected for the final roster, the Nuggets Jokic, the Warriors' Curry, and Embiid, but Embiid played 51 games last season, just met the selection criteria, although the record is better than Curry, but the playing time is not Jokic, resulting in his eventual loss of MVP. Embiid is making a comeback this season, and with such a performance, there is a good chance of getting the regular season MVP of his dreams.
