How Joel Embiid Became the Unluckiest Player in the NBA

Joel Embiid’s NBA career has been one of the most polarizing, impressive, but unlucky stories in NBA history. Will he break the curse of unluckiness, or will this pattern continue?

    I had completely forgot about the Colangelo burner account. Smh that was unnecessary and dumb. But I maintain that Philly won't win shit with Doc Rivers as their coach. The man is terrible at making adjustments and u know...being a coach. And please don't argue Boston with me because it took 4 Hall of Fame players, the best assistant coach in the league in Tom Thibodeau, as well as the best GM in the league in Danny Ainge just to outweigh his weak ass coaching. Look at any other stop he's been at (before and after Boston) and it always ends in disappointment and unfulfilled potential. I know Philly is passionate and love their sports but all signs point to Embiid leaving next chance he gets at free agency.

    i understood doc rivers was a bad coach from his tenure with the LA Clippers. When the 76ers traded for Harden people were hyping up how the 76ers were championship bound with the duo of Embiid and Harden, yet I knew with Doc Rivers at head coach, they weren't getting anywhere near a championship. The 76ers were eliminated in the second round (by Jimmy Butler, hilarious). P.S Is Danny Ainge really the best GM? Boston didn't get anywhere in the playoffs beside 2008 and Brad Stevens and Ime Udoka took them farther than he ever did, the 2008 championship was all credit to the Big Three. What about Utah and the fallout of Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert?

Then flipping KG, Paul Pierce, and Jason Terry to fleece Brooklyn for like 4 years worth of draft picks. Making the trades to get the picks that became Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown. I would say he was the number 1 GM for a minute. Look at how even in "rebuild mode" he kept them competitive. With I.T. and that overpreforming job they did. He flipped I.T. for Kyrie and got Gordon Hayward. He can't do anything about Gordon's injury and had Scary Terry not been such a bitch in the locker room then Kyrie probably stays because he was nice that year. I'm not even a Celtics fan but Danny did his thing. If u don't want to say number 1 then he was definitely top 3 during his tenure.

    In regards to the Bucks picking Jabari Parker over Joel Embiid, It's hard to tell what a player's career in the NBA would look like straight out of the draft. Like now everyone says the 76ers should have picked Tatum over Fultz, but back then they would have clowned on the 76ers if they did take Tatum because Fultz was regarded as one of the best prospects in the class. This is why I am not a fan of redrafts because everyone says people passed up on Curry, all these stars, when they may have called them busts when they struggled early on, but now that they are superstars people are making fun of the franchises that passed on them when before they were clowning on the franchises that did pick them. If the 76ers did let go of Embiid and he never got a chance to prove himself, everyone would say Parker was a bust but Embiid was a bigger bust

    Different point but a lot of what you highlighted came down to injuries. They suck and luck for sure is involved, however, just as any very large tall player, you will get a much higher frequency of injuries based on sizes. He was always going to be injury prone at that size, just a question of how much. Zion was even more likely to and will be more likely to longer term for another example. It is why long run you need two good bigs to share those minutes to sustainable keep those stars no matter how well they play in those season games so come playoffs they have better load management.

    @loxt I give cp3 the same amount of shit for not being in the playoffs as I do for Embiid. If you’re always injured during the playoffs then at that point, it’s on you. Last year wasn’t his only real shot of winning, he still had 2 chances with the rockets, he still had his final year with the clippers. Saying Booker never stepped up when CP3 was non existent aside from the first 2 games against the Mavericks is disingenuous, they both played like shit in game 7 but CP3 was shit from games 3 and onwards. If he even played remotely decent they would’ve been in the conference finals again. You can’t be impressed at how CP3 is playing well at his age but also give him a pass due to his age, it’s a cop out instead of actually admitting he was some shit.

    Bill Walton didn't waste his career. He was the best player in the NBA, MVP & Champion for Portland, then won multiple more Rings & 6th MOTY for the Celtics. He had a fantastic career, the injuries just knocked him down from "GOAT" to "HOF" because if he could have stayed healthy, he would probably be considered the best Center of All-Time. He was kind of like the original "Jokic style" Center that could do everything on Offense, but he was also Elite on defense.
