Embid or KAT

Post by bleedspeed »

Embid has been getting a lot of love to start the season. He seems be the only threat to KAT to be the best future center in the NBA. If he stays healthy who will be better? Or is AD going to take back his crown?

If Embiid stays healthy it's close. They are both good at different things. Embiid is going to be a better rim protector and post payer while Towns is more versatile on both sides of the ball. I give the slight edge to Towns because of his versatility, but if he doesn't become the anchor of this defense like a Duncan or KG, I think Embiid could surpass him.

I believe Embiid has been plying basketball for only 5 years.

Holy shitballs!

If he can stay healthy, he could be a terror. Physically, there is almost no one that can match up with his combination of size and athleticism. Plus he's got some legit skills to boot. Glad he's in the East!

Embid has a career trajectory somewhere between Yao Ming and Greg Oden

Yep I said months ago Embiid if healthy was a hell of a talent. I hope the guy stays healthy although I get jealous of the idea now that we have Towns. I just didn't feel optimistic Embiid would stay healthy. I'd be glad to be wrong. Like you said physically...yikes that dude is a beast and very skilled. There could be an insane talent level of big men in this league very soon.
