He's a troll/clown/joker.

Reminds me of how young Shaq would talk in some ways. He's definitely annoying with the flopping to draw fouls and then trash talking about it afterwards.

The guy looks to me like he is maximizing his time in the sun before his body invariably breaks down for good.
Probably won't be in the league by the time he is 30.

I hope while we're winning late in the game, when Embiid is at the line, the TD Garden Crowd chants "OVERRATED" right at him  :laugh:

And he'll just wave back at them like its a wrestling show.

Hopefully the C's get a fair whistle tomorrow and can finish the series out.

First he picked on Baynes, then it was Rozier. It's funny how he avoided messing around with Horford.

He's a funny guy and I still like him, he just has to be careful otherwise ppl might end seeing him as something of a clown.
I agree. He is a talkative, intelligent guy that likes to compete.
He is on his 1st playoff team, trying stuff, being emotional, getting the sense of being the 1st fiddle on his team. Nothing unusual, clownish, dirty or weak there. Like some claim. Just a young gun trying stuff and trying to understand what works and what doesn't.

No, he is a clown...embrace it. He is not the first young stud on a playoff team. His bosses should tell him to knock off the clown act ...he is getting paid a load of money.

Guys that put fun before the work. Those are the clowns to me. Not an extrovert that is a top 3 center in the league.

Agreed.... Why are people hating on Embiid? I like his attitude and competitiveness. Sure it comes off as trolling or goofy, but we need players like that. Plus the 76ers/Celtics rivalry only makes it more juicer in the upcoming years :)

Dwight Howard fits that description perfectly. Was a top 3 big man in the league, yet is remembered as a tool

I'm not a big Embiid fan, but Terry was in the wrong last night.  Wouldn't give up the ball after the turnover.  I like how he didn't back down from Embiid, but he was in the wrong.
