Joel Embiid is a dirty player

Try argue otherwise.

23 flagrants in 483 games.

The much criticised and hated Draymond Green? 21 in 970 games.

In the playoffs it holds true compared to Draymond as well.

It’s about time Embiid got his due as one of the dirtiest players in the NBA.

I absolutely love his villain nature. Dude is a born heel. The Knicks-Sixers series is appointment viewing. We’ve needed the bad guy for a long time. Embiid is that. Keep it up, son.

It’s all entertainment at the end of the day.

Give him a break, poor guy is just protecting himself, he's never made a dirty play in his life.

Biggest crybully in the league.

Dude was my favourite player in the league until 2019 when he started changing his antics and has now become my most hated player in the league... after Draymond lol.

Draymond definitely deserves a lot more flagrants for all the uncalled nutshots.

Last night was embarrassing for him.

He's a brat that the NBA has been enabling his whole career. Apparently the tighter whistle doesn't apply to him either. When you enable this kind of behavior, you get this kind of hysterical entitlement.

When you start to injure guys, that's when it starts to cross the line. Trae Young was/is a great villain for the Knicks for instance because he trash talks and backed it up. This stuff by Joel is trash on the basis that he's hurting the opposition physically due to this.

I really don’t know how anyone could possibly enjoy watching him play.

I do he’s my favorite player in the NBA because he’s so skilled and haters love to hate on him for no reason.

People have been saying this since forever, Raptors fans specifically have been trying to convince everyone for years and a lot of people were in denial.

The NY fanbase is also big and loud, maybe people will start to get it now...he's a dirty flopping baby

Embiid took out 3 Raptors players in one playoff game without getting a foul. He stepped on Scottie Barnes' ankle. Scottie was out the rest of the playoffs with a sprained ankle. Embiid hit our only center Khem Birch in the face with his elbow and got him concussed. He was out for the game. Thad Young sprained his left thumb after guarding Embiid and had to sat out that game, and ineffective after. Embiid didn't get a single foul for those dirty actions. Nurse said after "there could have been more fouls called on Embiid". Nurse escaped fines from NBA for those post game remarks.

I'm happy that someone finds enjoyment in his game.

No reason? You don’t see the long list of reasons?
