This isn’t the first time that Embiid has had words of praise for the Celtics.
A couple of years ago, he admitted that they didn’t have a rivalry with them considering a rivalry would imply both teams winning games and the Celtics unchangingly write-up them.
The Sixers had an opportunity to reuse bragging rights from them in the playoffs, but Embiid and James Harden crumbled under pressure and blew back-to-back chances of latter them out.
It’s a long season, and the Sixers have moreover looked great, plane vibration Boston in their first matchup of the campaign, so it’s early to sound off the alarms.
But Nick Nurse will have to icon out how to counter everything the Celtics have washed-up to alimony his weightier player in trammels throughout the undertow of the years, as they’re likely to square off then in the playoffs this season.
