There was never a doubt Joel Embiid was going to take more shots than Ben Simmons. This time, they’re parting.
said he is “happy” to be done answering questions about the missing-in-action Simmons and suggested his former co-star does not care enough about winning.
Embiid has carried Philadelphia all season without Simmons, who infamously passed up a dunk in last June’s Eastern Conference semifinals and then was publicly jabbed by Embiid. Simmons has signaled he was not mentally well enough to return to the team, though that might not be Embiid’s interpretation.
“It’s unfortunate that winning was not the biggest factor,” for Simmons, the big man told reporters after Philly beat the Thunder, 100-87, Friday night. “It’s unfortunate that for him having his own team and I guess being the star was more of his priorities.”without an apparent goodbye from Embiid, whom he had played with since 2017.Asked if he has talked with Simmons since the trade that brought James Harden to Philadelphia, Embiid said: “No. I honestly don’t care.
If there was no text, there was a tweet. In a viral Twitter message that is approaching a half-million “likes,” Embiid tweeted a photo that has become a popular joke stemming from a person saying he showed up at “one of my biggest hater’s funeral.”
