Joel Embiid Is Starting His First Of The Next 22 All-Star Games

via GIPHY

He hath cometh. JoJo campaigned hard for the #NBAVote and squeaking past Al Hortford and Kevin Love in The Process (pun fucking intended). And it’s a win for everyone as Embiid is clearly one of the most talented and beloved figures right out of the gate in recent, or maybe all of history. Also, he’s also got a lot of moxie/pizzaz/showmanship for the big moments. If he’s diving over the 2nd row for a loose ball in a November game vs. the Bucks then I don’t want to know what he’ll try to do to stand out during this overrated showcase. The last thing we need is our only hope in life to shatter his shit trying to impress Rihanna by climbing up then dancing on the backboard before falling over like Humpty Dumpty. No thank you, but the big man is gonna dance and have fun. As he should.

All in all, Embiid is well deserving of his starting spot. Look at these numbers, especially compared to last year. LOOK AT THEM.
