Say what you will about NBA MVP Joel Embiid of the Philadelphia 76ers. He’s got his detractors. With that said, he’s certainly a showman.
Does he flop? Sure. Embiid can make a slight bump look like a physical assault. Like it or not, it’s all part of the show.
Will Embiid keep his show in Philadelphia? It’s hard to say. It’s heavily rumored that James Harden could leave the Sixers this summer. If he does, don’t be surprised if Embiid requests a trade.
In that event, he’s likely to have a list of teams he’d prefer to land with. Don’t be surprised if the New York Knicks are on that list.
Why wouldn’t a showman like Embiid want to take his show to the biggest stage in the league?
Here’s the best deal the Knicks could make to make that happen.
