Mondo Sports Updated on 2024-01-29

On December 14, Beijing time, the 76ers defeated the Pistons 129-111 away.

On one side is the top four in the East with a dog-like steady, and on the other hand, the league is at the bottom of the league that has lost 20 in a rowThere wasn't much suspense in the game, and the 76ers led by 13 points at 39-26 in the first quarterSince then, the score difference has remained in double digits, reaching a maximum of 30 points at one point.

Due to the large point difference, the main team of the 76ers clocked out after only three quarters in this game, and the same was true for Embiid, but his performance in the three quarters of the game was quite crazy:He played only 31 minutes, shooting 14-of-24 from the field and 12-of-12 from the free-throw line to finish with 41 points, 11 rebounds, five assists and two steals.

There are a few statistics worth noting: 1. Embiid scored 19 points and 8 rebounds in the first quarter, which is almost a top-level interior average per game, and the highlights of the first quarter also set the tone for the victory of the whole game;2. Embiid's on-court plus/minus is +27, the first on the team;3. This is Embiid's third time this season that he has played 40+10+5, the first in the league;4. This is Embiid's 7th three-quarter check-in this season, and he is also leading the league superstars5. This is Embiid's second time playing 40+10+5 in the third quarter, and since the 1996-97 season, Embiid is the only player to do this multiple times in a single season, and now the season has only passed 1 4;

After winning this victory, the 76ers won four in a row, and Embiid's performance in this four-game winning streak was insane: - against the Wizards, 50 points, 13 rebounds and 7 assists, shooting 19 of 29 - against the Hawks, 38 points, 14 rebounds and 3 assists, shooting 14 of 24 - against the Wizards, 34 points, 10 rebounds and 6 assists, shooting 14 of 20 - against the Pistons, 41 points, 11 rebounds and 5 assists, shooting 14 of 24In four games, he can hit an average of 40 per game8 points 123 rebounds and 52 assists, shooting a whopping 608%。In the first two games, Embiid also won the games against the Lakers and the Thunder30 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists, 35 points, 11 rebounds and 9 assists.

Zoom in to the season as a whole, Embiid's current stats: played in 20 games, averaging 34 per game4 minutes time,Got 338 points 115 rebounds and 64 assists 11 steal 18 caps, he is first in the league in scoring, fifth in the league in rebounds, and has more assists than Alexander (62 times) is more, second only to Jokic and Sabonis Jr. in the league, and more than Shin Jing. In terms of usage and efficiency, Embiid is also quite explosiveThe current ball possession rate is as high as 370%, first in the league, with a three-point shooting percentage of 523%/32.8%/88.4%, true hit rate 637%, only better than last season (655%), which is less than two percentage points.

Last season's Embiid should be rememberedNot only was he elected the scoring champion, but he also won the MVP for the first time in his careerThis season, Embiid's performance has only increased, and his average points per game is higher than last season's (33.).1 point) is also high, and the assist goes up a notch, from 42 times to 64 times. The reason why this situation occurs has something to do with Embiid's own passing vision, but it is more because of the arrival of Nas, when Rivers and Harden were there last season, Dengdi blocking and picking was one of the most commonly used offensive methodsThis season, Nas has put more emphasis on team offense, and the team has more hands-on players.

Most notably, Maxey has become a direct beneficiary, and he currently ranks first in the league in hand-to-hand average per game, and is currently averaging 267 points, compared to last season's average of 20The 3 points are at least two notches higher. Maxey's offense is a surprise, but if you want to talk about the cornerstone of the 76ers, it has to be Embiid, and his role for the 76ers is self-evident: when Embiid is on the floorThe 76ers have an offensive efficiency of 1237. Net efficiency +130;On the contrary, Embiid was not presentThe 76ers have an offensive efficiency of 1166. Net efficiency +45;Embiid currently has a cumulative plus/minus of +179, which ranks third in the league.

What's even crazier is probably the high-level dataConsidered one of the MVP weather vanes, Embiid currently has a PER rating of 337 points, a career high (314), not only surpassing Jokic (32. this season.)1), ranked first in the league, and also the first in history (the previous all-time first, Jokic in the 21-22 season, 3285)。

In the MVP rankings, because Jokic has had two low-light games before and was ejected twice in the first half, Jokic has fallen from first to second in the latest edition of the rankings, and it is Embiid who overtook him. After Embiid won the MVP last season, many people thought that he was invincible, and even deliberately missed the head-to-head game with JokicBut this season, judging by the current performance, it is not too much to say that Embiid is beating JokicIf it continues like this, the MVP may directly become no suspense from the "double-high showdown" in the past two years.

Of course, Embiid already has a regular season MVPWhat he needs more is to prove himself in the playoffsAfter all, his performance in the playoffs in the past few years can hardly be said to be excellent, especially last season, which is also a lot of criticism;It's just objectively speaking, before ushering in a new playoffs,If Embiid even pulled his hips in the regular season, then what should the outside world say about him?

Whether he is a regular season star or not, Embiid's performance in the past few games and so far this season has been phenomenal, and if he plays well, he must be sure that he may become another interior player who wins MVP after Brother Alphabet and Jokic. It needs to be said that both Antetokounmpo and Jokic won the championship the year after two consecutive MVPs, Embiid's championshipMaybe it's going to be soon.
