    Not when you consider the 7 minutes less Embiid played for game while looking at his other numbers, and his game also passes the eye test. Also, usage rate basically only looks at points and turnovers, so it's not really fair to either of them to bring that up when they each do so many other things. I should have never even mentioned it, but you had brought up the point that Embiid gets so many more touches.

    KP would constantly be the third or second option on the floor at all times cuz either rose was hijacking offense or melo was in the pinch post doing melo things. Embiid was never even 2nd

    Okay so maybe, just maybe, Porzingis is a better/more efficient scorer. (he's not really, but in this instance lets assume his is)

    Embiid has him in every other category besides perimeter defense, which Embiid hardly plays because he's at the 5.

    We dont know this tho because we've never seen KP in the same position as Embiid. We'll see this season; everyone's just acting like Embiid is a better propscet but weve havent even seen KP as the main focus of an offense yet. Embiid's not the unknown here KP is tbh

    Really? I think it's more to Embiid's advantage when you're looking at what they could potentially do. I think Embiid has potential to be the next Olajuwon, but like we've been saying the big question is his f---ing health. I hope he can live up to the hype because he's incredible to watch.
