Daily News | Charles Barkley take on the Sixers and Joel Embiid didn’t age well
Joel Embiid made TNT's Charles Barkley regret saying the Sixers lacked "mental toughness" at halftime of Thursday night's win against the Memphis Grizzlies.10 minutes ago
“I worry about my Sixers. I think they got a chance, I don’t think they got a good chance,” Barkley said during TNT’s halftime show. “I don’t like their mental toughness, to be honest with you.” “He gets the ball too far out on the floor, so he really has to score on five guys,” Barkley said. “If he caught the ball closer on the paint, they’d have to double him every time, then that would get the other guys wide open shots.”
“Joel is a two-way player, and if you take away what someone does best, what else can they do to help the team? Tonight it was Joel,” Sixers head coach Doc Rivers told reporters following the game. “If you took away his offense, what else did he do? Well, he had fix blocks, he had 19 rebounds, he had six assists. And that tells you just how great the guy is.”
