1. Should have traded him at least three years ago

2. Why are reporters in the locker room? The team can hold a presser after the game!

3. I’d press charges! They don’t want citizens pulling their hands on players!

4. You talk about my son, you talk about my brother that passed, I would at the very least do the same thing.

5. Exactly why reports shouldn't be allowed in the locker room. But what the reporter did is unacceptable. Embiid was in the right all the way

6. These nba players out of control

7. Joel is the one who disrespected his brother by playing the sympathy card when he couldnt win. Now that people remember that, he's mad. Joel always looking to appear better than he performs so people keep trusting the process grand disappointment.

8. Embiid played in the Olympics. He is not ready for the 76ers season. They are paying him enormous money and Joel is nowhere to be found. The fans in Philadelphia should be frustrated.

9. Mentally soft.

10. I can’t lie if there’s no video it didn’t happen nobody on the internet even cares

11. If you talking about a persons deceased relative as a reporter you should lose your job. Not a big Embid fan but I’m with him on this one e

12. Imagine making 51 million a year and being angry enough to shove anyone

13. This is smart, if the league is going to apply pressure load management why not try to get suspended instead 🤔

14. Good. Reporters/columnists literally do nothing but talk crazy

15. Dude is so soft physically and mentally.

16. Embiid is dirtiest dude in the league we all saw it against my Knicks BUT he got my “support” in this situation. Bringing his dead family up is insane & lucky he didnt do more.

17. Yes we need more fighting in sports From the courts to the locker rooms, Every crowd gets excited when there's a fight.Nobody's going eww and ahh, Sounds like this reporter went out of boundaries.And got handled

18. If you are 7’4 Rich basketball player & built like a 🧱 💩 🏠 don’t push regular sized old men. Lose-Lose situation for you!

19. Who is the columnist?

20. And you wonder why players don’t want to deal with the media

21. Nahh disrespected his son and late brother
    What do they have to do with his play on the court?
    I don’t blame Embiid
    The league better let this go
    These media people be getting to comfortable and don’t know boundaries

22. The fact that Joel Embiid decided to play during the off-season in the 2024 Olympics and is Now physically incapable of playing for the Philadelphia 76ers is Negligence on His part considering Team USA didn’t need Him to Succeed and Joel Embiid is from the Country of Cameroon.

23. Back up off the man I’d say! Everyone has personal space!

24. He didnt mock his kids. Read the article before you comment. Joel is just being sensitive because of the public narrative about him. He needs to keep in mind, the city owes him nothing. Its not like he's won a championship

25. IM ON EMBID THIS TIME. STUPID REPORTER JELLY OF HIS SALARY.
