The Bill Simmons Podcast
Curry vs. Klay, the Embiid Situation, Atlanta’s New Look and Cleveland’s Ascent With Dave Jacoby and Kirk Goldsberry

He said, if you can't get yourself a 10, at least you can sleep with five twos. It feels like they've got, like, they're on the honor roll, but they've got, like, seven B minuses. You know what I mean? I just feel like it's going to shape itself out. Like, who their three stars are they're going to commit to long term and what they build around.

Because it seems like they've got seven guys that they could potentially, like, build around as the future of their team.

If you give me 40 seconds to tell a personal story, I play a lot of Golden Tee, as you guys know. And I'm very good at Golden Tee. I've got a profile. I routinely just put up high scores wherever I go. People sometimes crowd around. I've played Bill and beaten Bill every time we played. So natural. And one time, the great Connor Schell sent me to Vegas to go to the Golden Tee World Championship.

And it was there that I found that I'm not good at Golden Tee. I'm just better than the people that happen to be in my proximity. And I watched these men and women play Golden Tee to a level that I was just not ready to be around. And I felt like that's how Joel Embiid was this evening. Because I had much higher expectations for this. Because he played in the Olympics.

Curry vs. Klay, the Embiid Situation, Atlanta’s New Look and Cleveland’s Ascent With Dave Jacoby and Kirk Goldsberry

There was no reported surgery or injury or anything that serious. He had the suspension, which delayed his comeback even further. And I actually saw him in pregame and his arms were kind of skinny. And I was like, oh, look, he's in shape. But he was me playing professional golden tears tonight. He was not ready for the speed and just the physicality of NBA basketball. I remember one rebound.

bounce off the rim and you watch enough NBA basketball as we do, you're just kind of used to the rhythm of how things work. And it was his rebound. It was a rebound for Joel Embiid. And as a Knicks fan, I'm assuming that we're going the other way. And Kat just kind of circled around it, but grabbed it and put it back. And I was like, what was that? It was like he wasn't even trying.

So this was more of a me problem that I expected so much more from Joel Embiid because he looked like someone who hadn't played for two years and was just kind of like coming back and should have come off the bench.
