[QUOTE="HotNewHipHop, post: 23316, member: 83"] Joel Embiid and the Philadelphia 76ers stunned the Toronto Raptors by jumping out to a 3-0 series lead. Heading into Game 4, the Sixers looked poised to finish the sweep and show the Raptors that they were simply the better squad. Instead, however, the Raptors fought back in Game 4 and sent the series back to Philadelphia.

While Embiid has been putting in work for the Sixers, James Harden has been MIA, and last night, Embiid spoke out about the team's issues. As you can see, Embiid just wants Harden to be more aggressive, but he really needs Dov Rivers to step in and say something.
