Daily News | Joel Embiid’s “Trade me” tweet shows poor leadership and immaturity for the Sixers | Marcus Hayes
Joel Embiid diminished two years of consistent maturation Wednesday night when he intimated that he’d like to join former teammate Jimmy Butler in Miami. As the Heat were losing Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Final, he tweeted:Embiid later tweeted, “Y’all stupid“ in response to the inevitable, explosive reaction, but we’d have to be stupid to think he didn’t understand that his original tweet was not incendiary. Accept no other explanation for this tweet. Embiid knew exactly what he was doing.
This is the second time he has flirted online regarding joining Butler in Miami. In February 2020, in response to fans’ booing him and his shushing them, Embiid pouted on Insta that he was becoming a “villain” in Philadelphia, to which Butler replied, “I know a place where villains are welcome.” Further, he knows this sort of behavior sows seeds of discord. He’s being paid to score points, grab rebounds, block shots, and lead a franchise.This is petty. This is silly. This is disruptive and, most of all, it’s disrespectful.
