If I had to choose between Jokic and Embiid providing both are healthy...I'm taking Embiid all day, every day.

Incredible game winner.

Nah. Jokic is still a much better player. Great shot by Embiid. But Precious really chumped that down the stretch. 2 missed ft, turnover and on the final play he lost Embiid on a screen by Tobias. He was just totally caught flat footed and so Embiid had a much better look than he should have.

Yeah there may be a time coming but for now I'd still say Jokic - Embiid is uber talented no doubt but gimme Jokic.

now one thing that stood out to me - Precious is a big dude but i have to say he looked small compared to Embiid... like tiny just about.

I respectfully disagree, Embiid can be a little bit of a ball stopper (although he is certainly the more dominant scorer). Jokic is a playmaker who lifts those around him.
