Maybe if Embiid could actually play more than 32 minutes without getting winded his complaints would hold more merit. He just looks exhausted at the end of games, especially tight ones that go into overtime.
I think we would all be losing our minds if irving was constantly criticizing brad's gameplan to the media.
Irving has made a number of comments in the similar ilk. Not quite so many or as directly at the coach, but he certainly has indirectly called out Brad this year.
That said, Embiid is far more vocal about everything then most players. He talks a lot about a lot of different things. Much more in the Lebron James ilk in that regard then most players.
When did Irving complaining about wanting the ball more or more shots?
Criticizing the gameplan is not the same thing as complaining about not getting enough shots. Irving has spoken quite positively about Stevens, but he has also criticized him (again more indirectly than flat out calling him out like Embiid did).
