Taste the fury, Justin Bieber:

TASTE IT:

And now, embrace it

On one hand, this wasn’t exactly a fair fight for the Biebs, what with the Philadelphia 76ers center going a full 7 feet tall and somewhere around 260 pounds. On the other, if you’re going to take a basketball-related L, at least this is better than the last one Justin took.

Now that I’ve sufficiently whetted your appetite for Embiid-centric goodness, drink deeply of this silk spin move and detonating dunk from a summer workout:

“He died for our sins.” Man alive, am I ready for the Joel Embiid Era to finally, hopefully, officially start.
