Joel Embiid Center of Philadelphia, in the conversation, explained the role of a leader he has in training.
His team is expecting a duel with the Toronto Raptors at the start of the NBA playoffs.
“I’ll challenge the boys. I will press them and push them, because that is the way I want to train. I think it’s the same way, these guys understand that. They understand that there is nothing personal in that,” Embiid said.
“We had a very good training today. We went to great lengths for each other. Tobias will tell you that if he talks to you. I locked him up, let him know. He was furious. But he also knows that there is nothing personal in that, it is only because I want him to be better, I want them all to be better. That’s the only way I know. As I’ve always said, I’m not here to worry about other people’s feelings. I want to win. And in order to win, I need all of them and I have to challenge them “, added Embiid.
The first match of the playoff series between Philadelphia and Toronto will be played on the night between April 16 and 17, at midnight.
