Joel Embiid was unstoppable for most of the game, but eventually wore down and the Warriors stopped him in crunch-time of the Golden State Warriors - Philadelphia 76ers game 2023.03.25.PHI-GSW game.

The Warriors threw all kinds of defenses at Embiid from ever-changing tight double-teams to goalies waiting in the paint. But in crunch-time, the Warriors went with their best defense with Kevon Looney at the point of attack and Draymond Green lying in wait as the goalie in the paint.

Co-starring Jonathan Kuminga, Steph Curry, Jordan Poole, and JaMychal Green. With Tyrese Maxey and Georges Niang.
