Embiid from KU can gyrate and talk all the trash he wants to as a freshman at Kansas.
Ejim cannot voice some emotion after a three in an opponent's face.
What's the problem here? The Big XII has to face it - stars get better treatment if they happen to be on the correct team in the conference - KU, U$T, etc
Beings Ejim is not on the perceived power team of the conference, then teams can manhandle him and be ultra-physical, because that is how to combat his style. However, if the officials do not protect one of the league's biggest stars of this season, then it becomes WWE action during too much of the game, and this has worn on Ejim & in particular in the past couple games. He has received some 'star' treatment in a couple games, but by & large, he has had this stellar season in the face of a challenging conference viewpoint on ISU, which has made it all the more impressive.
I hope Ej just uses this as additional fuel to end his senior campaign, controls it, & ends the season stronger then ever. Game before it affected his production. Vs KSU, it appeared to light a fire. That's what I hope continues is the latter for the remainder of this season (& wishing that remainder is as long as possible.)
