He's played 238 games in his career 
You can't just make a blanket statement like that when this is pretty much his 5th year playing - it's a team game too
It's not just Embiid out there on the court - it's a 5 on 5 game
We have to see how his career unfolds to make that statement
Patrick Ewing never won a title. What does that say about him? Dan Marino, Allen Iverson, Charles Barkley - the list goes on and on - does this mean they were not Elite players? Because they got bounced in the playoffs?
It's a 5 on 5 game, but you keep insisting Embiid and Simmons are two of the all time greats. When are they going to even reach a conference final? Maybe this is the year they finally get a #1 seed?
We have to wait for his career to unfold to make what statement? We're talking about the current Embiid. He currently doesn't belong in the same discussion with Shaq or Olajuwon, as you've been insisting.
Every player you listed was the key cog on a team that went to the championship round. Embiid, well, see above.
My point all along was that he has a better Skill Set than both Dream and Shaq
Which is true - so he does belong in the same discussion - as that is the way his career is trending if he keeps playing like this.
