January 29, 20241 yr Don't mind Dinwiddie but not sure that's enough. Hope there would be at least another smaller move as well.

January 29, 20241 yr I think Embiid is going to wind up like Chase Utley - degenerative knee issues are going to kill the tail end of his career and he's going to have to miss a lot of time to manage it.
January 30, 20241 yr Sounds like the warriors might be open to trading Klay - thoughts on him for the Sixers?

January 30, 20241 yr 7 hours ago, HazletonEagle said: Ducking Jokic again I guess. Apparently the NBA didn't like it either.... The NBA is expected to investigate 76ers center Joel Embiid’s late scratch shortly before tip-off of Saturday’s 111-105 loss to the Denver Nuggets. A source believes the team is likely to be fined for failing to follow protocol. Or Mike Malone I don’t know how you go from being active, available to out,” Malone said. "I’m sure the league will do their due diligence because that’s frowned upon. We’ve had situations this year where we talked to the league. They told us if a player goes from active to out, there’s going to be an investigation.”
January 30, 20241 yr Because people don't pay attention. He got hurt in the Pacers game. Someone in this thread, a fan, didn't even know he was hurt. I said he's hurt they said no he's not. His knee is swollen and this is something he is said to have to deal with through the remainder of the season. Probably if anything the 6ers have abused the injury report rules because embiid told them he was playing and not to even put him on it. But he did miss the game for an injury. Not just a rest day. He didn't care about ducking Jokic who he always dominates against, and then DeAndre Ayton...

People do pay attention, if his knee is swollen and playing with it then he should be on the injury report. It's not a hard concept. Injury reports are pretty much updated every hour. Dude couldn't even sit on the bench for the game but could after the game was a joke, 2nd round exit mentality.

Embiid was on the sideline with the team. I saw him and wondered why people kept saying that. You are correct in that what was wrong was the team skirted injury report rules. But it is wrong to criticize Embiid for missing that game with an injury and not know he was injured.

It's a 4 to 6 week injury and I was surprised he returned so early yet again. But they aren't going to risk him in regular season games on the road when the objective is to win a championship.

Looks like you need glasses. He came out half way through the 4th quarter to "join” the team and then he pretended like the crowd booing him didn’t bother him. But we all know he cares about that. Maxey on the other hand was front and center since tip off and was jumping up and down and encouraging his team the entire game.

I wonder if its the same knee that he got knee to knee and missed games in December with. He got knee to knee again in the pacers game. I figure he has a bone bruise. Supposedly he could not jump before the Nuggets game. I suppose he is chasing MVP again, but I have said before I dont care about seeding at all as long as they get in. He should rest until he is 100%. This is the best team theyve had since Jimmy Butler and they have a real chance this year. Priority #1 should be having him healthy for playoffs for once in his career. Not chasing 30 point games, 30/10 games, and MVP. Certainly not a meaningless regular season matchup against Joker like so many fans were concerned about.

The left knee swelling isn't new either unfortunately. She's pretty tight with Embiid's camp so I'd say the info is correct
January 30, 20241 yr There is also a minute restriction in games as well for them to count as a game played. You need to play a minimum of 20 for it to count Halliburton is also in danger of missing the All-Pro teams
January 31, 20241 yr Doc has wasted zero time to play any of the young guys and Bucks need Andre Jackson for the defense.
January 31, 20241 yr They're shooting really poorly this first quarter. That 3 point shot was the first FG Embiid has hit
