[Toporek] This is why it was smart for the Sixers to wait until closer to the trade deadline to make a move, btw. If Embiid’s knee is this compromised for the rest of the season, they’re cooked regardless of what they do. It’d make no sense to make an all-in move in that scenario.

Unfortunately true, but there’s also the possibility another player could have eaten more minutes and allowed Joel to play less. Either way it’s fucking miserable. Fuck the NBA for their MVP rules and investigation, fuck the whiny bitch Nuggets fans and fuck the medical staff for potentially costing us the season or closing the window.
Conversely, if we had made some trades and added pieces maybe Embiid doesn’t feel the need to rush back because we could stay afloat without him. There’s really arguments for both sides.
sit him for a month or w/e it takes, but the team does need to make moves. seeding doesn’t matter tbh as long as we are top 6 (remember Miami last year?!) I still think with a healthy Joel we have a shot this year
I mean let’s get some news first before we jump off the ship one way or another
