BIG Joel Embiid Injury Update + Sixers SIGNING This Philadelphia Legend? 76ers News & Rumors

Coming up on Sixers now we have a big update on Joel embiid as Philly sorely misses him and then we’re going to talk about a Sixers Legend in a way and you might not even realize it that’s Mike muscala and we’ll talk about whether or not Philadelphia is going to sign him

But welcome into Sixers now Matthew Peterson here filling in for the one and only Chase senior who is in Indianapolis for the NFL combine cover ing it with our chat sports crew but we have an update on Joel embiid and I know the entire City of Brotherly Love has been

Looking for the latest on 21 as W put out a new report on his knee and on the uh update as the Sixers are hopeful and beid can start practicing in late March and return by the playoffs here’s what w said they are still optimistic that they

Can get him back there’s some hope that he can get him back on the court by sometime in late March back starting to get into condition the goal isn’t necessarily to try and bring him back and see how many regular season games you might be able to win with him the

Goal is to get him as healthy as he can be for the postseason hope they can hang in where they are and then they have a spree and mobile and conditioned of a lot of a jeel and bead as they can for what they would be either a playin game

Maybe as a seven seed or at a five or six you know a nightmare first round matchup for a team that gets homec court advantage in the East and of all and all of a sudden here comes a healthy Joel embiid with a buddy healed with Kyle Lowry and with the additions we’re

Probably about a week away from him getting an update on a timeline with him but I think there’s still optimism in Philly that we will see Joel embiid again this season I don’t know if you guys had one big takeaway from that Spiel from W but my big takeaway was the

Word we keep hearing hopeful I’m just getting impatient I just rather hear a return date rather than getting turn rather than being told hopeful and hopeful and hopeful right this has sort of been the entire story of Joelle embiid of every time he’s been injured with Philly just hopeful that he comes

Back soon so if you want mbid to get back for the playoffs I can’t guarantee typing 21 will get it done but can’t not guarantee it so if we’re not going to get any good news from W in terms of a timeline update well how about we just

Start spamming 21 to get him back on the court as soon as possible now we also have an update from the man himself Joel embiid because well who doesn’t want to get more updates on him here’s what he said on if he’s coming back this year that’s the plan obviously everything has

To go right as far as getting healthy and being as close as I’m supposed to be but yeah that’s the plan there’s really no timeline it all depends on how the body reacts especially once you start ramping up I just love playing basketball I want to be on the floor as

Much as possible possible any chance that I get I want to be on the floor it doesn’t matter where we are I just want to play as much as I can and try to help us so now the question is can the Sixers tread water can they stay alive without

Joel embiid for the rest of the regular season potentially or until late March which is almost the end of the regular season when you look at the Eastern Conference standings Philly currently sits on February 29th at the number six spot where they 33 and 25 record in

Their last 10 games they are 3 and seven they have slid from at one point being a top three team in the Eastern Conference to now approaching into bubble territory without Joel embiid and since Joel’s been out here are some very sad stats points they are 23rd field goal percentage the same three-point

Percentage 24th offensive rating 23rd defensive rating 28th net rating 25th you may not know what the offense and defensive ratings really mean but you at least know you don’t want to be 23rd and 28th now you’re in the territory of the Detroit Pistons I’d be worried about the

Sixers falling to the play in game we’ve seen some other teams in the east St and pick up a lot of momentum right lately right the Bulls are starting to put together some wins here we got the best team in the Eastern Conference right now

At the philadel I mean I beg your pardon the Cleveland Cavaliers winning a lot of games since the NBA Allstar break they’re getting better and better I’d be worry about the Sixers starting to slide into that playin game and hey if they are in the playin game with Joel embiid

That’s a team no one wants to face but at the same time if they are in the playing game they are just one or two bad nights away from basically missing the postseason Al together so what seed will the Sixers finish with in the East can they stay above the playing game

Area can they stay at six can they get better or do you think this is a playoff team bound or play in team bound get in the comment section below and let me know now next up on the show we’re going to talk about whether or not Philadelphia

Will be signing Mike muscala the Philly legend that you don’t even know that is that big of a legend or maybe you do but before we do today’s show is sponsored by Factor Factor’s delicious ready to eat meals make eating better every day wherever tomorrow takes you be ready

Adding him as well I think all options should be on the table for a team that’s really starting to slip the last month or so w tweeted out this ESPN sources Detroit Piston Senator Mike muscala is finalizing a contract buyou clearing the way for him to be eligible for the

Playoffs with his next team was SC has interest of a few contenders take that from WJ and now let’s add on what Brett seagull had to tweet out keep an eye on the 76ers Thunder and Suns as three potential Landing spots for Mike muscala all three teams have an open roster spot

And would benefit from adding a big man who can space the floor a reunion in OKC would be poetic for muscala now for those that don’t know Mike muscala might just be a random big that hops around the league a little bit but he’s a Philly Legend and let me fill you

In go back in time in the bubble when the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Miami Heat were playing a meaningless game in terms of seeding so a lot of teams or a lot of the both these teams were resting a lot of their key players so that paved

The way for Mike muscala to get some extra minutes and boy did he take advantage of that he h two very key shots including a three very late in the game which gave Oklahoma City the win and because of that win a draft pick that was protected then went to the

Philadelphia 76ers do you want to know what they do with that 21st overall pick that’s Tyrese Maxi so thank Mike muscala for Tyrese Maxi being in the City of Brotherly Love because of a meaningless three in a bubble game against the Miami Heat so let’s show the guys some Legend

And type mm in the comment section below who knows these athletes are always named searching he may stumble across this video he may see some love from Philadelphia and decide that’s the team I want to go to next and you know what the numbers are down this year but Mike

Muscala would be a good fit right A Center that can space the floor a little bit you’re definitely missing the offensive input from Joel embiid who carried that number five role on this team and muscala yes not having a great season you can see the slide from 2020

All the way to 2023 but he is still a big that can shoot the three-point ball and right now Philadelphia is looking for an overall spark on offense and just an overall influx of talent because the Sixers need size they need shooting abilities and muscala is both of those

Things now is he the same guy that he was a few years ago when he was hitting big threes for the Philadelphia 76ers by way of the Oklahoma Oklahoma City Thunder no not really but the former Bucknell bison I still think he’s got some good basketball left in him and

Right now Philadelphia needs some sort of spark they need a catalyst they need someone to come in here with a jolt of energy to make a big three to make a big play for this team to keep their head above water until Joel and beid can return and you know who’s not making

That big play it’s our friend moama you’re not getting that out of him right now so I’m all for with an open roster spot anyway bringing on muscala swapping out some minutes with moamba and trying to get some sort of spark on this offense because Philly desperately needs

It you look at the current lineup right now without Joel embiid out there you got bball Paul buddy hee and Tyrese Maxi leading the way up front but Harris and Nicholas B uh bat Batum excuse me on the wings I think you could benefit from an extra shooter like uh muscala while also

Getting some nice height and some nice size down near the rim to be a rim protector so should the Sixers sign Mike muscala S for sign P for pass this is your opportunity to be Nick nurse to be the GM to be the man calling the shots for Philadelphia and give me your

Opinion down below that will do it for us on today’s show I appreciate everyone powering through a video without Chase Senor he should be back soon so you guys will be back in good hands but thank you for watching all the way to the end of

The video and make sure to like today’s video if you have not already
