Joel Is out tomorrow, don’t give me hope.
ESPN Sources with @Ramonashelburne: An MRI revealed Sixers star Joel Embiid suffered a sprained right knee and will miss Game 4 vs. Brooklyn on Saturday. There’s optimism he could be ready to return as soon as early next week. pic.twitter.com/Btwm3ls8Vh

Maxey worries me more than Embiid tbh
i guess it’s what happens when you want to do your own cascades like Keanu Reaves in John Wick 4
he had a bum knee and had 5 fouls for like most of the 4th quarter and we still didn’t attack him smh
well there goes their chance at not getting swept.
home game without opponents best player. But knowing them they lose tomorrow anyways.
also, I think this is precaution cause they up 3-0 . Joel be back in game 5.
You have to win tomorrow. Drag them back to Philly and make them actually earn it. Maybe he misses game 5 and you can squeak out another win and make it a little interesting.
That bullshit clax ejection
We have a good chance of getting more playoff wins than last year wooooooo!
In all seriousness tho, hope he’s healthy for the rest of the playoffs. He does a great job at getting under the skin of non sixers fans, but the healthier the players the more enjoyable the rest of the playoffs will be.
Best case scenario we get our feel good win, the Sixers win eventually, and Embiid is healthy enough to play and be the reason the sixers win or lose to the Celtics or Hawks.
Hopefully guys are not checked out yet, and give us more games!
With our anemic offense nothing is given
We looked like shit when he was off the floor AND when harden was out. Gonna be tough
Embiid may seem like he wasn’t a factor for the first 3 games. But remember, we double teamed him every time he got the ball opening things up for Maxey, Harden, and everyone else to have an easier time getting open. Constantly rotating and having to guard Embiid takes it toll.
Now that we dont have to spend energy double teaming him. We can focus all of our attention on Maxey/Harden. This is how come backs start ….
I just want to win one lol
Doc has to blow that 3-0 lead eventually.
If we didn’t completely choke Game 3 and won this could’ve made things interesting. I’m fully expecting the team to lose to a Maxey/Harris/Harden masterclass smh
Saved the league from having to suspend his ass.
Trap game! Reminds me of the last 76ers playoff game I went too. Got to our seats, found out embiid was out, got hype n we still lost lol sad ride home w the boys. It was during the dlo days.
We got em right where we want em boys.
