    i dont trust the injury reports...seems like its manufactured to save moreys job, hardens max and phillys/embiids season...
    they were always gonna lose to heat anyway...now they just have a too perfect of excuse....really fishy....
    they tanked 5 years for nothing....embiid gonna lead them to no championships ever...hes great but not a dominant player...and his health/availability is terrible....simmons they already lost...and harden is well harden...so fitting that the experiment in losing achieved just more losing and disgrace...

    From what I've read online, it appears that Embiid could be back as soon as game 3 IF Surgery is not required and there is no other complication to his fracture.



    this youtube doctor however had a more cautious take and would be surprise if Embiid played in the 2nd round.

    Philly fans praying and hoping for Houston Harden(LOL) now that Joel is out, must be the most pathetic thing ever....lolololol

    what i can’t believe is watching joel hit the shot of life, we go up 3-0, great joy in mudville. next day, “busted up thumb”. sixers finally bury junk team with one of their best games of year, next day, “out indefinitely”. it’s just getting exhausting and almost beyond comprehension. stomach aches, last year he hurts himself dunking for goodness sake. and of course their is the freaky fultz collision. i’m not going into karma or anything but the timing of these injuries that are just bad enough to compromise him or lay him up for a couple weeks is maddening and hard to take as a fan. can’t even really call him injury prone. all i know is isn’t another star in the league i can think of that this stuff happens to so regularly.

    Lol u r opmistic. These folks would say anything to hate on Harden.

    The moment he loses to the heats without embiid gonna b the same folks calling him a choker and other nonsense.

    Ignoring the context as always.

    Losing to a higher seed is not choking especially if u missing your co star

    We have salvy here pushing the bs narrative he choke 7 out of the 8 years with us. :rolleyes:

    LOL you mad. Your boy toy about to get bounced from the playoffs again. Actually, my highlight is seeing you Harden nut huggers already making excuses and the series hasn't even started.

    I'm not a Harden hater... I have him in my top 10 all time regular season players. I have always had higher expectations than most because I always believed he could be a champion. I still think somewhere deep deep inside he is that guy. In an alternate universe playoff Harden exists...

    Perfect situation for Harden. If he loses he won't be blamed and if he wins it'll be a legacy series. Wonder if he's still capable of carrying the team like before. Would love to see a vintage 50/10/12 game from him.

    This sixers team doesn't even compare to the teams Harden had here. They have zero spacing, zero defense and zero rebounding without Embid. Even if Beard somehow tapped into Houston Harden the team around him isn't good enough. This is over in 5.
