Joel Embiid's Injury is WAY WORSE Than We Thought...

[@alvin081988]

I will assume Embiid will not play in Denver again

[@DemonKingBadger]

Wait it happened in Denver? Shocked he played there.

[@Blafard666]

You would be correct ...

[@draeblak]

He's consistently a liability when it comes to availability.

[@GoldenHorseRatio]

My Sixers are 6 years past needing to move on from Embiid

[@johnjefferson5933]

Facts

[@TaintedStaff]

The Process is over

[@tribalypredisposed]

And to recap The Process; they blew up a team losing in the second round of the playoffs to tank for high draft picks, had a whack of awful losing seasons, got the draft picks, built a team that at best lost in the second round of the playoffs… In the meantime the Warriors had a dynasty, the Raptors and Celtics and Lakers and Bucks and LeBron Cavs won rings, OKC and the Cavs and Memphis are legit contenders now, Miami went to the Finals twice…

@@tribalypredisposedyou missed very vital points. Many draft bust for over 10+ years and the most draft bust by a team in the nba. Horrible max contracts. Bad front office and coaching staff. This team never actually built a team to win with Embiid

[@tribalypredisposed]

@@sinsoreshippromotesconform8218 Sure, but the details don’t change the sad reality of ending up where they were. Also, let’s be honest here, star center teams have won the championship twice since The Process started, just Giannis and AD, and obviously AD also had LeBron. The NBA is now dominated by star guards and forwards, at least until Wemby determines otherwise. I can’t even remember who the center was for those Warriors titles, I am a Warriors fan.

[@donvolio4089]

Eliminate these guaranteed contracts. You'll see players "Breaking Down" less frequent...

he just didnt take care of himself

Yup, had he put himself in better shape and kept his weight in check from an early point in his career, this could have been prevented, or at least not nearly as bad. Onus is on him for being lazy 💀💀💀

Thats actually a good point ...

[@RobustMustache]

Technically its the results of multiple injuries. He has had his meniscus 'repaired' multiple times. Basically they just cut out pieces of his meniscus every time and now there isn't much left. Which is what causes the swelling.

[@Minibloxiafan845]

He's gotta go to the Doctor Lonzo went to....

Bro as a sixers fan I’m gonna let you in on a secret - we’ve all moved on from Embiid already, injured or not.

[@Blafard666]

For a guy who tries so actively to injure other players, this is delicious irony ...

[@jdollarthegreat]

He should get like metal knees or something. We don't have that technology yet?

[@Mr.Majestic77]

To 76ers Nation. Next season the Phoenix Suns Bol Bol will be a free agent. Let Joel Embiid rest for the remainder of the season, tank for a 1st round draft pick, sign Bol Bol next season and pair up Joel Embiid and Bol Bol.

[@goldenjoeblow]

Why? Hes played fewer games than Embiid this year.

[@shacove7337]

all things considered, I think he had a much better NBA career than people really expected considering the injury issues he had before he was even drafted

[@mrRambleGamble]

Ha! Can't stand him. Kicking the Knicks and stealing French citizenship. First to mock others, first to cry after Kawhi any him home. Ha!

[@jonathanmisskey582]

Dude he was never a winner - he’s stunk up the postseason when his knees were fine. He’s been dead to Philly for years

[@justinbeard2024]

It sounds like he is pretty much done for the season if not his career You can't even get up and down the court, it's over at that point Sad story

[@DemonKingBadger]

He won't be done till the end of that contract, he will just go through the motions of attempting to comeback probably

[@Ryhamz]

Eeek....I figure you saying he should shut it down "for his sake" is so he can have a better chance to walk somewhat normally when he is 10, 20, 30+ years older than now. I'm a 31 year old man this year, but remember "The Process" starting back when I was a freshman in college. Sixers had awful luck with this throughout. Fultz losing his shot and just not being that good, the Ben Simmons debacle, rookie of the year MCW just never panning out. And I totally forgot Nerlens Noel existed. Almost none of their players except Emid became keepers and he can't stay on the floor. Brutal!

[@DemonKingBadger]

I do kind of think if they gave Hinkie a couple more years they might have had a clearer direction. The successors strayed a bit from the path. But who knows.

lol bro Greg Oden Was never even close to being a Allstar, NO WAY you thought he was actually gonna contribute to Miami winning anything he was done before Miami 🤣

[@Dstyle269]

Lol.... I had a friend that emphatically guaranteed that Greg Oden would finish his career as a top 20 of all time player and was willing to bet his house on it... I wish the best for Oden but sometimes people are just delusional. Like the 76ers front office

[@DemonKingBadger]

​@@Dstyle269 even if Oden didn't get hurt, he seemed like he would be more of a rebounder, inside presence rather than a big time scorer. To me anyway.

[@406dn7]

I think he is done also. While I'm not a fan of his, it is a shame his body cannot sustain playing basketball. He will need knee replacement at a fairly early age.

[@carlkim2577]

His knees are done. I actually feel bad for him.

[@quantum_beeb]

Bro, he missed like the first four years of his career because of this lol they’re lucky he got what they did

no sympathy. every time he’s hurt i think about him eating a burger court side before the game

[@jdot8911]

Greg Oden Don’t Have A MVP Tho🤷🏾‍♂️

[@tribalypredisposed]

This is what usually happens with bigs, either their knees or their feet cannot take the running and jumping and cutting of the NBA for very long. Everyone was talking about Wemby might end up injury prone, but it is the super thin guys like Chet and the heavier guys like Embid who seem more likely, and bigs in general are more likely but guys in the 235-245 lb range seem most durable of the bigs.

[@DemonKingBadger]

Still bummed about Ralph Sampson

[@chrisbarnett5303]

Tim Duncan significantly lengthened his career by slimming up into a more svelte physique.

[@DemonKingBadger]

@@chrisbarnett5303 of course, Duncan had an actual work ethic unlike Embiid

[@chrisbarnett5303]

@ true but also his body was never as fragile as Embiid’s. He was playing upper 70s outside a couple years in the upper 60s and 61 his final season. Embiid just has Greg Oden syndrome, his body is older and more fragile than his numerical years.

[@tribalypredisposed]

@ Man, you have no idea what you are talking about. Embid came back from a pretty serious broken bone in his foot requiring surgery to play in the NBA at all, had his first meniscus tear in his left knee in 2017, had a meniscus tear in the right knee in 2021, another meniscus tear in the left knee late last season, and that is not mentioning the orbital fractures and so on. A big man like that is feeling pain every step with messed up knees from meniscus tears, but he stayed in shape and played well when he could, because the man has a work ethic that would leave you crying for your mommy if you tried to work as hard.
