Lol the center matchup in Sixers-Nuggets tonight is... Dedmon vs. Jokic? HAHA
Also I don't think much is being made about Harden's injury. It's an Achilles injury, and he looked bad while trying to play through it a week ago and was laboring. They ruled him out the past few games, but I wonder if this is something that'll linger for him. He's dealt with hamstring issues before, including entering the postseason which affected his performances. Now this season, the Achilles will be something to monitor. PHI may have Embiid but there's no doubt they need a close to 100% Harden if they want to make a deep run. Idk if that'll be possible if his Achilles is a real issue
This doesn't seem to be like Brogdon either. Brogdon's Achilles issues seems more like just "soreness/management", which the C's have had him sit out games to manage it. But Brogdon has still continued playing and has looked fine. Harden's may actually be a real injury/issue.
