Embiid out game 1; will play Game 2

[Phantom255x]

He has been ruled out, not sure how to change my subject line

Magic

I said before the game I rather him play at 80% than not at all. Celtics would have gotten up for the game if he was on the court. Their defense clearly didn’t take Philly seriously.

No need for them to rush him back

Since Embid got on the floor off the bench in the altercation, isn't that an automatic suspension for when he's healthy?

The Sixers should probably sit Embiid AND Harden. The Celtics won't even bother to take their warmup gear off and the Sixers will get the easy win to go up 2-0

They wouldn’t dare call that at this point. But you do have an argument there.

Looks like he's back tonight.

So, the league doesn't automatically suspend players when they get off the bench and to the floor during an altercation then. Or do street clothes give you an exemption.

I have not heard anything about a possible suspension but if they make him active and then sits out on a suspension, even if he couldn't have played in the first place?  That could be a no harm no foul arrangement?

I hope everyone likes watching Embiid shoot free throws because its going to be a lot of them.

line dropping like a rock

was +10

now down to +7.5

embiid must be playing

[ozgod]

I feel like we play better against them with Embiid. He changes their offense, they shoot less perimeter shots bexause he has so much gravity and commands the ball so much. Our best case scenario is an injured Embiid coming back early so let’s hope he’s still hobbled.

Harden scares me more than Embiid.

Harden gets others involved. Embiid doesn't.
