I'm not the slightest bit concerned. Celtics by 30 tonight.

Mike

Today I’m going to be like Mike - Celtics by 30, even up the series, Doc rushed Embiid back too early again.

Sixers going for the kill shot tonight. Thought for sure they would sit Embiid until Friday for more rest.

Watch Celtics will win by 20 because Embiid is playing.

If his LCL sprain is worse than a grade 1. No amount of rest will help. I had an MCL sprain and it took 6 weeks to just walk without pain and about 3 months to get strength back.

I tend to agree. I also have a theory that Embiid majes their offense worse. As hard as he is to stop, they bog their offense down by forcing the ball to him.

Yes, it nets them lots of free throws. But it disrupts the flow of their perimeter offense.

Embiid back tonight. Just a huge missed opportunity in game one. Will be interesting because I think the Sixers give boston more trouble when they play like they did game one.

Now they will play the slow half court game and most likely feed embiid instead of shooting so many threes.

ok so do not bet the spread tonight?  ;)

Embiid will shoot nearly 20 FTs. Its going to be a slow plodding disjointed game with him parading to the FT line.

Good that Embiid will play. Feels like it'll be an easier game with him out there.
