Gonna be interesting to see how Giannis does when he returns. Because KD came back from calf injury, then blew his Achilles in 2019. Then Embiid came back from a meniscus surgery just recently, only to still look hobbled and now his knee might have given out again from a jump. Giannis left with a non-contact calf injury against Boston about two weeks ago. Is it worth the risk?

I hope these two teams battle it out in a physically expensive 7-game series.  Same with Cav-Magic and Bucks-Pacers. No injuries though. Looks like Embiid’s back - oops, air ball.

Embiid's back. So looks like it's nothing serious.

Someone should give Embiid an Oscar for that reaction after going down..
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Wolves-Suns. Mavs-Clips. Sixers-Knicks. These three series in particular feel they could go the distance with a lot of nice back-and-forth. Pacers-Bucks could as well.

Brunson does it a lot but Lowry's are so egregious/obvious lol.

ESPN's scheduling today has been awful. Both afternoon and early evening games were delayed by nearly 30 mins and now this game is projected to finish a little after 9 PM, probably meaning LAL-DEN is delayed until then too  ::)

Because hey! We need more ads, NBA countdown crew time, and "analysis"

Four players have 72 of Philly's 82 points.

Maxey = 24pts
Embiid = 23pts
Lowry = 15pts
Oubre = 10pts

I've never seen Josh Hart not complaining. What an obnoxious player.

So far two home teams have won. A road team has to win one today...
