[Gil Scott-Heroin]

bro legitimately, I EVEN fukkING EMPHASIZED THIS DOESN'T MEAN HE'S BETTER

Y'all old heads can't fukking read or something once you find something you don't agree with. shyt's PUTRID to see.

Now you know what it's like to have your posts taken out of context at every turn.

Man, what a major letdown. I had high expectations for this guy.

76ers just need to make sure they don't draft the next hype train with Lonzo Ball, it won't be a good pairing with Ben Simmons. It'd be a major implode for this whole building process, and one of the biggest league history laughing stocks.

 

[Dwight Howard]

Sixers fukked this up so bad

trade Noel for pennies on the dollar
draft okafor when not necessary
now it seems like they mistreated Embiid's injury

He had no setbacks with his foot this year which is the biggest thing so this looks like just a freak injury

"He is who we thought he was!"

 

[General Mills]

simmons and Embiid out the whole year.


Being a Sixers stan hurts

It's not really a freak injury, his biggest problem and why he's getting hurt is because he doesn't know how to land. They need to work on his leg strength, his core and focus on how he comes down after he jumps. He often lands straight legged and on his heels which is basically the worst possible way to come down.

But, whoever let him play that game on the 27th should lose their job. They've known he's had a torn meniscus since the 20th, yet they let him play a game against Houston on the 27th, and he's practiced the entire month since then.

I hope this is the case.

Has anyone brought that up? And yes...the entire medical staff should be fired.

this is why bad organizations stay bad.

Hinkie would not have let him play.

Yeah how the hell can you let him even practice with a torn meniscus? Awful

That's why I never bought that it was a tank job. They had him practicing when he shouldn't have

The basketball gods are making these motherfukkers play Okafor

They really gave Noel away for nothing, Hinkie rolling over in his grave

I hope this is the case.

I'm not sure, but they need to do biomechanic work with him this summer. Myles Turner didn't even know how to run and his gait was fixed in a short time. For guys like Embiid and 7 footers who have late growth spurts it should be mandatory to do biomechanic breakdowns, the way he lands is all wrong.

Colangelo and their entire medical staff should be fired, there's no excuse to let him play that game. Like you said, Hinkie would have shut him down and not risked it. If it were a minor meniscus tear, it would have been healed by now if he didn't practice or play. Yet, they've tweeted out pics of him practicing, and videos of him dunking since the injury.
