    If Embiid comeback tonight and win game 3. By Sunday Sixers could tie 2-2. Gong to Heat for game 5. Heat will take that 3-2. Comeback for game 6. Sixers could tie 3-3. If Embiid comeback and play healthy, Sixers could force this series to game7. People dont realize what Embiid does to defense players. Physical pounding. Over and over. As a result, small players tend to get tired, injured or exhausted. This is the reason why is so crucial for Embiid to play tonight. For Heat fans, this could be bad news even if they win in game 6 or game 7. Why is bad news for the Heat? Those physical pounding could carry to the next round ECF. If I’m Celtics or Bucks, I want Embiid to play so he can put some damage on Bam, PJ. By the time Heat reach ECF, those guys will be exhausted. If Embiid play, is bad news for the Heat even if they win the series.

      @zwen Joel Embid played the Heat 3x this season.
      The sixers went 1-2 in those games and he
      averaged 23 ppg, and didn’t score 35 in any of
      them. We don’t fear the man not one bit 😂 his presence won’t matter Miami is do deep and not to mention Kyle Lowry is questionable now so it’s really over

      @Rackster I know but I am just saying if they hit a fluke and win game 3 without Embiid then they should play him in game 4. Now is not the time to play him because they probably gonna lose anyways.

      @Rackster Philly also lost 1-3 to Toronto in the regular season when van Vliet didn’t even play.

    • Rackster

      May 6, 2022 at 12:09 pm

      @joceja23 you do know vanvleet could’ve been the problem right ? Raps won 2-1 without him in the post season

      @Rackster That one loss came in game 6 though right? A blowout in toronto. Is that the biggest reason toronto lost the series, because fvv played too many games? You dont think raps would have gone with a formula that was working?

    Draymond is right…all these idiot talking heads that havent been in the league needs to go. I only want to hear from perkins in this clip because he has NBA experience. The new era of media is listening to actual athletes because they have been there. This debate show doesnt even follow proper debate format.

    Embiid has been carrying sixers’ deficiencies far too long imo:
    1. Jo isn’t responsible to make-up Doc being outcoached.
    (don’t get me wrong, Doc is great coach, but Spoelstra shows he’s better)
    2. Jo isn’t responsible to cover up Harden’s lack of performance, for w/e reasons.
    (don’t get me wrong, Harden has been trying hard, but realty is, he just do much to help)
    3. Jo isn’t responsible to fill in what sixers place hope / expectation on Thybulle.
    (don’t get me wrong, I respect Thybulle’s personal decision for his best interest,
    if he’s capable of living up to it, like Kyrie)

      That’s what a superstar is supposed to do, give his team the confidence that they can win. It’s what every great player has done to win rings. Regardless of whether or not they get recognized for it.

    perk is right…if embiid is healthy even down 0-2 you comeback…what if the doctors says 1 hit on your face then career ends how bout that sas

      Even with embiid I doubt they can win… 1-2 games yeah but no need for that…

    If James Harden shoots at least 20 shots they can win.

      Harden don’t wanna win..he wants doc out and Dantoni to take over…

    Why protect Embiid when this is not the first time he’s been injured?

      What impresses me most about Lewis Bryson is how well he explains basic concept of winning before actually letting you use his trade signals. This goes a long way to ensure winning trades.

      I stopped worrying about bitcoin price ever since i started using Lewis strategy, it gives me gain daily even with the downtrend…

      Lewis always have a way of milking this market and I am happy to be his follower. My portfolio has grown from $220k to $579k. This wouldn’t have been possible without Lewis’s accurate signals.

    • Joane Dyer

      May 6, 2022 at 11:56 am

      Wow! I’m surprise to see people talking about him here. I’ll highly recommend Lewis too because if the goal is little to no risk then he is the man.

    • papitosabe

      May 6, 2022 at 8:54 pm

      Lewis is a scam artist. Don’t believe these bots’ lies.
