Nick Nurse Gives PROMISING Joel Embiid Update & Sixers Were Cheated CONFIRMED!

Nick Nurse Gives PROMISING Joel Embiid Update & Sixers Were Cheated CONFIRMED!

Well the Sixers go down in ugly fashion last night and what I mean by ugly is there were so many opportunities to win this game if it didn’t come down to maybe uh Maxi slipping on the floor or Kelly UB not fouling kawh Leonard twice on n1’s in the last couple minutes of

The game or maybe Kelly UB actually finally gets the shot off at the end instead of you know trying to draw the foul and maybe they actually call the foul and maybe this happens and that happens there were so many little things that added up to the outcome of that

Game and the reason I’m frustrated looking at it in totality is Indiana lost and Orlando lost and the Cavs lost last night was such a pristine opportunity to go out there and gain some ground in the standings and the Sixers blew it at the end of the game

And now with nine games to go if we look at the standings the Sixers are in a very tough situation we will get into that also we got some explanation after the game as to what the final call was or was not did the Sixers get cheated

We’ll talk about that first we have to jump into Joel andb because we have some major injury updates but welcome into Philly take with RB I’m RB thank you all for always supporting the show and we give you the news and updates every single day so drop a like And subscribe

To the channel if you want to stay updated with more Nick nurse talked last night before the game and this is what he had to say about Joel andb quote I think there is a very good likelihood that he will return before the playin playoffs so Nick nurse almost feels

Settled on the fact that Sixers are going into this playing tournament and I said it last night on the stream you know say they go in and they lose to Miami in the first playin game then you’re sitting there with a Do or Die March Madness style Tournament game up

Against the Chicago Bulls or Atlanta hwks nurse knows a lot about that himself and if you’re the Philadelphia 76 you do not want to go in there as the favorite against a nine or 10 seed and lose that would be pitiful that would be totally embarrassing and it’s just not

An optimal situation to be and here’s what nurse said overall about Joel embiid and where he’s at right now do I think that I I think there’s a a very good likelihood that he he will return before the playin playoff yeah Nick what are some of the things what is he able

To do right now on the court well he’s he’s out out there working right he’s out there working he’s uh doing doing uh lots of skill work and things like that and just trying to continue to advance all that stuff yeah so right now he’s doing skill work you know still going

Through certain drills Keith did go on and ask you know is he in scrimmages is he playing up against other competition yet the answer was no which does concern me a little bit are they you know trying to be a little bit sneaky here and he’s

Not going to come back are they just trying to sell six or fans hope in life and he might not come back well we saw Joel last night on the sideline and he looked pretty happy in good spirits so I I hope that he is able to muster up the

Energy and and the health to come back but I guess we just have to wait and see which has been the answer all along this has been an absolute roller coaster of a season here’s what wo said echoing this last night on NBA Countdown quote I’m

Told it’s not a question of if but when Joel embiid Returns the belief is with nine regular season games left after tonight against the Clippers Joel embiid can be back for a handful of those before the playoffs there’s a lot of optimism right now around Joel embiid

I’m told he is moving well and has looked good on the court we look at the Sixers uh standings position right now and again they’re right behind Miami but it seems like they’re probably going to end up in this seven or eight seed unless they can go on a run here in the

Final games and surpass Indiana also Miami but where do you think they’re going to end up here are their nine final games Cleveland Toronto OKC Miami Memphis San Antonio Detroit Orlando which by the way could probably be a huge game at the end there and Brooklyn

How many games of the final nine will they win they need Jo and be back we’ve known this it’s at the core that’s who this team is Joel embiid and they need him to be healthy so we’ll see how it plays out drop your prediction down

Below how many games do you think they will win out of the remaining nine now before we get into the the literal cheat last night the Sixers got cheated of course no repercussions right no repercussions let me rant for a minute but before we jump into that a quick

Personally once again check it out click the link down below snhu.edu Filly take all right man let’s jump into it so you know I’m not one that much anymore to blame the refs and this and that and quite frankly yes the refs were disastrous last night but the Sixers

Still shot themselves in the foot like I said not getting the final shot off or you know making a couple bad defensive rotations or or decisions and Tyrie slipping on the floor you put your destiny in the ref’s hands and that is always a negative situation to be in but

The refs were awful and here’s what came out after after the game per Keith Pompei says NBA referee Kevin Scott on the final play of Sixers vers Clippers which is the play where Kelly UB after losing the tip but the Sixers still got the ball somehow ended up with it and he

Goes downhill puts his body right into the pole George the clock was just expiring it was very close and Nick nurse literally ran on the floor and was you know a radic he thought that Kelly UB was fou he thought it was probably the second or third time he was fou in

The last couple minutes but here’s what the referee had to say quote on the last play on on the floor in real time the crew interpreted the play as the defender jumping vertically however in postgame video review we did observe some slight drift to his left by

The defender George and a foul should have been ruled and here’s the very frustrating thing for me okay cool the ref’s got it wrong can we go back and play this game are we going to go through this whole protest process like that never works so the referees literally just admitted blatantly we

Were wrong after a game will there be any repercussions from this no no in fact Kelly UB is the one that’s going to get fined for his actions after the game but you significantly could have just impacted playoff positioning you could have impacted the Sixers opportunity say

To get the number six seed whether you did or did not there’s still an opportunity a chance there and you just went out there and put potentially messed that up and nothing will happen nothing will happen you just screwed the Sixers matter of fact here’s Nick nurse

After the game and um this was awesome look at Kelly UB I’m not going to State what he said you can probably read his lips easy he looks at every ref I freaking love Kelly UB man I love Kelly UB you know what he said after the game he said my coach was

Out there fighting for us and I wanted to fight for him that’s why even if ubite did what he did last night and you know made a couple bonehead mistakes in the last few minutes I can’t hold on to that anger I can’t be frustrated at Kelly UB because

Again he leaves it all on the damn floor he wants to win he has that dog mentality and you know what you you take the good with the bad right if all the players had this approach in this mindset this mentality we would not dislike anybody this is how it should be

You should should be sticking up for your guy Nick nurse I thought was going to pop a blood vessel he was almost charging at the refs I don’t know why they’re out here taking all this anyway they should have just left right the game was over they knew they were wrong

They knew they were wrong and Kelly UB sticking up for his coach it is incredible Here’s the final play you tell me was this a foul Kelly UB dribbles drives and right there you see him move to the left that’s what the referee was talking about and it was

Literally right before the buzzer went off but either way again the Sixers have fault because they put themselves in a bad situation but this should have been a foul and it could have gone to overtime and the Sixers could have won and ended up having a huge gain in the

Standings but instead here they are once again on the wrong side of the spectrum and now with nine games to go they’re in a very tough spot and I just it it’s just frustrating it really is and and that doesn’t even take into consideration the whole game and how

Badly this game was officiated it’s unbelievable but when kawi Leonard and PG play that bad up until say 6 seven minutes in the fourth quarter and James Harden disappears like he always does it’s a game you should have won and the Sixers are going to have to try to find

That identity once again that they had at the beginning of the season I know it’s tough without embid but they need to pull together and win some games here I mean that’s that’s the only hope that’s the only hope can they stay afloat in these final N9 we’ll see how

It plays out give me your thoughts Down Below in the com comment section who do you blame for last night’s game appreciate everybody for tapping in be sure to like comment and subscribe that being said I’ll catch you on the next one Peace
