wtf
*googles what Bell’s Palsey is*
It’s a sudden weakness in the muscles on one half of the face.
WIP listeners eatening this up to demand that Embiid is basically LJ Smith
Is that life threatening?
Man’s gonna be playing through Malaria at some point in his career lmao
HES A FUCKING WARRIOR
so who leaked it if hes been trying to keep it private?
Class act as always Woj
Joel is one tough motherfucker. Enough of this “soft” slander when we lose or things don’t go our way. You all know who you are (*cough Howard Eskin cough*).
Dude is a warrior.
– Blinking with one eye
– Awkwardly covering his face during interviews
– Sunglasses at practice
– Missing FT at an unusual rate
Didn’t take a genius to figure out something was up.

Was off on the timeline but called this shit lol
Fucking hell what a guy
Dude dropped 50 with all this shit
“Not gonna go on the BBells Palsey victory tour. So don’t start. We’re trying to win a world championship, man.” – Embiid this playoffs
WHAT?! It’s genuinely insane how much he’s had to go through.
Holy shit. Warrior
Justin Bieber had this
bro I KNEW IT
Convinced God is making up injuries just to test them out on Sixers players
Watch the NBA fine us for not putting it on the injury report
This dude is the toughest motherfucker I’ve ever seen
This is like 600000x more impressive than the flu game lol.
shit wonder how long that’ll stay, this dude been thru it all
Jo’s Bell’s palsy game lmao
i thought it was trippy that his forehead was only wrinkling on one side

WTF Joel. This guy is truly unreal. Half legged one eyed dropping a 50 burger on these clowns. Legendary stuff
![gif](giphy|fVixNHsZTlUwo89IZN|downsized)
He was seeing three rims and just shot at the one in the middle
How does he even get that lol. So cursed
R/nba are such pussies
Think about the amount of mental stress he has been going through the past few week or so worrying about both his knee and Bells Palsy? What he did tonight was absolutely remarkable.
His left eye is too locked in to be bothered with shit like blinking.
What an insane experience it is to be a Sixers fan…
poor Embiid has such cursed health. It was clear something was off with him with the way his face, especially his smile, looked way different than normal, but didn’t think it was something this serious. 50 point game is even more insane now
Called this in the game thread a day ago and got downvoted smh
I have and still have the effects of this that is how I knew
dude just dropped 50 with bells palsy wha
