Something STRANGE is Going On…

1. So he was complaining about not getting the ball as much, but in the last two games, I feel like we found him a lot, for what I don’t know.😂

2. I'm hoping he will play his body into better shape. Even if his body moves different now with all the injuries and wear/tear, he can obviously still be effective. He he has to adapt to his early onset old man body.

3. Josh need to step in and tell our hero Joel that he is not allowed to take 3's. NOPE! NEVER AGAIN!

4. I don't think its mechanics or Joel getting into a rhythm. Between last year and so far this year I have seen enough to know that not only can Joel not play back to backs, but his body at this point in his career can't handle consistently going two games over three nights. As they are looking at options for another big, they need to be pinpointing a guy they feel comfortable not only playing 15 a night and once in a while in the regular season, they need to be looking at guys they can start in at least one or two games in each series of the postseason. When Joel is fatigued and his body isn't right, he is downright terrible — he can single handedly lose you a game just as when he is really on and feeling good he can single handedly win you a game. They need to do whatever they can to reduce the amount of games in which Joel will be a liability because he just cant handle the grind of the NBA schedule at this point in his career.

5. We don't need Joel to score. We have enough firepower elsewhere.Joel should focus on defense. On offense, he should only be used in the paint and alot of focus on passing. Don't even put him behind the arc unless there is a strategic play called to open the floor for Maxey, Lebron, and Brown.

6. After 10 games, the obvious hurdle is Joel fitting in…..he looks lost on offense sometimes. Hopefully more play together will fix it.

7. 6ers need a center who can rebound and block shots and its not embeid

8. Great time to trade Embiid all he wants to do is shoot jump shots.

9. Joel starts to ramp up every December and January

10. Embiid said a week ago that he aspires to make the all-defensive team. That seemed overly ambitious but did suggest that he was feeling nimble with his legs under him. But he's looking hobbled, struggling to defend in space – and he's clearly no longer a rim protector – no lift. He seems a shadow of his former self. But he's more likely to start knocking down his shots than he is becoming a defensive force.

11. Embid is a prime example of what happens to your game when you do not play or shoot around in the off season…yea he made be a little bit healthier and in better looking shape but that does nothing for your shot when you dont pick up a ball and practice…as a coach I can clearly see that his work was NOT put in…in the past he has used the season to get in to shape and all those previous shots that he was getting helped him with repetition…hopefully by the end of the season, he will be fine like always.

12. Let’s not blow this out of proportion we literally got nothing from LeBron and Embiid last night. We could’ve won that game with a quarter of effort from them. I don’t think they care about the NBA cup at all just being healthy for the playoffs

13. Somebody has to tell Embiid to play down low only. He makes me wanna break sh watching him play

14. If he’s not making shots then he needs to get in the paint as much as he can and get to the line. He’s doing the opposite

15. sixers need a legit backup at center. everyone knew embiid's knees are toast

16. Nurse gotta have the balls to get on Embiid when he plays like this.. Plus they gotta get another big so when he feels like he don't wanna be on the floor you can take him off.. He gave no effort yesterday from the beginning of the game… That can't be tolerate anymore

17. I know im not alone in cant wait till the time when we no longer have talk about Embidd on this team it is pass time ,chip or not we gotta move him that those knees and feet are gone , really go look at the games he has no fkin lift .

18. we need to just dump it to embiid, no more trying to set him up, james harden learned early just give it to joel n get out the way

19. You lost me when you asked do we need Embid 🤷🏾‍♂️✌🏿

20. Maybe your goat need to have more than 8 points or switch to your goat at center , but we know how that went. FOH

21. He's too slow out there

22. Joel always plays bad in the first 10 games every year
