  1. everyone here knows how Nick Nurse feels about his players that have knees that haven’t turned into powder.

  2. Lost in the shuffle, I wonder if it makes Philly less likely to trade for a player like Bruce Brown?

  3. Dude came to secure the scoring title again just to dip. He should honestly just focus on being healthy for his team in the playoffs. Dude gets injured every season. I’m sure the 76ers can win enough games even if he misses significant time, they have TWO all stars and a COTY. He’ll probably be ineligible for MVP this season which is good hopefully we get a new face

  4. Damn, regardless of your feelings for 76ers, this just sucks to see happen to any player. The only positive is him likely coming back for playoffs, which might actually be a good thing for 76er fans.

  5. Getting flashbacks to 2019 when the GSW cleared Kevin Durant to play in the finals when he clearly wasn’t 100% and then he gets taken out. I obviously don’t want to see people hurt / I want people to be healthy/play

    But like come on, where is the adult in the room to put their foot down and tell players they need to sit?

    I have very little sympathy to give in this situation.

  6. Nah man I been through an acl tear and a meniscus tear. Not a great feeling and a super long rehab. I don’t care how you feel about the guy (I know I’m not a fan lol) but still hate to see this

  7. Ohhhh fuuuuuu… nope. Never wish for someone to get injured, and shit like this cuts your career short. That really sucks for him, sucks for PHI

  8. Sucks. As much as he annoys me, the guy was feasting this season and they had a legitimate shot to make a deep run with his MVP efforts and the blossoming of All Star Maxey. Nick was really helping them put it together too.

  9. I hope he’s able to heal up.

    He’s been an offensive terror this season, and regardless of the missing time it’s a shame to see anyone injured.

  10. All-Time offensive season ruined. Damn shame. I really like Philly sports and as much as I don’t love Embiid he was absolutely the MVP this year. To see him drop like this is a disservice to the NBA this season

  11. Shai and Jokic deserve the MVP so much more than Embiid anyways. Hope Embiid is at least good for the playoffs.

  12. I hate his character on the show, but hopefully, the actor heals up soon and I wish him well.

  13. Do you need a fully intact meniscus to shoot free throws? If not I think he can still average 30 ppg
