  1. Good news everyone! 

    For real, after all the doom and gloom about this being a lost season, Embiid is on track to return in 4-6 weeks after surgery. This confirms he got the removal surgery not the repair. 

    If we can just get Melton back, get some Ws to stay afloat, we should be ready to go come playoff time. 

  2. If it was the removal surgery idk how I feel about that. I would have rather him done the thing that provides long term health for both himself and the team.

  3. Glad I’m not Morey. If you stay the course and don’t make any moves this team is going to free fall down into the play in, and in that case you might be better served letting Embiid fully recover. If you go try to add in hopes that he comes back and he doesn’t, was it worth using any draft capital. Another lost year, always something.

  4. See ya just before the playoffs Joel! We will be the 6th seed at best and in the play in at worst.

  5. Real question, is there any reason for Joel not to wear a brace?

    Yes it will slow him down a bit but speed isn’t his game.

  6. As much as I would love to see him come back this season and help us when a chip I want him to take care of his knee for the long term. All those knee injuries for a guy his size is going to add up. We need to learn how to win some without him.

  7. If we RG3 the best athlete this city has ever seen just for a 2nd round exit it’ll be the last straw for me with this franchise. If he can’t play in 4 weeks then punt on the season. His health should come first.

  8. The team is basically unwatchable. Hard to believe fans will show up in droves to home games to barely beat the Nets
