Joel Embiid -- The Process is now Live

Doubtful tomorrow against the Clippers and wasn't scheduled to travel to Milwaukee and still won't. Assuming the next time we see him play will be on national TV against the Rockets.

Yep, confirmed out tomorrow by BB.

Brown is an honest guy, isn't he?

Fine with me, and makes sense.

What it probably means is that there is some pain. No reason for him to play with pain at the moment, so it is safer to just rest him for a few days.

Yeah I'm with it, as long as he plays against the Rockets.

Yeah, ESPN is going to kill them if Embiid doesn't dress [up] on Friday.

He is alive

Longer version of him walking around before then, isn't a limp or anything. Trust it's just precautionary.

Awesome. I'm not the kind of guy to say "I told you so", but like I said, shut him down for a week as a precaution. Really glad the organization isn't as short-sighted as some of the selfish fans who just want him to play NOW and don't care about the long-term.

Well done by the Sixers to Trust The Process.

This also probably ends his All Star bid.

ROY still practically in the bag. Better to sit him out and make sure he's 100%.

Some burn to showcase Jah and the expirings (and maybe Noel) is a good thing.

And a couple more losses as the cherry on top. It's almost like the Hinkie shadow regime. 8-)

Aren't all of the votes complete for this? If not, he is only going to be out for a couple of games, and hopefully playing this Friday on national tv.

Wow, good for him. Consolation prize for likely not being named an All-Star.

Well this makes things more interesting. Perhaps the NBA's way of nudging the coaches, lol.

Yes He Is. Rumor has it this is his "Crush". She was apparently spotted at Sixers game Friday night socializing with Embiid.

Ughh

Id much rather see Embiid working on his Low Post Game or in the Weight Room. You are 7'2" 275 lbs. Why are you 27 feet from the basket? Brett Brown WTF is Embiid doing 27 feet from the basket?
