So it starts. Being a Philly fan has been so frustrating.

Paying players to sit....
They need to just shorten the regular season to about 50 games so these players can stop abusing load management.

Or not participate in the Olympics. If you struggle with health then get your rest

He'll never win awards without playing 65 games. The reason he didn't play for France or Cameroon was because he would have to play his ass off!
So he sat on the bench for USA and put a Gold Medal in his pocket...just wanted to win something

If the place we're going to is Embiid finally trying to be healthy when it matters and not trying to prove himself when it doesn't, totally agree.
