What’s the chance Embiid dodges his Daddy Horford for this game?

This is going to be a punishing victory with the Celtics blowing them out and Torrey Craig scoring 15 - 20 points, but the good news
for the Sixers, this loss will propel them straight into the Lottery and a surprising 1st Pick Finish and Cooper Flagg...

If Philly got the #1 pick they probably wouldn't even pick him. :lol:

I resolve to only complain after losses….so probably I’ll be pretty quiet until November.

When is Embiid officially getting shut down? You know it’s coming sooner rather than later.

Don't forget that Xmas Day Game, blow these guys out! Although I believe it's going to be a tougher game then most posters here think.

Idk but I would think they'll shut him down at some point. I think their 1st round pick is like top 5 protected or something. So they need to get a top 5 pick, otherwise it goes to a different team. So that would suck to get like the 6th or 7th pick and not get that pick, plus miss the playoffs on top of it.

So you would think they'd be in full tank mode..

There are rumblings that Walker won't even play in this game. So I've lost all motivation to watch. Pfft.

Is the deal with the Sixers already official? 'Cause Lonnie is NOT on the injury report of the Celtics.

Lonnie Walker is not signing until Friday. David Roddy's 10 day deal expires after the Celtics game, opening up a roster spot.
