Re: Embiid Updates/Discussion
He knows he's doing this to us. Ugh, ha. At least he's not dull. Seems like he was told something by the brass today. My gut instinct was also that his message is no surgery but maybe doesn't play till January.

Me: Uggh. I'm getting anxious.
Wife (looks up from phone): What have you been telling me about the Sixers all this time?
Me: Huh? I dunno. What?
Wife: Trust the process (looks at phone again)

I agree. The (FINALLY) did it for me. I think he's been waiting and waiting for the official news from doctors and the front office and probably just got an indication that he'll be allowed to play soon...FINALLY. That's how I read it at least.
Ha. The "(FINALLY)" has just been deleted from his post. Commence ultra-analyzing.
Does seem like he was saying that he got good news, but then someone told him that he was saying too much before they were ready.
I don't know. I really don't.
I just need to be put out of my misery.

Re: Embiid Updates/Discussion
"My time is COMING"
And not "my time is HERE"
"Too blessed to be stressed"
Meaning "I'm a fortunate man and even if I have to go under the knife again, so be it."?
"And yea that's a smile" with the (finally) removed? Man, Embiid's very cryptic.
#THEYSLEEP (while I keep working my ass off, haters can hate)
#JustBePatient (uh oh)
#TrustMeOrTrustTheProcess (umm)
#GOD
Doesn't seem like good news to me. The one line that doesn't fit though is the "And yea that's a smile" unless it means "I'm not letting this get me down".

Re: Embiid Updates/Discussion
I dunno. I'm frustrated too at the whole biid thing but still stoked for the future. Nerl the pearl, sauce, and Okafor along with a few others (JG, Holmes, cov, etc) will provide me all the entertainment I need for the upcoming season. I'm excited to see how some of these kids progress this year.
I am almost certain that a good chunk of teams could/would put embiid out at 80-90 % health and giving it a go to see how he plays. I am more than happy our front office is not one of them. Give him all the time he needs.

Re: Embiid Updates/Discussion
Hinke basically avoided the Embiid question during the game tonight. He said they are still meeting with more specialists.

I laughed because I actually am a psychologist working with kids. But yeah, I'm just having fun trying to decipher Embiid's intentions. All in good fun.

I believe the term he used was "we want to get him right".

At least someone gave an update.
The fact that it requires multiple discussions and opinions just tells me that Embiid is in a giant gray area where there is no "right" decision and no matter what they choose about this upcoming year there will be lots of second guessing.
The feedback I've received from our fans is they understand we are trying to build something great. Good decisions come from having a broad set of options and making tough calls. We will do it unblinkingly. We have to be willing to take smart risks-Hinkie

I have to imagine Embiid probably has one of the highest word-to-scrutiny ratios in the world right now.
