He still said it though. I don't know what a rerun has to do with anything. And I didn't hear it this morning.

I agree with this.

thats not true he said it on a random radio show from LA which has no proof of existance. Embiid isnt even injured he just doesnt like basketball, duh!

Pay closer attention to detail (hint: read EVERY word)

If it were good news, or even news that said it will not be an issue come October...it would have been announced by now. That's all I know. So whatever the news is,,,,,Hinkie is deliberately stalling for the best opportunity to let down the fans.

Lol. Letting down the fans would be rushing Embiid back if he's not ready. It's not about getting Embiid on the court this year. It's about having him have a long healthy successful career. If he has to get another surgery then that's just what will happen.

The surgery was completely successful. Anyone can tell that after the first 3 months when they check the screws, and their stability. The Sixers announced through the Doctor that Embiid's surgery was 100 %. So if he has to have another one, that ONLY means that Embiid re-injured it because he wasn't doing what the Rehab specialist said, or because Embiid Injured it again doing something off the court he shouldn't have. But those are the only two options. If Embiid has to have another Surgery, then two things should happen. One...Embiid should be outright Cut & released from the team ( Don't need no more Andrew Bynum's here )...and Hinkie should be shown the door Immediately!

Pure ignorance.

The surgery was 100% successful at the time of its execution because it accomplished its goal. That has nothing to do with the injury being 100% healed. Otherwise he should have been able to play basketball the day after the surgery.

The body heals injuries. Surgery sets up the body to be able to do it most efficiently and with the best outcome. Surgeons to not heal people.

If he requires more surgery it does not mean that he reinjured it. This is one of the most irrational and ill informed things that I have ever read about Embiid.

If Embiid needs another surgery we should cut him? Why, because we need the roster spot? It makes no sense whatsoever.

I hope that he doesn't need another surgery, but if he does then we will just have to live with it. The Embiid injury saga(good or bad) will not end for another few years. He either will put the whole mess behind him after being healthy for a few years, or he will struggle with failed attempts to get healthy for the next few years. Either way, it doesn't end this summer.

probably the only surgery we're talking here is a bone graft, or something related to necrosis. 'cause his navicular isn't as thick as they would like it to be. the expectation was that after it healed it would grow in response to the moderate stress of working out. it hasn't grown as much as they were hoping. they've probably been giving it more time before follow up scans, 'cause non-invasive would obviously be much preferred.

You can have a successful surgery then have the healing process slow for a number of reasons. Particularly in an area that receives poor blood flow. The lack of healing was likely not caused by Embiid considering he was fortunate enough to be monitored by medical specialist much more closely than the average patient.

Interesting. How are you familiar with this type of info? Medical field? Had similar surgery? Read a lot?

Best friend, his brother is a specialist surgeon, dealing with Scaphloid Injuries. Has done over 300 Navicular surgeries of Embiid's kind. Both to regular patients, and Pro Athletes. And he himself said he has never seen anyone, Athlete or otherwise take longer then 7 total months to completely be healed, and out playing whatever professional sport that they play. That is where I get my information from. And sudden growth or blood flow has nothing to do with it. When my Friends Brother heard that he laughed his A S S off. :-)

This is one of the worst posts I've ever seen on this board. What a moron.

When you have surgery, it's deemed successful if it's completed correcty with no issues. This does not mean you will respond to the healing process, especially for pro athletes.

ALOT can happen during healing and the rehabilitation process post surgery. You don't look at screws and say "hey your good go run and jump" .

I never said that. I said that usually after that type of surgery, that after the 3 month period, they can then determine IF the stress fracture stability to holding true to the screw placement. Yes, right after the surgey they can tell if the screws are in place. And yes, shortly afterwards, there can be some displacement of the screws, and the stability in the first few weeks that will be noticed at the 3 month mark during the first Inspection of the fractured foot area. But, after that 3 month time frame, if there is no disturbance of the screws, and the foots stability, then it IS HEALED Son!! Only thing to do now is continue with the Re-hab and get good flexibility and blood flow going. Now, if there is a lack of blood flow through the Injured area, then blood can and WOULD be Injected into that area, and that would Guaranteed the Bone structure of the Navicular area to continue getting it's core strength back. Only way it can be hindered is to completely fracture another area of the Navicular...and that can only happen if a Patient is doing something/Acivity that they shouldn't be too soon or doing an activity that is too risky period.

And that comes right from my friends Doctor brother. Oh, but I guess you know more Huh " Doogie " ???

Honestly man i'm not even worried about this. Embiid can take as much time as he needs. With Noel and Okafor in the mix, it's just hard for me to get upset about the Embiid situation. Maybe.....we should have taken Aaron Gordon?:-* That's the only minor regret I'll ll have if this ends up failing.

I certainly hope he's healthy and ready to go by the start of the season. If not, let him rehab for another year and let's roll with Okafor and Noel. Ultimately, those are the two I see being here long-term.

sixerkitty · Post #1280 » by **sixerkitty** » Sat Jul 11, 2015 4:25 pm

I am done with this. Look, you can have 10 new Doctors examine him, and get 10 different opinions. Bottom line is I will wait for any official word from either Hinkie, or Embiid himself. Until then, it's all just speculation. I will hope for the best, and react to the worst once it becomes official. Until then I will concentrate on the players who are on the court, and who are playing.
