Didn't think the Hawks had what it takes to get another win. Loving them showing otherwise right now. Thought this was going to be a snoozefest.

Sixers have trouble scoring... I wonder if Jokic would ignite this offense? :wink: :wink: :wink:

Embiid isn't healthy. Has to give it his all in this game though because he's only going to get more worn down as the series progresses.

Tobias has been pretty good this season, but he's ideally a 3rd option.

I just can't buy into the Sixers at all when Simmons becomes a completely liability at the end of games + Embiid's health is always a concern.

It's pretty much written in the stars for the Bucks to make the finals.

Finally. Philly's been leaving the door open for like the last 15 minutes. Hawks should probably be up about 15 by now, but they couldn't hit open/good shots.

He has no lift or energy. I get that his knee is messed up but he spent half the game on the floor complaining.. Not a good look.

I didn't watch the first 3 quarters...did Trae get injured in this match or did he have some shoulder issues even before this match?

What are Embiid’s injuries? I read he has a torn meniscus? But I thought his back was an issue?

Is it both?

Yeah, they blew a bunch of possessions when they were down 92-88; hope that doesn't cost them

He's made of glass. Has a torn meniscus along with his perennial ailments of a bad back and bad knees.

"Partially" torn meniscus, apparently. Pretty sure you shouldn't play, especially with that kind of weight on his knees, if it was true. Seems like a guaranteed way to completely tear it, but what do I know?
