As far as I’m concerned, this is Maxey’s team now. I don’t think Embiid is ever getting back to his regular form and will just start to fade away. Even if he gets back to playing, the constant injuries will prevent him from getting any form of consistency and his playing time will eternally be for ramping up only to get sidelined again, then repeat.

So you're calling him The big tease.

Sounds a lot like processed cheese to me.

everything feels so unserious this year. I get he had a major injury last season, and (barely) played in the olympics (which he was out of shape for).

but then he had 2 months to rest, recover, and train to be ready for the season opener, and just wasn't for some reason? perhaps his last good shot at a finals run before he is injured again and/or PG is too old. makes no sense.
