At least it was no concussion.Embiid out for remainder of game with 'facial contusion' (which means bruising).
Hornets had a nice start against Cavs but Cleveland up 5 nearing half time.

Gotta be a selfish Ben scoring game, too.Yup! Rest up tonight and see where we stand tomorrow.
Amir is resting tonight so leaves us a bit short in the big-man category - need the shooters to light it up in the 2nd half.

The only silver lining to the Embid injury is we get to work on our biggest weakness statistically in 2018, which is basically how we go both offensively and defensively when Joel is not on the court up until the palyoffs. That is provided it is only a two week layoff. (Playoffs begin April 14th). If the injury is any longer than the minimum listed of two weeks then obviously our chances of getting past the first round have decreased massively.
Pretty upset about this.
With Joel, we're playing well enough to beat any of those teams.
Shitty accident and Joel now out for 2-4 weeks.
I think we are safely falling no lower than 5 in the playoff standings.. My question is do we want to actually finish 5th and bring back embiid in game 2 in Indiana or 3 in philly? Without embiid Indiana would probably beat us so we save our home games for when embiid is back and hope to win 5 or 7 on the road?Knowing our history with injuries he MIGHT return to 5on5 practice by next seasons training camp
But for real, I hope we see him in the playoffs... I he's our guy to turn up on the big stage and the guy to light the city up.
Yeah which is why I would want him back as soon as we can if we match up with Indiana, probably wont beat them without Embiid.I think we are safely falling no lower than 5 in the playoff standings..

I very much doubt it. Plus, good luck to them trying to tell him he can play but on a mins restriction in the playoffs.Yeah which is why I would want him back as soon as we can if we match up with Indiana, probably wont beat them without Embiid.
Would he be on a minute restriction? This type of injury doesnt really look like you need to be too cautious about it (other than wearing a mask lol), but not something you could take away minutes.
