Honestly, most of the people critical of the Sixers are just mad/disappointed their franchise didn't do the same. The other small portion of fans are either Warriors fans or Heat/Cavs fans

You have no idea how many times I had the same conversation about the Sixers, when people would be like "eh they stink, they're so bad, etc" and I would be like JUST WAIT WATCH WHAT THEY ARE DOING!

Those same fucking people are the same scrubs in the seats chanting "TRUST THE PROCESS" at home games :rofl:

As good as he is I just think he's one injury away from being Bynum.


I don't think I will ever understand a comment like this.

So what, the Sixers should just get rid of him or what?

You are either Andrew Bynum or you're not. There is no in between. Right now he isn't Andrew Bynum, so saying he is one injury away

is just pointless and irrelevant.

Could he turn into Andrew Bynum? Sure, I dunno. No one does. So what does it matter now?

Is everyone a 7+ footer with a history of lower extremity injuries?

So you don't understand why people discuss a player's health on a forum about sports? I wasn't aware that injuries were among the list of banned topics.

I wasn't saying they should keep him or get rid of him. I was simply stating my opinion on the matter.

Bigs that have had multiple serious injuries like Embiid simply don't last in the league
None of them have been handled like Embiid either though

It's ok to be really concerned about his near future
Sure that everyone is 1 injury away from being Bynum, but you can't tell me he isn't way more likely than anyone else to get injured

Lol you guys keep talking about Embiid's old injuries, while he continues to dominate and the Sixers win games.

Nope u can. But saying he's one injury away from being bynum is just dumb. You're either bynum or you're not. Right now he's not.

Multiple serious injuries? He's had one serious injury. The other one they were just being overly cautious.

I love Embiid and have called him baby Hakeem
Obv it's time for the memes to die

Just saying bigs are the worst when it comes to injuries
I really hope he stays healthy
