The Philadelphia Sixers irritated the NBA… Before the start of the season, the president of the 76ers Daryl Morey announced it loud and clear: the franchise counts household Joel Embiid et Paul George during the regular season. The objective? Being able to count on them in the Playoffs.
For its part, the 30-year-old interior was more cash: we should never see it again on a back-to-back. Problem, the League, in its TV deal, is committed to fighting against load management. By highlighting the presence of stars for the biggest shocks.
And for the first poster of the season, the Sixers presented themselves without Embiid against the Milwaukee Bucks (109-124). And this highly anticipated match quickly turned to the advantage of the Bucks… This week, the native of Yaoundé will once again miss the matches against the Toronto Raptors and the Indiana Pacers.
Officially, he is recovering from knee discomfort. But the NBA has decided to launch an investigation into the management of Philadelphia, according to information from ESPN. This is a logical procedure on the part of the League, particularly in relation to the broadcasters.
On the other hand, it will be interesting to see the NBA’s decisions if Joel Embiid is too often left out of the big posters…
