Joel Embiid out for Sixers-Bucks on Thursday, Paul George set to return

So the Sixers are getting destroyed without Embiid . This is what happens when you can't get your star players healthy, it's like the team is running on fumes . I mean, Coach Nurse is trying to limit George's minutes, but isn't that just gonna make the rest of the team overwork themselves? It's like they're trying to make a power move without actually being able to execute .

And what about the Bucks? They get Giannis out and suddenly their whole game changes . But I guess that's what happens when you have a superstar player who can single-handedly carry your team to victory . It just goes to show, in the NBA, it's all about the superstars and how they dictate the flow of the game .

I'm curious though, will the Sixers be able to turn it around without Embiid? Can they find a way to win games with this makeshift lineup . Only time will tell, but one thing's for sure, it's gonna be an interesting ride .

I don’t usually comment but... I think it’s weird that they’re letting Giannis sit out with a strained groin and Paul George gets to play despite being questionable for two nights. Like, what's the deal? It seems like some players are getting priority treatment or something . And on another note, why is Tyrese Maxey expected to play with a minor quadriceps contusion? I mean, that sounds kinda sketchy. Don’t get me wrong, he’s an awesome player and all, but shouldn’t they be more cautious when it comes to injuries?

This development has me pondering the nuances of player management, particularly with regards to Embiid's knee injury. It's intriguing that he'll be held out for another game despite being deemed "likely" to play on Thursday, highlighting the complexities of balancing rest and recovery with team cohesion.

This season's constant injury updates are getting old... it feels like every other day there's someone new missing from the lineup . I'm just wondering how this team can stay afloat with all these guys going down . Embiid's knee issues seem to be a recurring problem, and it's starting to take its toll on the team's overall performance . On the bright side, Tyrese Maxey is expected to play despite having a minor injury - that's some resilience right there ! Guess this just means Paul George gets to have all the minutes for once ...

Ugh, another game without Joel Embiid ... this knee injury is just so frustrating! I mean, he's one of the most dominant players on the court and now we're stuck watching him sit out. And what's up with Paul George being cleared to play after coach Nurse said earlier he wasn't ready for a back-to-back? Like, can't they make up their minds?!
