    Joel Embid should be playing.. He's being babied...

    Philly plays in Miami tonight.. Still no Embid.. I think you gotta like the Heat at home in this one.. Miami Heat +2 is the line..

    Laughable how philly is in panic mode after 1 LOST? Wade won’t be able to play that consistently every game

    Good point about Wade.. If he's gonna keep it up though you'd think he might keep it going coming back home in this game tonight, no?...

    Wade is responsible for the stellar Heat play so far in this series, I agree.. It's like he found the fountain of youth or something..

    no idea why people doubt Wade, all time great type talent, not sure what percentage he is after all those injuries, but he's one of the most smart and crafty guys offensively in the league.

    You can't trust what GMs say at this time of year. Doubtful means questionable. OUT means doubtful.

    Older. And wisdom comes along with that. Heat blew a big lead but held on. Hopefully the sometimey Miami crowd shows up and is loud tonight. Passed Bird last game now 10th on the all time playoff scoring list. Definitely lost a step or two and not the same lift but how can one not love this.

    Been hurt his whole career. Why force the issue when the series isn't in jeopardy?

    I heard a few days ago Embiid said they wont let him play, think he had a concussion and I guess theyre going through protocol.

    Embiid is very angry about the situation. May lead to a distraction.

    Sixers don't even need Embiid to beat Miami. Old man Wade pulled some magic out of his old ass to give them a lift, first loss after 17 wins for the Sixers. They'll lay into the Heat tonight. Sixers by a dozen.

    The longer they wait, the better for Embiid. Whiteside will go right after Embiid's head with an elbow within the first 5 minutes. If they need to play him later, so be it. A broken orbital bone is nothing to play with, guy could lose his eyesight. Hope the Sixers win this series in 5, bring back Joel for the Celtics series. When they play a REAL team.

    ^ Fitted mask should protect him alot against elbows.. They are designed for that...

    Don't write off the Heat, good coach with playoff experience, veterans on the team as well.. They'll play hard tonight at home.. I think the next game the Heat will tank but not this one...

    Funny you think you know more than the team doctors. You don’t think they want him out there?

    They said one more hard hit to that area could impair his vision permanently. They will not allow him to play until he is 100% in the clear, whether you “think” that is the right decision or not.

    Embiid doesn't want to play with a broken face if there's a risk. His twitter post was for the birds.

    The guy is a f....... baby. This is the playoffs, this is what they play for all season long. There is no tomorrow. Might be management, might be the coach, either way this clown should be playing. Just my opinion....Man, after this he can wait until Halloween to play again.

    How effective will he be wearing that Jason Halloween mask all game for the first time? That's the question?... Might throw him off a bit in a intense game like this.. Might get a little hard to breath and see out of the corners of your eyes probably.. Sweat can make it uncomfortable too...

    Yeah he looked real distracted out there tonight. Only 23/7/4 tonight in 30 minutes.

    Wait till he gets comfortable in that thing!
