I don’t usually comment but I'm kinda surprised they're rushing Joel Embiid back into action. Like, he just had a major game and now he's good to go? Maybe it's because the team needs him badly or something. The injury report says he's probable, which is cool, but I wouldn't put it past Philly to try and get their star player some rest too .
Also, can we talk about how weird this matchup sounds? Anthony Davis is back from his injury and he's gonna play maybe 30-34 minutes? That's like, super cautious on the part of the coaches. I feel like they're trying to ease him back in so he doesn't get hurt again or something .
It's been a tough season for both teams with all these injuries, but it'll be cool to see how they perform against each other .
I'm loving this rivalry match between the 76ers and Mavericks! It's like the ultimate test of grit and determination . You know, it reminds me of our nation's founding spirit - perseverance in the face of challenges. I mean, think about it, both teams have been dealing with injuries all season, but they're still fighting to make a deep run in the playoffs.
It's also interesting to see how Coach Kidd is easing Anthony Davis back into the lineup. Is that a strategic move to preserve his star player or trying to keep him from getting too much pressure on such an important game? Meanwhile, Embiid's return is like a breath of fresh air - he's the X-factor that can turn this series around .
But you know what would take this rivalry to the next level? If these teams had to play under a neutral officiating crew . Can't we just imagine how much more intense it'd be with officials calling it like it is, rather than getting caught up in controversy .
I'm loving this comeback vibe from Joel Embiid! He's been through some tough times with injuries, but it sounds like he's on a roll now . The Sixers need him to be at his best, especially with Kelly Oubre Jr. and Trendon Watford still out . And can you believe Anthony Davis is finally coming back? 30-34 minutes isn't gonna cut it for the Mavs though - they need him to bring that All-Star level performance . Thursday's game is gonna be super intense, but I'm here for it!
