Why risk getting hurt by trying to do something so difficult/fancy? Not good baseketball IQ

Probably just competitiveness and did it subconsciously. Either way, it's terrible he's hurt. Embiid is an exceptional player.

Not really. If he landed on the other leg, he's more than likely fine.

If he wasn't Joel Embiid he'd be fine ....

Embiid isn't going to hold up. I know, breaking news. Sucks the guy can't stay healthy. He's a great player.

You can say the same thing about Antonio Davis!

I don't even think its that, Zion hurt himself on a routine play at the rim a couple nights ago and nobody even touched him. Just went up like Embiid, and came down injured. Nothing about that play looked like it should have injured Embiid or Zion, either one. I'm not sure who rules as the true Mr. Glass, gAyD, Zion, or Embiid.

His name is Street Clothes.

Shockingly, Embiid is back.

For a center to throw the ball off the backboard side step a guy, throw it down over another guy and being able to land around other players is nothing close to what happened with Zion lol.

This was far from a “routine” play.

Durcant fans giving LeCan fans a run for their money on the number of excuses made in one post.

If we were Jordan fans we'd just pretend that only losses in the finals count and if you get eliminated earlier you're still undefeated. If you're not first you're last, but only if you're second!!

I'm not even a Durcant fan. I think the GOAT is Oscar Robertson. I'm just a hater of people judging players based on rings.

Lbj is the goat if somehow the Lakers win a championship this year

 

[MM808]

Love when playoffs come around and teams actually play defense

 

[Croaker]

This game would be well out of hand if Embiitch didnt get the whistle

 

[MusterX]

Lakers competitive early, would love to see them force 7 games to at least tire Denver out some.

Omg if the Lakers could at least make this a rough, long series it'd be spectacular
