Is it confirmed that Joel Embiid will be playing today?
With their game tonight against the undefeated, Cleveland Cavaliers. It's not only Joel Embiid that's not going to play.

But also PG13 won't be able to play. So, we might see another great win for the Cavaliers tonight and they will continue with their 12-0 streak plus their potential win against the 76ers.

Yep, it has already been announced earlier that the Sixers will go against the Cavs with no allstar. Too bad for them as they started the season in bad shape. It may be difficult to catch up when Embiid and PG will not be able to play sooner. They'll probably going to be the worst team in the East.
The Cavs will most likely continue to rally with their winning streak as it is difficult for the Sixer to pull an upset against a red hot team.
With their condition, they're likely to get another lose then.

This surely is a bad start and they're one of the most expensive teams out there. But look at how they are performing right now, they're struggling on the East.

What a big waste but for sure they'll have some shuffle coming then to save some money and get a better prospect to trade.

Imagine Dallas and GSW facing each other on the playoffs, that would be a lovely sight to see .Klay against his old team, I really expected him to be the key figure there until he retires, didn't really see how he would be let go but that did happen, and I am sure that he is going to be playing better against them at all times because he knows their system in and out, so he would be bale to see what's going on before it happens.

Playbooks do change yearly, but most of the stuff stays the same and I believe Klay would be able to see the plays before they happen and that could help them a ton. Of course Warriors would be ready for that, and would draw plays that look similar to previous ones that Klay know, but with a slight change that would put them at advantage to give warriors some easy points.

All in all, I believe this could be very fun, we could definitely see this getting a lot of attention and we could definitely see this growing a lot as well. Definitely highly watched series.
That would probably one of the best games ever. It's like a friendship betrayal series of an anime where we'd see two bestfriends became each others enemies. I like how most of the Warriors fans and staff that have shown pure love to Klay. They sure did missed the guy and with that welcoming is very heartwarming. He's touched for sure but then, the individual fans will never get back their love for Klay even if he's no longer part of the Dub Nation and with the GSW's win, that's a close one.

The Cavs will most likely continue to rally with their winning streak as it is difficult for the Sixer to pull an upset against a red hot team.

And I think even if Joel or even PG played, it's going to be very hard for the Sixers to win against the league leading Cavs. They are almost complete in all positions, and they have a good second stringers as well that can put the final punch on their opponent.

But yeah, just too bad on what has happen to the Sixers lately, they acquired PG, but then Joel is not that healthy at the start and he seems to have some mental issues as well. Maybe in the second half they could rally, but same with the Bucks, they are going to struggle to get into the playoffs unlike the previous years.

I missed this game but only watched the highlights...

Same here, I just finished watching, and it was such a fun game. Klay Thompson played well, and Dallas even took the lead in the 4th, but the Warriors came back with Curry's 3-pointer and clutch free throws. In the last shot, Dallas couldn't push it to overtime.

I can already picture the playoff scenario; if Klay keeps up that kind of shooting in the coming games, then Dallas should be a real contender.
Hitting 6-12 on 3-pointers... that's huge, especially in tight games.

But the Dallas team keeps on losing even if Klay hit that big numbers, however, I will say that that last year they have the same start, but then finishes strong in the second half. So most likely they are still trying to get their groove again, as they have their own version of big 3 with Luka, Kyrie and Klay.

And just imagine if in one of those games, they 3 click, that will be scary.

however, in this game, the Warriors can't be deny and they spoil Klay going back to Chase Center.

Like what you've said, if these 3 stars start to click together I mean there offensive attacks start to blend well it really tough to guard them, with Gafford and Lively that's a big threat again in the west side, just in the regular season though so we might see improvements from them, and same with your observation, last season they also have that kind of start then they manage to reached the finals.

Let see if they can duplicate  the same outcome knowing that the level competition now is really tough, most of the team from the West really improves their squad and really performing well.

What a game between the Dallas Mavericks and the Golden State Warriors. As expected, Klay was given a standing ovation and tribute videos. But at the end of it all, they are no longer "friends", and the Splash brothers guarded each other and trash talk. And at one point, Klay did the shimmy and Curry just shake his head.

And it was really a great game, but in the end, Curry had his switch, guarded by Lively and then hit that dagger three and then celebrate with his night, night. So with this big win, the Warriors are back and another rival of them will be next, it's against the Grizzlies of Ja Morant.
I missed this game but only watched the highlights. Truly, it was another masterpiece for Steph Curry. It was his first game of the season and he gave them hell even if his splash brother was there. 37 points and a night night. Klay Thompson badly wanted to win that game, he played strong offensively but Steph scored the last 12 points in the 4th quarter to stop the Mavericks from stealing that home game.

That's 1 NBA Cup win for the Warriors. If they want to take that trophy they need more players to step up their games. Kuminga played great but Buddy Hield was 2 of 8 on outside shots. I hope he is just surprised now that Steph is back.

I believe the skinny ones have a lesser chance of being injured, especially if they are guards who don't bump into other players much. Forwards and centers though are going to be a problem and Chet Holmgren is one. You are not wrong that Wemby might also end up being injured someday but I think he can build those leg muscles while he is still young and some footwork training might also help out.
I remember Steve Nash who I believed didn't have an ending-career leg injury because of his damn footwork as a soccer player. Those kinds of training will do them good.

Chet's plus for OKC is high, now the Thunder will be forced to play small ball most of the time and will rely on their offensive strength. 134 total points against the Clippers is damn high.
When they are guards, that's true and they do have less chance, skinny and short is fine, that makes the core fine and that is definitely something that protects them.

I am talking about 7+ feet tall skinny dudes, like Chet and Wemby, and to be fair there aren't that many of them, those two are the only ones getting serious minutes and nobody else exists. They need to reach at least Sabonis levels of weight, he is not fat, he is not even muscled, he is just normal and if they can reach that, then they will be better. If they increase their knee and leg muscles enough, and a bit of core, they could be unstoppable for the league and do very well, I believe in them and they have a great future, they can definitely become amazing.

That kind of love from the fans, and with the way he played the game though his not on the same team but he shows up for those fans who loves  him that he still have it, a very close game almost a snatch but GSW manage to seal it with that dagger from Curry, almost an OT if Luka manage to make that last shot as they've got enough time.

Next game for GSW is another challenging game a very young and talented squad that will test them the way Ja' leading the Grizzlies he's bringing the sparks and boosting his team.

Great defense on Luka though, the Warriors knows that the ball is going on Luka, and so they try to play tough defense without fouling him. As for the game of Klay, it's just average though, however, Curry is pump up facing his former team and he has something to say to Thompson. Maybe in their next game at Dallas, it could be a very different game as the crowd will be on Luka's side.

I think with the way the Warriors this season, and as I have said before, this could be the best version of them post championship. And after a couple of games, Buddy Hield has been check but definitely, he will have another one of those great games and it could be against the young Grizzlies. This two has history already, and for sure, Curry if he can have the Warriors in his back again, will do everything to keep their momentum and beat Ja. And the game will be at Chase center, so we all know that Warriors are also a great home team.

I really can't take Klay serious anymore. First all the theater in the offseason and now even in this game, this guy has to grow up and move on. So glad the GSW won that one, I couldn't image the interview from Klay after the game if they would have won that one. Well, in the end it didn't happen and I couldn't be more happy about it. Guess the next meeting between these teams will be as spicy as this one, and hopefully also down to the wire!

I watched the game but didn’t stick around for the Klay interview. I will say that I thought the Warriors did a great job with Klay’s intro and the Captain hats were a nice touch. You could tell Klay didn’t want to care about their video tribute but by the end he was holding back tears. Steph is still the man though.

So much love for Klay when they create that tribute for him and for sure Klay really feel that especially fans give him standing ovation. Its nice to see Warriors still give a respectful honor to the player who bring lots of championship on their team and for sure with this there would be no bad blood towards his former teammates.

Klay provably holding his tears since what Warriors provably melt his heart.

We also see how truly good Curry for performing so good in this important game, also Thompson play good basketball this game that's why both of them get great recognition after the game ends.

Yeah, I think Klay is not concern at all about the hat, and for me, those fans could have affected Klay's game and his mentality, although he had a good game with 22 points. But Steph is very competitive and you can see that he has something to say about when he was fouled by Klay. So I really like the competition in him and at the end of the day, they are in the opposite sides now. So the focus is to beat him and beat him badly.

KD is still out of the Suns, but no problem as Booker led the team against a lowly team of Jazz. Just bad season for the Jazz though, it could be next year that the might start rebuilding again.

OKC is truly unstoppable if SGA will have a Mamba mentality since he has a very good accuracy that makes him very hard to guard. He usually just like to team play letting his teammates do most of the work that’s they lose on crucial whenever his teammates can’t deliver.

This game SGA unleashed his full potential since he knew that they don’t have Chet while the team rely on his shooting solely.

He should keep doing this when Playoffs if he wants to have a shot with the ring since OKC roster is full of young talent that always choke on crucial games.
That would be his next evolution as well. Kobe was never liked by his teammates, not until the very end at least, he has been always hated by most of his teammates, but he did get respect eventually.

When he was just some 18 year old kid, that was a very tough thing to do, having mamba mentality at that age was tough because he was neither that good yet, nor he was respected and proven himself. With time, he got more and more respect and he got better and people just kept on hating him but understood why he was like what he was and played accordingly.

SGA needs to realize, he doesn't need to be liked, he can be hated, as long as he is respected, that's all there is to it. Instead of trying to help his teammates get better, he could just force his own shots, SGA taking a tough shot could very well be more efficient than some of his teammates taking a wide open shot. The moment he gains that mamba mentality, he is going to be unstoppable.

Or alternatively, OKC could actually get some good decent players, then in that case SGA doesn't have to be like that, he could share the ball and since others are decent too, they won't really screw it up and they could score as well.

Is it confirmed that Joel Embiid will be playing today? If he does debut this season in the NBA In-Season Tournament, I’m surprised by the current odds for their matchup against the New York Knicks. The Sixers are the underdog here, but there's no doubt the Sixers is more way stronger when Embiid is on the floor. Still, it's a risky bet as this game is definitely unpredictable. But I’m going with the Sixers this time, assuming Joel Embiid will be playing tonight.
I wouldn't put a bet on the Sixers still even if Embiid will play (which he played, but not on his best shape).
Also, add the fact that they're up against the Knicks who have arguably one of the best starting 5 right now.

Maybe let's add to the mix that Maxey is out for this game hence, the odds are heavily favoring the Knicks. Knicks win in the end by 12 points with 6 players including 5 starters are in double digits. Embiid scored only 13 points while PG13 carried the team with 29 points. It's too early for me to predict against the Sixers, but I'm having this feeling where the big 3 of George, Embiid, and Maxey will be just like the big 3 of Kyrie, Durant, and Harden in Brooklyn. They will rarely play all 3 at the same time. I wonder what's the problem with the Sixers right now.
