Watching Joel Embiid play during the second quarter of game six was painful. He looked like a friend of mine before his knee replacement. Each step was unsure and there was always a threat of falling. Though his known injuries are to his face and hand, he seemed to be struggling to make his legs carry him up and down the court. I remember what an Embiid injury late in the season did to KU’s championship hopes in 2014, and I have seen his injuries late in this season do the same to the 76ers chances this season. Could his team can make a deeper run in the playoffs?
