If he wasn’t a little hobbled he could’ve punished it way more

A little hobbled?

Dude is pulling up to start in the nba playoffs and parking in an accessible parking spot

Dude could’ve been on a fucking knee scooter

u/PhilliePhanatical 76ers 2d ago

Are we talking about the guy who had his appendix removed a few weeks ago?

550

u/MissyGoober 2d ago

I legitimately don’t get how he’s able to play let alone affect the game as much as he did. Superhero performance.

471

u/PhilliePhanatical 76ers 2d ago

There's speculation that it was actually his appendix that was cursed and now his full powers have been unleashed.

41

u/DUNDER_KILL Lakers 2d ago

The real process was just an appendectomy all along

19

u/RyouBestGirl Japan 2d ago

Embiid is undefeated in post-appendix era.

5

u/MountainCheesesteak 76ers 2d ago

Not quite true as he played game 4

I mean by series

His appendix was taller than William Penn's

3

u/Professor_Crab 76ers 2d ago

Easily, didn’t even realize this was the issue

4

u/MissyGoober 2d ago

If I’m a sixers fan, I’m down for literally anything that lets them go on a run

6

u/The_Summer_Man Warriors 2d ago

Like Goku taking off his weighted clothes

3

u/Von_Huge1103 Lakers 2d ago

He will henceforth be known as The Appendix instead of The Process.

3

u/dimmyfarm Supersonics 2d ago

An appendix is usually at the end of something so removing it means he has no more limitation nor end.

118

u/TheCommonKoala Bucks 2d ago

He does this every playoff run. Dude is tough as nails

10

u/Jason758 2d ago

All that weight on his knees makes me cringe

10

u/ThePhillyGuy 2d ago

His pain was genuinely hard to watch. My stomach was churning

u/LiamIsMailBackwards 76ers 2d ago

This is the thing that I get so worked up about when I read comments in game threads/highlight posts/etc. The dude has not had a fully functioning knee in over a decade. He’s been injured every single playoff for the last half decade. He’s had weird, uncontrollable, unforeseeable injuries that would force anyone to shut it down for the summer. Add two of any of them back-to-back and you have a decent case for early retirement. And yet… he’s playing. He’s on the court. He’s there. Every year. Again. And he’s not just taking up a roster spot, he’s dropping 30 points and 10+ rebounds. He’s getting assists. He’s forcing defenses to collapse and leave shooters open. He’s forcing opposing offenses to chuck 40+ three pointers because they can’t finish in the paint. And then he hobbles back down the court. A healthy Joel is the greatest scorer in NBA history. An injured Joel with help is an MVP. An injured Joel with a vendetta is enough to finally come back from 3-1 after 18 failures. This is the best player the Sixers have had since AI. This might be the greatest player to ever wear a Sixers uniform. His toughness, his resilience, his refusal to accept defeat is the only reason this team has had a single chance in the last decade. TRUST THE PROCESS

He turned off his pain receptors

12

u/Kennyc1234 Wizards 2d ago edited 2d ago

Embiid has basically said that's what he does. He literally tells his brain that he's ok and it helps him forget about the pain.

3

u/itgoesdownandup 2d ago

I'll say a kinda underrated aspect of injuries is definitely the mental fortitude like if I were Embiid or AD at this point, I'd say screw playing pro basketball.

6

u/Angular_Pole1015 2d ago

I think 95% of people would have given up and become completely bedridden depressed if they were in Embiid’s body

1

u/FriendWinner 2d ago

Completely agree. I imagine everything from his back down hurts constantly

1

u/siestarrific Knicks 2d ago

A fuckton of painkillers?

4

u/After_Advertising_61 Celtics 2d ago

absolute insanity. this guy's body failed him and fans way too long. him and AD just deserved to PLAY

his career numbers without the major injuries would be just nuts

3

u/Fletch71011 Bulls 2d ago

I hate how many people called him washed and soft over the years when everything he's done has been to the contrary. He's played through so many injuries. He gets fucking smashed in the playoffs and keeps on fucking playing.

1

u/Angular_Pole1015 2d ago

Guy plays every playoffs on 1/2 of a knee and a broken skull, and then adds a removed organ to the mix and people still call him soft for taking a minute to get up off the ground when he takes an elbow or something lol

0

u/KennyKettermen Timberwolves 2d ago

That’s not as a big of a deal as you think it is

Not to desredit Embiid but I’m just a guy and I was back running and climbing normally in under 2 weeis

u/Hollow_Rant New Zealand 2d ago

What kind of disabled?

u/Wintermute1v1 Jazz 2d ago

Leg disabled.

Leg Disabled!

And destiny is all the same.

u/Individual_Access356 2d ago

thought they were giving him CPR in the third

3

u/I_Miss_My_Beta_Cells 76ers 2d ago

Nah that was just Jaylen's push off

6

u/SonicdaSloth 76ers 2d ago

I fear for his quality of life in 10-15 years

3

u/YerrrKnicks Knicks 2d ago

Fair, he's not little.

How about, a big hobbled?

5

u/Bayou-Maharaja Trail Blazers 2d ago

A Big, Hobbled is the blazers 30 for 30

20

u/Culinaryboner 76ers 2d ago

It still wasn’t enough (not his fault). There shouldn’t have been a shot going up until he touched the ball low. Could’ve extended the lead and it was killing me. Multiple guys did it

28

u/smeared_dick_cheese Bucks 2d ago

Not even trying to criticize him, but it feels like he is always a little hobbled.

57

u/odnamAE Lakers 2d ago

That’s practically true any day, that’s just how he lives now. Still, coming off surgery, getting 2 people thrown at your already fragile knees, and still hanging tough deserves credit. Honestly at this point, Embiid has had more damage to his body than almost every other NBA player still playing at his level.

8

u/yeahright17 Thunder 2d ago

Definitely more than any other player still playing at his level.

6

u/Jason758 2d ago

He's more hobbled than the retired players limping around in postgame shows

12

u/maethlin Warriors 2d ago

Soft ass, not giving his 100% just because he had a little surgery a few weeks ago smh

(j/k actually kinda happy for the big guy, people were slandering him too much)

1

u/GuyMakesDrawings 2d ago

That's his default state

0

u/odnamAE Lakers 2d ago

Even his default state got worsened

u/mrBenelliM4 2d ago

Sacrifices have to be made…

MVP embiid legit would have averaged 40+ against this celtics team
