For 76ers fans, the most concerned is of course Embiid's injury situation, according to the 76ers official website, Embiid will be determined to miss the first two games of the Eastern Conference semifinals due to facial injuries and concussion symptoms. However, this does not mean that he can play in the later matches, which also assesses whether his concussion meets the requirements for playing. At the same time, the Heat also announced that Lowry will miss G1 due to a hamstring injury. In addition, the injury situation of the remaining 6 teams has also been updated, the Suns can play in all their strength except for Saric, and the Lone Ranger has no exact return date for Harvey Jr.'s left foot injury. The Warriors' Iguodala and Wiseman were also unable to make a comeback in the semi-finals, and the Grizzlies' Adams are close to a comeback. The Celtics' performance in G1 is not optimistic, Smart and Brown are both injured, the problem should not be serious, and the Bucks' Middleton will most likely not come back.
It is foreseeable that after Embiid's injury, Jordan Jr. will have some opportunities. Just today, Jordan Jr. also openly expressed his dissatisfaction in his heart, the first round against the Raptors, he only got 0.8 seconds of playing time, directly abandoned by Rivers, as we all know, although Little Jordan's peak period has passed, the pace and speed of defense can not keep up, basically are eye defense, but in the garbage time to play a 5-10 minutes of practice is also OK, after all, with the boss's salary, do not work in the heart can not go. Rivers was blamed by fans for embiid's injury, when the 76ers had a huge lead of 29 points, but he still put Embiid on the court, which eventually led to injuries. If Rivers could give Jordan Jr. some chances, Spieder's injury could have been avoided, killing two birds with one stone. The answer Rivers gave was that he had to respect the Raptors because the Raptors' main players were all on the court at the time, and it was clear that Rivers was still not confident enough, and he was scared by the reversal.
The Warriors beat the Grizzlies by one point to usher in the opening, but the penalty about Green after the game caused a hot discussion, not only the fans, but even the Real Madrid superstar Kroos could not look at it, he posted that this is also a second-level evil offender? And he also made an NBA referee. It happened in the second quarter, when Green defended Clarke on the basket, and his hand pulled the latter's jersey causing him to fall to the ground, it was obvious that it was an accident, Green did not deliberately throw Clark to the ground, but just hung his outstretched hand on Clark's jersey, and the referee thought that Green's hand hit Clarke's face, so he made the decision of a second-level villain. In fact, not only this time, the warriors were in trouble with fouls, only in the first quarter Curry, Thompson and Peyton II Jr. each got 2 fouls, for which Thompson said after the game that he finished the game with anger.
