The Philadelphia 76ers have been ready 3½ weeks to get a full 33 minutes out of Joel Embiid. They lastly bought it Friday evening, however it got here in a 98-86 loss to the Orlando Magic that dropped the 76ers to 2-10. “Usually with me it takes two or three or four games to get to myself. Today was a big step in the right direction,” Embiid said after finishing with 20 points and eight rebounds in a game that got away from the 76ers in the fourth quarter. “We’re a brand new group. We have been simply not organized. I assumed our protection was advantageous, however beginning with me we began turning the ball over. Offensively, we have been indecisive. Stuff that we are able to repair.” -via ESPN / November 16, 2024
