Oh and yeah Joel Embiid is PLAYING. He's on a minutes restriction and isn't playing in back to backs but that is expected
explain to me a bit more about this if you don't mind. Sure I could google it, but I'd rather talk to you about it.

It means that Embiid seems the healthiest he's been since two years ago. I've sort of accepted the fact that he's not going to be quite as dominant as he was before. It seems he's kind of got chronic knee issues at this point. But if the Sixers can be really conservative and strategic with his play time he can still hopefully be a strong contributor for a few more seasons. With a young core around him and decent big man depth with Drummond and Bona, Embiid can hopefully still provide a lot of value to the team. Even if he's like a Myles Turner-ish level talent that'd be pretty good.
Honestly Embiid's health in general is really mysterious and my expectations for him as a fan are fairly low. But in these first few appearances he's looked alright. There could be a scenario where his minutes are ramped up a bit but I'm just grateful as a fan he can hopefully help the team win. I kinda feel the same way about Paul George whenever he returns. If these veterans can still play at least moderate minutes the depth and talent can be pretty valuable and intriguing.
thanks... that is an excellent explanation and I totally get it now. It's good that they are trying to preserve Embiid and not just use him up and send him out to pasture.
Thanks! And yes I actually agree. Gives him the best chance to extend his career for sure.
