Beaten Saturday night by the Wolves, the Sixers will enjoy three days of rest. It will not be luxury since the team accumulates the glitches, and Tuesday evening, for their next match, the teammates of Joel Embiid will receive the Nets. And who says “Nets” says…” Ben Simmons ! For the first time since his resounding transfer, the Australian leader will find his former teammates, his former public, and the welcome promises to be boiling hot. But Joel Embiid assures that it will not be a match like any other.
“It’s one more game in the calendar”, minimizes the Philadelphia pivot. “I don’t know these guys. I have nothing against them. It’s Brooklyn versus Philadelphia. I hope I will feel better for this game. It’s the same objective: to try to win. Of course, we have a lot of fewer players at the moment, so solutions will have to be found. »
A journalist insists by recalling that it cannot be a match like the others since there is Ben Simmons in the opposing camp.
“There is a lot of experience, but there is not really experience” he nuances. “It’s just a game like any other. I know everyone is going to make a big fuss about everything that happened with the players who went there, and those who arrived here. But they don’t even play, and everything will be fine. »
