We know, the Sixers have decided to spare Joel Embiid from October to April to allow him to be 100% in the playoffs. In Philadelphia, we no longer want the Olympic champion to play injured, and forcefully. And it's the same in training.
“It will be complicated” he recognizesregarding the restrictive measures imposed by the staff. “They know that if they have to hit me, slap me, confiscate my things [pour] not enter the field, they will have to do it… I can get angry, I can insult people, but I think it's a relationship. We have been working together for years. Now I'm looking at the bigger picture and I've always listened to them, but now it's even more of a time to listen and see what they have to say. »
For his part, Joel Embiid lost around ten kilos to relieve his joints, and be able to play as many matches as possible without pain or surgical procedures.
As he explains, it’s a “partnership” between him and the staff, and this season, he will abandon individual honors. “They are aware of it. They know me » continues Joel Embiid. “I've already accomplished a lot, but one thing is missing…They know that's the only thing on my mind. »
