It's pretty obvious he's embellishing his injury.

Luka is definitely hurt. It's clear as day. If this were the regular season he would be out for 2 weeks.

He's also just fat. It's hard to stay healthy as a professional athlete when you're 20+ lbs overweight.

He was a top three player until he took an arrow to the knee.

Don’t think that makes him miss a FT with 10 secs left that would’ve tied the game.

Hilarious how RealGM will (correctly) use the knee injury excuse for Luka but when Embiid does it…

It took nearly an entire page of comments to acknowledge that he's dealing with multiple injuries


He shouldn't even be out there.

Especially at point guard.
He is quite easily one of the most unfit guards I've ever seen in the NBA, especially in the last two seasons.

I think you are both overblowing the situation though playing against Dort doesn’t make it any easier
Aaron Gordon, Devin Booker, Tyrese Halliburton, Trae Young, Anthony Edwards and Luka Doncic all made the Conference Finals.

Where’s Joel Embiid?

Until you have a legit knee injury it's hard to understand just how much it effects you. Same reason I give Embiid a pass it's hard to play through these things.

Just awful, awful...

still better than Kyrie


Kyrie actually showed up. Luka didn't


I love Kyrie but when did he show up? Not in this series. Two 9 point games and his other games weren't that great for Kyrie either

ATM he probably is still top 10 because he does impact a game with passing and rebounding. However, he's nowhere near his top 3-5 level of play. He's usually been a great playoff performer, but not this season.

Lmao these type of threads are hilarious.

If a player sits, he’s soft with no heart.

If they play and suck, no excuses if you play we expect the same performance as when you’re healthy.

Yeah but I can’t tell if Luka hurt or unhealthy or both-

Plus Kidd got him playing a ton of minutes

lol you can’t tell? When a players most used move is a Step back off their right knee and they totally stop doing it something is wrong. He isn’t even aggressive on offense anymore.

He doesn’t even know how to play without that dumb stepback. Way too dependent on it. Maybe he’ll learn some more moves in the summer
