Philadelphia 76ers Center Joel Embiid is set to have surgery for appendicitis.

There is no timetable for his return

You know I'm starting to think someone has done Voodoo on him. He wasn't feeling well vs the Spurs and finished the Game now seemly this ends his Season just when the Team was starting to figure out even though they are fighting to keep a spot to not play in the Play in again. Now it's Maxey heroics and whatever PG and the Gang gives us going into the Playoffs it's hard to really take investment with them to be honest. I know they'll fight their asses off but Embiid is not there they are going to another Offseason with questions and a fanbase pissed off at the organization.

After 3 years, Hall of fame Coach Doc Rivers is out as coach of the Milwaukee Bucks.

It’s been a tough couple years for the Bucks since winning it all in 2021. Now they head into an offseason of uncertainty with an opening at head coach and questions about the future of their star Giannis.

 

[Barry Poppins]

Unsurprising, he absolutely deserved to be shitcanned.

 

[Cwalker]

Yeah, and as bad as a coach he is, I bet he gets hired by someone else next year

 

[Barry Poppins]

I swear he might be the frontrunner for worst head coach to ever win an NBA Title, he got dragged kicking and screaming to that finals win.

Fuck that puto. I can't make enough posts on how bad a Coach he was for my Sixers.

Rumor has it that future Hall of Fame Point Guard Russell Westbrook will call it a career

In the closing minutes of a 111-96 loss to the Suns that ended their season, Warriors’ coach Steve Kerr, Steph Curry and Draymond Green embrace. Kerr is in the final year of his contract and his future is uncertain.

This may be the official end of the Warrior dynasty

Upset alert!

The #8 seed Orlando Magic just stole Game 1 in Detroit over the Pistons 112-101

Where was that Magic Team the last few Games and in the Play in? We've got a juiced up Celtics team and they've got the overrated imo Pistons in the 1st Round.
