All the injury reports have him as questionable - it looks like Philly is waiting to see how he responds at thr shootaround, etc. Yet, the books have the game priced for an Embiid, @ Philly -1.5. Also, there are props for the big guy, and the props on the other players (eg Maxey o/u pts @ 24.5 vs the 26.5 for gm. 2) reflect that Embiid is expected.
Do the books know something other the what's on the official reports? Can anybody explain this?
Embiid doesn't care. Over there, laughing on the bench while his team is down 40 points… He just wants his damn paycheck… we won't see him again. This brings me back to the last series, when Embiid came back, 76ers looked very out of sorts for the first game… everyone passed the ball to embiid so he could take a mid range shot or attempt to get to the rim. it didn't fare well… I was thinking, this team is better without him… sure he pitted up big numbers, got a lot of rebounds, but it's still lost horribly... I think the line is fair, I think 76ers have a chance to take this one. Especially since they got a chance to play without him for a bit and get acclimated with Maxey being the number one guy
