If he got it from Jah, it’s mutiny:

As Tom Haberstroh points out, the poo poo bug is coming for everyone this season:

I still wonder if the toilets at the Sixers’ Camden practice facility are normal human sized or super large human sized. That place was custom from the ground up, and there’s no way a 7’2″ dude can be comfortable using the same toilet as me. No way. What was I saying? Right. Joel Embiid is questionable tomorrow with the shits.

Though it still hasn’t been made officially clear, we’re all operating under the assumption that the girl who told Joel Embiid to “come back when you’re an All-Star” is Rihanna. We know he has a crush on her, and the Sixers are now playing highlight clips of JoJo set to “Work.” It’s heavily implied.  Either way, Coach Brett Brown is fully on board with Embiid’s ASG bid, because he’s got good taste in women:

Should he be an All-Star? I don’t care. Sports are supposed to be entertaining and he’s one of the best entertainers in the whole league. Still, let’s not rule out the fact that the crush Embiid is talking about may not actually be Rihanna. Exhibit A:

How’s the voting going? The first totals for NBA All-Star votes on Twitter are in, and the only players in the Eastern Conference with more votes than Joel Embiid are LeBron James, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Kevin Love, Kyrie Irving, Dwyane Wade (legacy vote), and DeMar DeRozan. He has more votes than DeMarcus Cousins, Karl-Anthony Towns, Chris Paul, and Kristaps Porzingis.

If the ASG starters were wholly decided today on these votes, Embiid would just miss the cut. This year, the fan vote (including on NBA.com) counts for 50%, while player and media vote counts for the other 50%. Just get ready for a vote, vote, vote, vote, vote, vote.
