Embiid: After playing two or three minutes and then coming down, it would be better to go home and spend time with my family, but I follow the arrangements.
6686 Sports, October 26th Today, the 76ers played against the Hornets in the NBA regular season, and the 76ers won 125-121.
Embid, whose playing time was limited, made 7 of 11 shots in 20 minutes and scored 20 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists. After the game, Embiid talked about his playing time limit.
Embid: I don’t expect too many playing restrictions, but I have to follow the arrangements. The longer you sit and the more fragmented your playing time becomes, the harder it is to find a rhythm. There is no point in playing two or three minutes and only running two or three times on offense and defense. It is better to go home and spend time with your family. Only by playing continuously for a long time can you slowly enter the competitive state. But having said that, playing for a long time may also cause you to be exhausted at halftime. But I really can't sit for too long. It's one thing to meet the physical fitness standards, but it's another thing to be in competitive shape. You have to play more games to maintain it. Instead of playing for 6 minutes, resting for 10 minutes, and then coming back to play for 6 minutes, it has no effect at all. But I still trust the coaching staff and will continue to persevere until my body fully recovers.
I have no idea when the playing time limit will be lifted. I can only communicate my thoughts to the coaching staff every day. It’s best if they listen. If they don’t listen, I can’t help it.
