Beijing time on April 6, the NBA officially announced that it would fine the Philadelphia 76ers $100,000 for violating NBA injury reporting regulations.
As for the reason why the 76ers were severely punished, the official reason given by the NBA was that the severity of the punishment was based on the 76ers' previous violations of this regulation. This means that the original punishment was not that serious, but it turned out that the Sixers were a habitual offender, so the league increased its punishment.
The ins and outs of this incident are: During the 76ers' game against the Thunder on April 3, Joel Embiid returned from injury. However, the 76ers did not accurately indicate in the pre-game report whether Embiid could play, and their initial injury report stated that Embiid would not play against the Thunder.
It can be seen from this that it is no wonder that the league is so ruthless. Who told the 76ers to not abide by the rules and refuse to change despite repeated admonitions? The last time your Embiid came back against the rules, he was already fined by the league. If you haven't learned your lesson yet and don't take the alliance's rules seriously, then the alliance will have to increase the punishment to make you remember. You deserve it!
Why did the 76ers insist on letting Embiid return from the firing line when they knew that he might be severely punished by the league if he returned in violation of regulations? The reason is very simple, that is, they have reached the point where they cannot afford to lose. If they continue to lose, the 76ers will really have to fight in the playoffs to compete for playoff tickets. But they don't want to get playoff tickets through the play-offs, because they are originally a playoff team. In order to go further, they must want to lock in a playoff spot before the end of the regular season. This is the fundamental reason why Embiid wants to come back!
Now it seems that Embiid's illegal comeback is worth even if he is fined $100,000 by the league. Because the effect of Embiid's comeback is immediate! In the days when the Great was absent, the 76ers fell from the top three in the Eastern Conference to the eighth in the Eastern Conference, and losing became commonplace. After Embiid returned, they finally became themselves again. Their current three-game winning streak gave them hope of locking in the playoffs in advance! After all, the 76ers are now only 1 game behind the sixth-place Pacers. With 5 regular season games left, it is entirely possible for Embiid to lead the team to reverse course and avoid the play-offs, thereby locking in the playoffs in advance. race.
