Dam Brian you look tired. We need you ready for the playoffs, take it easy.
Might need to start load managing.
Doc gonna have to start dodging Denver stories like Embiid lol
@@BenSmith56789 I don’t think no-fap is gonna help him sleep bro
@@ass640😂
Needs to manage his load better
This must be the first injury where Brian didn't drop a video within 10 minutes of it occurring
Maybe Brian himself was injured
Almost like he set up these injuries somehow
Brian is load managing
And I am absolutely disgusted with the drop off in quality because of it 😂😂
Ok because he has a real job as well. It’s ok if he can’t edit a quick one if he’s on duty. 👍
What’s happening with your eye doc? You doctors have an underground fighting league?
First rule of Doc fight club..
bro givs tons of evidence why it is commitio cordis and it perfectly matches the symptoms. and you think your theory trumps that? i dont like the jab either but thats just silly@@robwhitesays
somebody didnt like his diagnosis
Maybe there will be another video about it. It could be the reason Doc is late for this vid.
@@nydibs😂
Doc is following the 1st rule of Fight Club.
What's the 1st rule of fight club?
Best sports medicine channel available! Thanks as always Dr. Brian!
Great analysis as always. Really like your insight into previous injuries showing up on MRI and the soft tissue information.
Embiid weighs 280lbs and is a 7 footer. He has had consistent knee issues since his college days. People of his size from a physics perspective are not supposed to be doing the things that he does daily on the court. I give him another 3 years max before (medical) retirement bells start knocking at his door..⏳
Yea if ppl didn’t hate him so much
@@beankobe8205I doubt many “hate” him: just that his flop and foul hunting and penchant for self aggrandizement is off putting. His stans who think it’s all wonderful and tear down other players are the truly obnoxious ones
@@nenevz2948 bro he was laid out on the floor and kuminga fell on his knees . How is that a flop?? Embied didn’t have the ball stupid?
@@nenevz2948 he falls down a lot to reduce impact on his legs, most haters call that his flopping
@@TheNickhammond no he flops he doesn't "fall down to reduce impact" lmao and he's a stat padder!
really great insight for students Brian thanks!
Torn meniscus 🙏🏽to a speedy recovery Joel
Dr. Brian, you good? You look a little exhausted. Get some rest, good man. Appreciate the great content!
If somebody laying across your leg _when it's flat on the ground_ causes a knee injury this easily, I don't know how any of those NFL players are ever able to finish a game?
it involves abusing pain killers and not caring about your wellbeing after age 45
Thanks doc, good info. On another note though, have you made a change to your recording setup recently? the sound is a bit muffled on your last few videos.
Brian, as a PT, I’m always happy to watch and understanding your videos are top notch and fascinating to listen to! Would you have any opinion or possibility of doing a video on the susceptibility to injury that big men have in the NBA? We always hear about Embiid’s, Zion’s, AD injuries etc. I’d be interested to see if there’s just a correlation between larger anatomy and the higher forces of the NBA being an unfortunate mix. I also understand that each case is different and can’t be generalized. But just a nerdy thought! Keep grinding 💪🏾
Kareem, Moses Malone, Wilt, etc, weren't known for their injuries until later in their careers. Like pitchers who overtrain nowadays and have to get Tommy John surgery, I think it has to do with modern training techniques.
That's just my opinion, though. Doc knows more.
Interesting analysis once again, thanks! Let's hope Embiid is okay, cannot imagine the stresses a big player's joints and tendons go through, especially when playing at Embiid's level.
Your videos have actually been a big help to me, I'm in the last stages of medical school. Anatomy has not been my strongest field (and I'll probably be a gp or an internist anyway) but I've learned a lot from you because I've had the opportunity to combine my interest in basketball with anatomy and trauma mechanics, thank you for that!
He needs to hit the weights.
@@jwatson181be fr rn
Hey Doc, is your eye okay? Your left eye looks swollen compared to your right eye. Thank you for all the videos by the way I love watching them!
Hey, Doc! Are you part of a fight club now? Haha Great vid as usual.
Poor Brian looks so tired since he's got a baby 😅
I hope he gets back soon but he probably shouldn’t have been playing in the first place. Thanks for showing him trying to jump and his left knee buckling. Totally makes sense, he had limited mobility going into the game.movement
My favourite video in a while!! As someone in undergrad hoping to go into the field i love hearing about these slightly more complex cases and nitty gritty details like comlications with imaging.
Great explanation.
The falling used to happen to me as a teenager. I had a swollen bump on my knee and it would make me fall sometimes in high school. I would exaggerate it in front of girls, but it would be sore on and off. It’s good now. I think it was because of a growth spurt
Hey Doc! Always enjoy your content and analysis as I have been practicing as a doctor of physical therapy for the past 24 years. My take on Kuminga landing directly on the patella itself, it could easily aggravate an existing chondrolamacia condition especially since he's had recent reported soreness and swelling in that left knee. In my experience, it would almost have to be direct trauma pinpointing right at the patellar tendon itself as it attaches to the tibial tuberosity for there to be any pain and Kuminga's backside shouldn't/wouldn't be that pointed. Again just throwing in my 2 cents to add to your brilliant analysis. Would love to collab with you so feel.free to reach out should you have any interest to do so!
Love me another Missouri sports fan. Love the vids!!!!
I really like Your videos, however i often lack a very critical piece of information in them. It is interesting to hear about the medical side of the injury but the practical consequences are what i'm most interested in. That being: What is the most probable injury? How much time will a player most likely miss due to it?
Is doc part of the panda eye club?😂
😂
I'm just flabbergasted it wasn't Draymond that threw his body onto Embiids knee
I said to myself “damnit is that draymond” before I clicked the video
😂🤣
I'm a Dubs fan but Draymond did foul 0 seconds into the game on the jump ball haa
Gsw injures players every year but nobody says shit .
That stuff is getting old.
Could you add the link to where you bought that shirt? It’s really nice.
As someone who has had problems with knee injuries I’ve just collided into someone else’s leg and I end up not being able to walk because of the pain
Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation for first 48 hours. Then begin stretching and body weight exercises.
Update please. Further evaluation pending
Your eye alright, doc? You been moonlighting as a bouncer at the Double Deuce?
Damn torn meniscus announced. Gonna do a follow up?
Does Brian talk about and analyse his left eye injury? 😢
Has all the markings of jumpers knee. Hopefully there is no LCL/meniscus instability and it just needs an end of season scope or cleanup.
Embiid's collapse, as he puts weight on his left leg, sure looks like secondary pain in his left patella. I suffered from patellar tendonitis for years and there were many occasions when walking up the stairs I felt like my right leg was about to collapse. Nature's way of reminding me to either avoid the stairs altogether for a while or find a way to give that joint some extra support. I sure hope Joel Embiid take the time he needs to fully recover from whatever his injury/injuries are.
Support your joints with thicker sinew, bigger quads, & denser tibias & femurs; get your squat to 500. Fixed my knees.
It’s called vagitis. It really starts to flare up when he has to play good players/teams on the road
Haha
Well, the current warriors aren't good.
Oh yeah cause leading the league in scoring for 3 straight seasons. Being in the top 5 MVP race for 6 years straight years is just such a normal thing.
He literally has a torn meniscus 🤡
Doc, what's with your eye if I may ask?
His knee rubberbanded back when the warrior guy got up. Seems like he isn’t that flexible
Correct, that’s likely the swelling they’ve been holding him out for.
That knee’s taken so much I’m surprised he’s still able to play on it. :/
I had a patella injury. It's crazy
Crazyyy....fun?
@@shanetaylor761😂 crazy fun good times
where's the patella?
@@dabneyoffermein595Knee cap
@@dabneyoffermein595Is the round bone in your knee.
Embiid’s knees are on a time table tbh. He doesn’t have many years left of being an MVP type player.
his knee is that of a madman, he is so pain tolerant , I love his endurance.
Embiid was limping early in that game. I don’t think he should’ve been playing. I hope he’s not chasing MVP.
It's not just MVP, every award is locked behind that 65 game minimum
Can we talk about how disrespectful it is that NBA fans still slander Embiid and say he ducks games? He got injured vs Pacers, then was out vs Denver and everyone said he ducked, but no one said that when he missed Portland and then was noticeably hobbled in this Warriors game. Now he's hurt (again) because of the 65 game requirement for NBA awards now and his contract incentives and maybe to prove a point to the disrespectful fans out there.
They are saying that he ducks games because he couldn't play in Denver for 4 straight years? They must be foolish...😂
@@ivanstanojevic494 Listen the doc here is giving facts and the rest of yall are giving conjecture 🤷🏽♂️ We dont speak this way about Anthony Davis, KD, Porzingis, or other players who miss long stretches of games. Only Jokic fans are narcissistic enough to think that way.
@@theunderdawg. Horse puckey. Anthony Davis is nicknamed, Street Clothes. You can thank Charles Barkley for coming up with that one. Embiid has been nagged by injury for his entire career. That is what it is. What brings the "hate" is his begging for his MVP award, skipping a lot of road games, stat padding against weak teams, and a total lack of any post season success.
@@406dn7 Being nicknamed "street clothes" is entirely different from being accused of ducking games. Embiid has had dominant games against the best teams in the East, not just weak teams. His "begging" was attributed to him being bluntly honest about being runner up while the media constantly covered Philly and the process drama. It was always blown into way more than what it was. And as for playoff success, Embiid's been unlucky, but I do believe in him eventually get over the hump, the same way Giannis and Jokic had to for awhile. The difference is Giannis and Jokic were relatively under the radar their first years playing in the league whereas Embiid from the get go played in a bigger market with way more pressure that is full of circus show headlines, boneheaded decision making and drama that is difficult to win in unless your name is Lebron. Embiid getting criticized is completely fine just like any other superstar but the narratives about him crying and ducking are complete bullshit when you really look into it and don't just follow NBA crowdspeak.
@@ivanstanojevic494How many games does his team play in Denver every year?
I think Dr. Brian is training to box Dr. Mike.
Doctor Brian needs to make a video about his own eye
Tell me a bout it
@@BrianSuttererMDwhat happened to that eye? Had a fight, or infection etc? Hehe😊
Hyperextension was my guess when I saw it
I really dislike diving for the ball in the NBA. I'm not blaming Kuminga for the hustle. Diving is just an unsafe act in basketball. If no one forces you to the ground, you can go for the ball without diving. I feel the same about unnecessary flopping. Just going to the ground without being aware of other people's body parts is just so unsafe.
It has been reported as a meniscus tear. I have had five of them. He has also had persistent knee problems for quite awhile. He just chose to play on rather than get it fixed. My guess is he already had a meniscus problem and this is an aggravation of that problem. He should not hit the floor again until at least the playoffs. If the 76's get to the playoffs. If that's the case he will be on limited play time. There is no way they beat any of the teams now in front of them. Get well and come back next year.
I know the GS player was going for the ball but as someone who played sports, i think thats an action that you can usually control. Im not sure he needed to fall on his leg.
He’s also an Actourr..
Brother we need an update!!! See Woj or Shams!
AD and Embiid go to the ground too easily and don't know how to disperse the energy onto the right body parts. They either need to take a parkour class haha or try to work on their balance so that they can be fluid to stay up and move away from traumatic collisions
I'm not an Embiid fan, but this does look painful. Hope he makes a full recovery sooner rather than later. And as always, thanks for the explanations even I can understand Doc :)
He torn his meniscus
The swelling he’s reportedly dealing with is more concerning to me than a potential meniscal injury. A stress reaction due to the decreased function of the meniscus from prior surgery is what I’d be most concerned about.
Elaborate ?
@@WittynotSilly Meniscal injuries don’t typically cause swelling. When we see swelling in the knee it’s typically a result of an acute injury to the articular cartilage, degenerative arthritic wear, or a ligamentous injury. Embiid has history of partial meniscectomy which means his meniscus is no longer functioning at 100% which means more stress on the joint surface. This makes me wonder what type of changes he might be experiencing to his joint surface that could be causing his swelling.
they reported a torn meniscus thoough, i dont think it was caused from this... could it have been this or prior incident
This is a very unique knee injury where the injury is caused by the future rather than the current game. For some reason when his travel plans include Denver his knee just swells up.
Lie. Go back 3 seasons and look at the injuries he was already dealing with. Go watch the Pacers game before Denver. He was clearly hurt. Stop spreading the same lame story. It's really not insightful at all.
@@TheTrueAnswer It is all about priorities. Why stay in and play in blow out loss?
Oh wait need to get those 30pts for the record. I know you won't like facts but statistically the games where Embiid is most likely to miss are road games vs teams with better than a .500 record.
I know this is just coincidence in your mind. But see there is this very well known saying "If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it is probably a Duck"
So just call it what it is. Embiid ducking the hard games.
@@puta1082u wanted him to play Jokic injured got it, Portland isn’t an above 500 did he duck them?
@@OneSleeve878it would look more suspicious if he played Portland but not Denver don't u think? U can't make your ducking so obvious right?
Great maturity making fun of a player's injury on a channel dedicated to player through all sports suffering injuries.
Adam Silver must be seething now. 😅
Does he get injured every year?
He is to soft for a big guy.213cm 125kg falling on the floor 5 times every game... That cant be good.
Doc you got a black eye? Who did you fight with?
Shaq says the injury wasn't Embiid's fault but go watch the video a few times, Embiid went down and just gave up trying to fight for the ball and just laid there flat on his back legs completely stretched out not even trying to get them out of the way
Embiid most hated in the NBA
He shouldn't be hated as he's not actively harming ppl, however his foul baiting and faking is basically cheating the game, so yeah, I understand the hate.
I like how everyone just forgot about James Harden 😂People are so quick to jump
@@tyt6877Just shows the amount of people with abysmal emotional intelligence
Going through life assuming everyone will like you is absurd. His behavior, statements and style of play gives plenty of reasons to dislike him. I don't see why anyone outside Philadelphia would care about him, other than a few people here and there that are just basketball fans in general. That is nature of any sport. That goes for any athlete or public figure.
If he foul baited than so did Kobe@@tyt6877
That boy Kuminga did that on PURPOSE AWEHH
He tried getting better ball positioning
No. Whatever it takes for possession. That's the game.
not sure why he needed to land on his left instead to the right whenit looked like he didnt lost his balance, dont think its necessary when u know someone is lying on that side😂
Hope he waits, let’s he’s knee rest/heal before they start thinking surgery.
Who tf wants to spend all that money to go and see backups. 65 isn't even that much to ask for
lilibeth! drop the mic
A lot of guys will never understand the amount of pain 7 footers in the League go through on a day-to-day basis until they've gone through it themselves. And not all 7 footers are created equal. Praying for a speedy recovery for Joel. I know Joel didn't want this to happen, but this might be a blessing in disguise. He'll be fresh come playoff time, but that isn't guaranteed either.
I hope he doesn’t miss much time. Living in the Philly market I get to see all the games and this is the best chemistry I’ve seen when everyone is healthy. Maxey, Harris, Batum, Melton and Embiid with a second unit of Pat Bev, Oubre, Marcus Morris and a couple others they are solid vets that have that gritty edge to them. You’ll see the frustration on the other teams faces as they talk smack all game and play aggressive D.
Bro I just want him healthy for the playoffs. They can get in without Joel for a while but he needs be healthy from that point on.
can we get a fellow sports medicine professional to theorize on how Doc might've gotten that damage under his eye?
maybe a racketball injury?
Ohhhhh noooooo….the knees again.
well embiid did say his need were sore 🤣🤣🤣
Dr. Brian you look very tired in your face, get some rest bro
Bruh why did he just land on him with that kind of force wow
The heat of the moment and he's playing for possession. He's just playing, no malace behind it. Just and unfortunate series of events
Jojo is always falling on the ground as a flop
So for Jo it’s a flop but kuminga diving at him is playing ball. Got it. Loser
This was bound to happen he falls on the ground too much.
🦆Stat padder🤣🤣🤣Karma caught up him
Is your eye okay?
Is it acl
do not talk about the fight club
Doc you under the weather or something...?
Those eye bags are bagging bro are you alright?
I really don't like his flopping antics at all, but I hope he will be ready for the playoffs.
I'm waiting for the Update....Embiid went down again.... Just after a dunk...fck
What happened with that "medical staff" that prevented him from playing previous 2 games? They didn't have a say in this game? Why didn't he pull out from this one too and blame medical staff again. That works.
He sat out his first four seasons or so
Are you that surprised!
He’s made of glass
Ohhhh boy Dude if that was Draymond green
Landing on His knees
Instead...😲 The Results would have
Been horribly bad
Regular season is too long, players don’t wanna play 82 games especially if they know they need to perform on the playoffs. Also guys that size r bound to have knee injuries playing that often in a sport where running and jumping is a basic need
He meniscus was likely injured before this and this exacerbated it.
as a fan of big man rivalry between my guy jokić and embiid, I'm actually bummed to see joel's prime being plagued by injuries. he's a legit mvp player and I was really hoping sixers could go far in playoffs this season, potentially versus nuggets in the finals.
I would love to see what he could be without the flopping and foul hunting, the touch and phantom fouls he gets
@@nenevz2948 won't argue with that point since it's not his fault (nor any other player's for that matter) that the league went limp dick but you can't deny he's a hell of a player
@@mladenovic3584 absolutely. Just as I knew Harden was highly skilled, but hate any player that brings the flop and foul hunt into our beautiful game and despise the refs and NBA “powers” that allow and promote it. Hope Embiid has a long career, just want a realistic whistle for all the players
He came in the league injured so this was a part of his career.
Need more fans like you. I get sick of so called "fans" tearing down one player to prop up a more preferred one. That's not basketball fandom that's just cultism. It makes for shitty sports talk. That shit needs to get clowned on more than any antics Embiid might have.
Next on your YT feed: Joel Embiid analyzes Brian’s black eye . . .
sorry everyone, dr. brian lost his timestone and had not published this video 10 mins before the injury.
Maybe his eyes looked even worse than now
Because of knee soreness already, Embiid was playing this game at only the speed and skill level of a normal seven-footer.
Wreckless dive for the ball then land on his leg by Kuminga
No, it's basketball, Embiid had the ball cleanly stolen from him and Kuminga was going for the ball. There was no foul called.
I wouldn't necessarily call this particular play reckless. But it definitely sucked in terms of the outcome for Embiid. In order to get control of the ball properly from his position, he kind of had to angle his body so that he can cradle the ball much like a football player would when they're trying to make sure they're not fumbling. This amount of contact on the leg/knee, most people would just be able to shrug off. Unfortunately, Embiid isn't the type who can shrug it off given his history of the injuries. Also if we're talking about reckless dives, there was a play earlier where Embiid definitely was reckless diving towards draymond lol. The play earlier where Beverley inadvertantly pushed Kuminga from behind while Kuminga was clearly ahead going up for the basket could have ended horrifically much like the way it did for Klay Thompson. But, because the injury didn't happen, its all smiles.. for now. The bigger concern really was... why the heck was he even playing?? His legs were buckling on their own. No fan nor team staff wants their star player to play with such major issues there...
Looks like Huberman didn't like the doc's video.
you don't need your butt to lie down the floor when you see a player's leg was already there unless you intend to do it
His peak is THIS year.
Rest him a bit before the playoffs. It’s a shame.
well its been shown that hes worse in the playoffs significantly because he doesnt get calls in the postseason. basically the same as harden
@@LordBurger He’s hurt my guy. Hes always banged up. The calls mean nothing.
@@Syndrum Not true every postseason he chokes injured or not
they absolutely do matter, the league is trying to protect him clearly. he avgs more FTA's a game than SHAQ. you know the player that was intentionally fouled almost every time he got the ball? and he doesnt even live in the pain as much as shaq. look up jxmy highrollers recent analysis on it. its eye opening.@@Syndrum
he wanted MVP, but now thats not happening and he should prioritize rest
Somehow, Draymond must have been responsible...Also, how about an injury report on you, doc. Looks like you've got a shinerunder your left eye?????
In layman's terms: he got kummed on
Do u think the players that get hurt watch these videos of themselves
bro started limping inside the womb
With all respect, but you only guess. Also you forget that the ground is hard, and a NBA players aint light. So even if everything looks not so bad. That weight can cause bad injurys. 😉
