00:00Embiid, at the end of Game 7, is hobbling around.
00:03He can barely walk, and he's still out there.
00:07And that's a guy who has a history of not playing games.
00:11And not as a hard-o, because the game wasn't really put away yet.
00:15He stayed out there, and that's the image that you're left with.
00:22You made Joel Embiid look like the true warrior out of those two teams.
00:29Not just Jason Tatum, but the whole warrior mentality that Joe Missoula likes to put out there.
00:36And these guys are tough, and we're going to fight.
00:39Now, that guy is Joel Embiid.
00:42He's the one who came into this series, turned it around, and stayed out on the court.
00:49Just as hurt and feeling as bad, if not worse, than Jason Tatum did when he showed up on Saturday
00:56afternoon
00:57and said, ah, oh, I don't know.
01:00I don't know.
01:01My knee is stiff.
01:03Oh, is it?
01:05How about you keep your mouth shut and go play Game 7?
01:08There's an idea.
01:10Don't bring it up.
01:12It's Game 7.
01:15And at that point, you didn't know that the Pistons were going to end up coming back and winning
01:23and still being there to get over it.
01:26But I still like their chances.
01:28I like just about anyone's chances.
01:30The Pistons, as we've talked about, Fred, they're really good.
01:33They're not quite ready yet.
01:35They don't have enough.
01:36Well, Tobias Harris needed to score 30 points.
01:38I mean, they don't have any scoring outside of any reasonable scoring outside of Cunningham,
01:44and it needs to be Tobias Harris, and Tobias Harris isn't a star.
01:49You've got the path laid out for you, much like they did when they won the championship
01:53a couple of years ago, and they took full advantage of it, of what was happening to the teams in
01:58the West,
01:58and they went and they won it.
01:59Now you've got it laid out for you in the East, and what do you do?
02:04Your best player doesn't play Game 7, and this is what is going to get a lot of discussion today.
02:12It already has yesterday.
02:14Whose decision was it, and why did they make that decision?
02:19And we'll get into that.
02:20But the decision was made for a guy who we were told Joe Mazzula said on Friday he's going to
02:28play tomorrow.
02:30Of course he is.
02:31He's not injured.
02:32Everybody gets a little banged up, but he's not injured, and he's going to play tomorrow.
02:38It goes from that to, no, Tatum is not going to play.
02:41And here's an interesting wrinkle.
02:44To start the game, which they've had poor starts in Games 5 and 6,
02:51the Celtics decide to roll out, along with Jalen Brown and Derek White,
02:55Ron Harper Jr., Baylor Shireman, and Luka Garza.
03:06I'll see y'all next question.
03:12I'll see you then.
