Here in europe the downside for me with the Knicks--especially in the playoffs--is that on nights the Knicks play I can barely sleep....like I wake up every 60 minutes until the morning where I watch the games on replay. Is like my unconscious wants to watch the game. Luckily I took a couple months off from work so I can enjoy everything but I'm tired as *** as of right now.
Nothing that a good night masturbation wouldn't fix. What do you think I do when I go to sleep, knowing that when I wake up, the game will wait on me on ILP?
Also, Philly can go play with wild elephants. Embiid should have been thrown out with 2 technicals, instead the refs gifted him a free pass after the Josh shove. Then they cry.
During my study days in the 2000s I used to watch knick games live from 1.30 to 4 am ----I think some of that conditioning always remained with me.
As for foul calls---I really didn't see anything outrageous at all. The game was called pretty evenly IMO. I mean Embiid and Maxey combined for 20!!!! 3point-attempts---how do you expect to get foul calls when close to 50% of the shots between your superstars are 3s. And no one else on that Sixer squad is worthy of getting any foul shots. Batum, Hield, Lowry only shoot 3s or long 2s.
The Sixers should thank basketball gods that Randle is out. With Randle this series would have resulted in a sweep and everybody knows it as well. The only reason they have a chance to pull it out is because the Knicks are missing 25points/10rebounds/5assists. Randle would have completely smoked Harris, Batum etc. Instead they bitch about not getting a timeout. SMH.
