This is a series momentum switching game, not good..

Either they come out Game 6 and kill the Sixers, or the Sixers continue to build hope.

Allowing them a 3pt opportunity for OT instead of putting them at the line for 2 was the reason for this loss.

That's a coaching call.


Yep!

If we had fouled, Maxy could have made 2 and not the 3. That did it!

Mitch played embiid as well as anyone can possibly play him but that bonehead foul and non contest on maxey threes was disgusting. I'm a big Mitch guy and I'm thoroughly disgusted

This series is over. Momentum has swung the other way completely. You took a lifeless team and gave them life again.

On Mitchel Robinson 110%. Josh Hart missing free throws? Tom Thibodeau

Nah this game was OVER, and gave SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much hope to the Sixers and Philly.

The basketball gods giveth, basket ball gods taketh.

Could’ve been a great win and won the series in 5.
Get rest. But NOPE

Handed the Sixers the win.

Hope the Knicks learned here how crucial mistakes are

I don’t think ANYONE had the Sixers winning with 30 seconds left

Absolutely catastrophic

Enjoy this you Sixers ****

No he gave up one of the most idiotic 4 point plays I’ve ever seen when you should never be jumping at the shooter in that scenario and then 1-2 at the line would have been enough to seal it


you're 7ft. why in the hell are you jumping??? Then on the last play he's playing drop coverage when he knows they need a 3 to seal it.


This right here... I would've put in a smaller line up but having Mitch out there after a sprained ankle for basically the whole 2nd half was ridiculous

I don't agree. Mitch was creating a ton of Joel turnovers. But those were 2 very bone head plays from him with under a minute. Very, very disappointed.

This one is on Jalen. You watch Deuce give us a boost, and OG is automatic with the midrange, but you don't find either guy in the OT? Oh, and when the f*ck is Donte gonna be allowed to come out an play again?! Dude's psyche has him on permanent punishment.

Brunson made some really bad plays down the stretch in OT but it never should have come to that

That's why I blame thibs. Up 6 you don't need size you just need to switch everything so maxey doesn't get a clear look.

Thibs just doesn't make the necessary move

Thibs needs to pull Donte aside and threaten starting Burks over him if he don’t step it up.

I'm more pissed about the OT than anything else.
