Well, I mean, it's moot if Josh hits his god damn free throw.

Mitch is a bonehead but Josh Hart also missed a crucial FT at the end of regulation.

This was one of the biggest choke jobs in NYK history. Especially in an elimination game on your own court, up 7 with 50 secs to play.

The defense from Mitch at the end was reckless. Maxey getting the benefit of the doubt.

Btw why does the ball even go to Hart there

Every other team has their best guy always getting the ball … of course not us and maybe we actually don’t have any good FT shooters lol

That play where Embiid threw it over the backboard was not a foul … did Thibs not have any challenges left?

This is on his balding head

I turned off the TV after the Deuce make. Went upstairs to play with the baby. Only went to look at the box score to see the final numbers and it was 97-97

Basketball gods punishing me when they should be punishing PHI for being so soft in an elimination game.

That kid Maxey the only one who wouldn’t go away and PHI is lucky he’s built like that

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.


Waiting till it's panic time to actually go small and more than likely REFUSING to adjust in real time is Thibs biggest fault. This is why the fans are divided on him.

I want to see OG be more aggressive and have more shot opportunities. I know these other guys cant cut it.

BTW that pass by Brunson to Hartenstein... why not fcking talk to him. Brunson wanted to bait Batum to jumping and then blow by him with an iHart pass. Just tell him to stay home

Stupid stupid play.

Garbage title. You should be ashamed. Did you watch Mitch and Embiid?

Don't need to point to particular player(s), this was a team loss.

But we will re-group and win the next game.

Let's be honest Sixers now have all the momentum going into game 6. Embid still bullying and hurting the knicks.

Are we really going to let iHart walk and keep Mitchell Robinson? We won’t win crap with Mitch as our main center.

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


So all the other mistakes are fine but Mitch's is the reason why? FOH agenda BS
If you'd rather see your team fail so you can be right
...you are a fan of your opinion not the team.

Hartenstein has been bad this entire series... Yet you don't give some of those minutes to Precious??? The man just showed you 2 games in a row that he's a difference maker. What the hell is going on here?!

Go record another podcast Hart and Brunson… you’ll have plenty of time as Philly strolls into the next round of this wide open East. A West team is gonna win the finals anyway so it’s all moot.
