That dunk was about all he did tonight. Damn if anyone else along with Huerter gave Trae some help we could have won.

Well, Gallo had 16pts on 10 shots and played quite well but I hear what you're saying. With Embiid playing terrible and non-Tobias/Curry shooters being miserable, this was a very steal-able game. You all kept getting pretty good looks and couldn't hit, both in the 3rd quarter (when we went on that run) and then in the middle of the 4th when both teams went cold. I kept worrying that your shooters would shake it off at some pt and end our season, but it ended up all falling on Trae and we got just enough from the peanut gallery to get the win.

Also even without the offensive foul this play just seems like it's all Trae. Trae put the ball in the right spot for the flush and also got Embiid just far enough towards him that he couldn't contest despite his size. I think jumping high is as cool as everyone else, but Collins basically just jumped up and flung himself into Embiid on the way down.

nobody gets to call that an offensive foul if they cheered for this dunk
