Maxey was fouled but unlike Hartenstein and DiVincenzo the Knicks kept playing not waiting for the refs to decide the game. You gotta keep the fight and not rely on the zebras especially when you are the away team. Nurse hedged his bets on the refs to call a foul and waited till the ball was in an open game state to call his timeout.

Does Philadelphia win this game if they had HCA?
Does Embiid grab the rebound if he was healthy instead of Hartenstein clearly out jumping him and doing his best Chris Bosh impression?

Maxey could’ve been called for a foul on the inbound when he pushed off Hart too. You even see Hart waiting for the whistle when Maxey fell to the floor. Refs let them play. If you see Maxey the rest of the play, he stayed on the ground while Divo was shooting the 1st and 2nd shot. Didn’t even bother going out to defend

^ i’m glad you brought that up, injured or not but embiid not boxing out ihart and letting him get an easy rebound is pathetic.

lots of reason why sixers should be mad at their team
LOL Y U MAD THO?

Nurse really pump faked a TO call, never seen that before lmao, he literally jerked his hands back when he thought the ball was finally inbounded. He never called it and then the 2nd time was too late Maxey had already fumbled it away wow, just unreal sequence.

Also, the way the refs let a bunch of contact go, Lowry running over Brunson and doing his typical land on legs routine after the ball was loose in his 'accidental' way. Maxey pushing Hart off some, Brunson hooking the jersey a bit but they let them play it out. Any one of those could have been called.

Brunson bounce after a hellish night, Knicks rebounding more chances, blocking go ahead drive with seconds left, clutch FTs, game tying 3 at the buzzer rims out. This game had it all but my ISP dropped at 100-96 with 1:09 left and didn't come back until it was over.

This series aint over though, still a long way to go.

does Philly win the game if Batum stayed with DiVincenzo instead of standing back being a spectator?

I dont even care if the game was officiated poorly or not. failure to guard the 3 point line when you're up by 2 is a good enough reason for a team to deserve to lose

I'd love to hear Nurse defending the non timeout call instead of bitching about the refs not giving him the thing he didn't do.

Really think the league should humble mr nurse and give them a nice 48 minute report of all the absolute garbage Lowry and Embiid get called for them. All their piss poor flopping, phantom fouls, offensive fouls uncalled. I mean what on earth was that challenge on the Lowry foul on divo? How do they win that? Just garbage.

Like Embiid has said to nurse in the past “respectfully, stop bitching about the calls”. You guys have your two best players out there having big games. Why are the games close to begin with? You’re supposed to be the better team and yall wanted to play us and after every game yall say you figured something out to put us away. So what’s happening? Why are the games close?

Timeout clear as day. Indisputable... Maxey has full. Possession Nurse is fully signaling.

No matter what angle you show it Nurse was hesitating to call the timeout when they were inbounding then the ball was lose/not in possession for more than a second when he was trying to call it for real. Stop blaming a horrible collapse on the refs. Also, you know a team wasn’t really jobbed when fans start posting images of ticky tac things like grabbing or steps.

Posting a single frame where the ball is in Maxeys hand while nurse signals a TO is so disingenuous.

If you look at that exact clip in real time you’ll see nurse FINALLY calling for a TO for real and a split second later the ball is already loose and out of maxeys hands. He could’ve called time out after Brunson hit the 3, he could’ve called time out any time prior to Maxey loosing the ball but instead he put his hands down.

Nurse has a long long history of complaining about refs but now he has some of the leagues worst foul baiters and floppers on his team. Suck it up a little bit.

Now let’s watch all the replays of Philly doing this to Knicks players the first 2 games of the series, while not getting called for ****.

Can’t wait to for the Knicks to take out their heart in Philly, so their fans can go back to eating horse manure.

bro yall need to chill out. you want me to get screenshots of what lowry is doing all game?

elbows and arms being locked up during missed shots, so peopel cant go for rebounds, holding jersey, all this **** is part of the game and both teams do it.

stop whining you little sissys. yea if nurse called time there okay, missed call happens. besides nurse should have called time after brunsons three. but he didnt know maxey and inbounder cant handle an inboundpass under pressure... file a grievance and move on. embiid is getting phantom calls every game. shut up and play and stop acting soft like little bitches
im bout dat action boss
