How tall is Brunson? No way he’s actually 6’2

Brunson has 13 FTAs
Embiid has 11 FTAs
And people only notice Embiid’s.

A Celtic fan saying he has been turned against the sixers. Give me a break. Disliking us is meant to be in your blood.

Yeah I pretty much hate the whole city :lol:

I thought they changed the rules on that whole "offensive player stops right in front of a defender" foul.

Man you have to be most pessimistic Knicks fan I ever encounter :lol:

The best part was him complaining about embiid getting the whistle when Brunson had the same number of FTAs.

Blindly looking at FTAs is a very rudimentary way to look at it.

I look at the actual calls and how legit they are depending on the contact and everything and half the times they show the replay with Embiid there has been literally no contact. Man took a turnaround fadeway with no contact and they called a foul lol

Where as with Brunson majority of the time you can see a lot of contact and see why they called the foul.

Some media called Maxey a superstar after one game. Just stop it. Living in the moment way too much. There’s only like 7 superstars in the nba. Maxey couldn’t carry a team in the regular season
