Less contact on that play than the AD foul on Jokic that got overturned last night. But one guy flopped and got rewarded for it.

Harris so useless he can't even catch balls. The biggest fraud in NBA.

The 2-7 series have been incredibly fun, competitive, and frustratingly short at the same time.

I foresee a similar ending to last night.

Wow.. protecting Embiid AGAIN on a foul he committed, thats the 3rd one they called on another Sixer that was on Embiid.

I wish they'd leave the 'bullrush' technique for the defensive lines in football. - It looks stupid in the NBA

it's worse, he's content to swing it to the corner to Oubre, who swings it to Maxey, who passes up the shot for a 67 year old Lowry who takes a contested 3 from the top of the key and immedietly sticks his leg out cuz he knows the only chance they're getting points would him flopping and getting the call

that's how bad the Embiid centered offense is
you can't center your offense around a low i.q, low motor player..when will the 76ers learn that?


I'm just real surprised and disappointed that someone so physically dominant like Embiid (especially vs this smaller NY team) spends so much time camped out in the perimeter even often a foot or more behind the 3 pt line.


Robinson nor Hartstein are small. And OG is a very strong SF who's guarded him effectively. Yes their guards are small. Not the rest of the lineup.


They're missing Randle at PF and quite frankly Embiid has about 40 lbs on both NYs Centers. He should be manhandling anyone 1 on 1 when he isn't doubled.

Embiid already gassed and now Knicks getting offensive rebounds. Not a coincidence.
