I am so sick of these refs giving Embiid every call.. did they all have a meeting and decide to gift him calls? I don't get it man.

Its a small thing but it bugs me how quickly Embiid starts walking to the free throw line after a foul.

Good businessmen methinks. If Sixers win, it’s a win-win for them

In this series? It's hard to say. They seem to get different contributions from game to game.

How In the fking hell can Embiid get the ball and he literally just throws his arms forward and they just give him a foul call. FK that. That’s absolute bs I’ve ever seen in my life

Has Embiid ever touched the ball and not gotten a whistle?

Knicks literally need him to create, he's been decent at it the last 2 games, he's been getting nice middys going.


I'm not hating, trust me I love OG, but he's never had a good handle, creativity off the hop & struggles with his coordination that makes him easier to guard and a lot of times he turns the ball over when he either becomes predictable or lacks the creativity to get himself out of bad positions.

He's just been such a huge factor on the boards and defensively.

Yes, this is all effort for the Knicks. Philadelphia has to clean that up to complete this comeback…

Thrilling stuff on both ends.

A comical 25 combined offensive rebounds so far on both ends. 25!!

I'm starting to think Hartenstein is more valuable than Robinson.

Knicks fans are entitled to feel miffed about the officiating so far.


Are you talking about when Robinson flopped before contact?


Yeah I admit Robinson put Mayo on that, seen many similar calls go against Porzingis this season.

Anyhow, feel like the Knicks are really missing Randle tonight, they are struggling getting any kind of offence in the paint right now. Hartenstein is really struggling right now.

Embiid really loves that euro elbow step.
