That offensive foul on Embiid was bogus, Gallinari doing what he does best flopping. But Embiid took the bait with the little bump after. Philly can't afford to lose Embiid, he's everything for them.

They resurrected the center position.

Crazy how they both lapped KAT who had more hype than them.

Remember the GM survey where KAT was the #1 answer to which player would you build around?

It seemed perfectly reasonable at the time.

Crazy.

Philly threw their best punch and only a 2 point game at home. Not good

Atlanta got so many weapons, Huerter turning into a stud. I remember how much I liked him back in Maryland, he kind of took some time to come into his role but man is he stepping up in these playoffs

Not a good look for Philly, the one seed, that they weren't able to step on ATL's neck after going up big in the 1st quarter...

We might be watching the rapid death of a certain style of basketball...
