Come on dude, stop being a homer, they showed like 5 replays, he fell on his own.

Embiid out of control, Embiid falls down, Embiid gets a foul call.

Considering what bs they call on Trae(most of those should actually be offensive fouls on him) I'm ok with couple bs calls other way

Embiid is a foul baiter and flopper. He plays a bush league brand of basketball. I will be satisfied when he's bounced. Sixers are loaded though. Size, athleticism, 2 way players.

Doc playing with fire with how he plays Embid. Every play I cringe because I feel like he's about to get hurt

Has Steve Javie ever disagreed with the call on the floor

I’m neutral (Celtic fan).

Even the review agrees.

I agree it’s soft for a playoff game but once it goes to review, you can’t overturn it

The issue is that if that’s a foul, every single trip down the floor is a foul

Embiid knew he was gonna dive before the contact. He was leaning forward pretending to drive. Entitled puss.

As I thought, not sure how you reverse when there was clearly contact

That is true, but you can also say that about most of foul calls Trae got on the other end.

Hawks bench is really bad outside of Gallo. Lou is washed and Huerter had a great game 2 but hes not that player normally. Okongwu will be good in the future but he has no relevant Nba experience right now. Snell isnt a good player. Solomon Hill is also ass and only starting b/c Hunter is hurt.

Hawks have a terrific starting lineup but that bench needs work.

Simmons has been fantastic tonight, the real difference maker
