I will say it again. Embiid has elbowed 3 Raps in the face. Barreled over people in the paint. Put 2 players in the infirmary and not a fou and they are calling ticky tack fouls on Boucher and FVV.

This is reminiscent of Nets and Bucks fans bickering last year over Kyrie's injury when he accidentally landed on Giannis foot.

Because of Embiid's problems with his legs(foot early on, and later knee) he actually had trainers work with him over the years to fall down more in order to avoid putting all of his weight on one leg on a bad/awkward landing.
nice..if it was tennis and he was alone on the court

Yea. I'm sure that was 'intentional'... what kind bull**** is that?
Embiid isn't looking at Barnes foot at all. You think Embiid is going to risk injuring *HIS OWN FOOT*. 70%/80% of the time when an injury occurs when someone steps on someone else's foot its the guy who STEPPED ON IT who turns their ankle and not the other way around.
...it was a dirty play potentially throwing 300 lbs onto his ankle.
Dirty plain and simple. If he's doing that **** I hope karma bites him in the ass.
You want to pretend it wasn't a dirty play..cool story bro.

Same. Can a rolled ankle be lingering though? I'd assume it's not like those knee injuries but I could be wrong.
If it's just a rolled ankle.
Honestly that looked like he broke his ankle or his foot.
Googled broken ankle. Jesus christ, I really hope not. That looks horrific.

I knew Maxey was good, but did not expect him to play this well in the playoffs.
He could be an All Star as soon as next year.

Especially if Barnes is out. We might get 1, but it looks like either a sweep or up to game 5.
Philly looks ready.
We blew Philly out in game 1 of 2019.
With Barnes out no chance, but with Barnes I still think this is a longer series

Hate to see injures, especially within the flow of the game.
Hope everyone is okay and healthy going forward. I expected it to be a series with a couple blow-out games.
Im happy for Tyrese. Hes definitely proving me wrong with this performance against the "big line up", in a playoff game no less. Let's see what happens.

Sweep! Nick Nurse got out coached. He tried to use the Brooklyn strategy of fouling heavily and it failed.

The Mavs missed the playoffs without Brunson.

Stop it man. It wasn’t dirty.
Embiid plays like he has no regard for anyone else on the court and is reckless, but that wasn’t dirty.

LOL not the same thing.
Giannis undercut him when he was in the air. Embiid just stepped on him after he ran up quickly.

Tough, of course. But the number of people who give up the second there is any trouble is kinda sad

This is a punk move by the Sixers and Doc leaving Maxey in.

It’s okay I still think raptors win the series considering that Embiid will eventually tear his ACL

This Philly crowd is cheering for Tyrese Maxey like he's some MVP
The Greatest of All Time debate in basketball is essentially who has the greatest basketball resume of the player who has the best highlights instead of who is the best player
