i have to chose between the Raps TV or Sixers TV for replay.
I choose the Raps to know what their thoughts are..
One thing striked me.. they show the difference in free throws i first 3 games and the 2 games after that.
I will post the screenshot later but it looked like..
Raps 17ft per game to 24ft per game +7fts
Sixers 28ft per game to 22ft per game -6fts
Embiid from 11ft pergame to 8ft per game
Siakam something to something.
Huge uptick in freethrow.
Raps tv guys also said that ever since Nurse called out the refs in g1-2 they admit that the calls have been favoring them.
Embiid’s thumb revelation was on game 4
G4 embiid complained about the calls
G5 the team played weird. They just jack up open 3s, as if they want to tell the league that they’re not going to play aggressive on both ends if Raps are getting calls favoring them
G6 sixers got 23 FTs vs Raps 25. Like G3, its shooting that won us the game
I do think Sixers is frustrated with the calls and the league wants the Sixers to win games with not relying on them. Yes, as a fan I do to. But without the calls, it allows the gap of a less talented team like the Raps to be closer. And what happens when we face the elite teams like Celts or Bucks?
Admittedly this could just be my conspiracy theory. But I do think all the “injury” and “lethargic play” is our way of telling the league to stop “fixing” their calls to minimize the difference in number of fouls called between teams
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.
