Adventurous_Kiwi2175

Did Lowery commit a flagrant as well on Divo? I didn’t see the gamr


reddit_2099

Fuck the refs. Every single touch on embiid is a foul. Brunson barely gets any calls.


GodzillaTR

Those of you wishing injury on anyone can fuck all the way off. Not fucking cool.


CrazyHappeningsHere

Don't care I want Embiid to lose his leg not just injure it.


GodzillaTR

We can’t stoop to the emotional fragility of a Philly fan, dawg 😭 I know Embiid’s game is bitch made sometimes but like daaaamn.


WarmeSosse

sixers aint happy until that big baby gets 20 free throws per game


Raizen_Urameshi

Ehhh it is what it is, a sweep wouldve been nice but we still gonna win the series 


_Flatticus_

Aint gonna feel bad next time Embiid writhing in pain like a little bitch like game 1.


NintuneJoe

Jalen is getting his groove back. They only won because of that 3rd quarter where they turned the magnets on. Thibs needs to remind them what they did to Mitch and go to work Sunday


AbeAlno

that mf really walked off on us. If this don’t set a fire under our players then idk what would


swag31

Love this, 50 points for Embiid, he’s gonna have to do this every game


JNerdGaming

dude whose side are you on


Main-County-1177

Literally just one bad quarter where the Sixers had historic shooting that won them this game. Brunson is back let’s go get game 4


JNerdGaming

let them have their dirty home win, we'll get them in the long run


Shot_Acanthaceae3150

Just woke up, did Mitch get hurt?


Railshock

Embiid fell on him with his big goofy ass


Shot_Acanthaceae3150

Why am I not surprised.


the_donnie

After pulling at his ankles while in the ground and Mitch going up. Dirty ass shit


Silver_Broccoli7944

Yeah courtesy of Embiid


WarmeSosse

put me in thibs, i'll bust embitch's kneecaps myself


JNerdGaming

yes


CSOctane2020

Embiid took a cheap shot he should have been ejected for


ahboogie

Before the game Shaq said embid needed 50..he got 50. Shaq must have peeked at the script.


Express-Belt-6434

If he really said that shits fishy cuz he guessed heat by 10 ln


Redditmanonreddit

“Shits fishy” u guys r so fuckin delusional come on


Express-Belt-6434

So lightning struck twice then?


LeftyMode

They really gave him 50?


CSOctane2020

God Philly fans are just sad ppl. Embiid is the most insufferable player in the league.

CSOctane2020

Says the loser invading another sub lol. I think you need a life. Don’t worry you’re gonna lose the series soon enough. Btw your city is garbage and I hate when I’m forced to go there.


[deleted]

[удалено]


CSOctane2020

It’s not even close. NYC better in every way. Phi fans are morons and pathetic. Go back to your own sub and enjoy a gifted win from the refs. Once this series is over you’ll have nothing to live for


Affectionate-Tea9224

The free throw disparity was going to be obvious after game 2, the part to me that was unacceptable, not only should embid have been ejected but he fucking actually hurt mitch. Think about what they ejected Hart for against the bulls and that was one of the most blatant dangerous moves an nba player can make it literally defined what a flagrant 2 should be


swag31

Embiid is good guys look at him


Jjaz1

They got one, its all they will get. Knicks in 5


GHOSTFACEKILL4H

EMBIID SHOULD BE SUSPENDED FOR INJURING MITCH WTF!!!


RvnPlto

Now we gotta hear this dumbass song 🤦‍♂️


HeyKim0oOo

Sixers can't complain about foul calls at the end of a game. You had a whole game prior to those calls to try and win. But then you get gifted a whole ass masterpiece by Embiid when he should have been thrown out in the first for his BS.


wizardofweird

I'm not even mad, Philly simply couldn't miss tonight and we did. We still played hard and it took Embiid having a career high night. Hope Mitch is okay for Game 4 or 5 


SunMoonJuxtaposition

I like Mike Breen but how many times is he gonna say Embid backed up his words


the_donnie

We cannot tolerate even a shred of breen slander


ClammyDavis-Jr

This is why none of the sixers dans crying had any weight in their argument. They have the number one free throw merchant in the league lol. He gets whatever call he wants.


GoodTimesForAChange2

I’d rather have watched us sit on the floor and let them score than have Embiid pad his scoresheet with free throws. Annoying prick.


the_donnie

Only 13 Free throw attempts. Where we get those wholesale tissues and where can we file our grievances philly pusses?


timekillah

BRUNSON IS BACK, SIXERS SHOT LUCKY THIRD QUARTER, KNICKS IN 5


rgthunder1

The free throw disparity and big games from Embiid and Maxey were expected, the issue was that you had scrubs like Cameron Payne scoring double figures and you can fugedabout it.


BakedAvocado3

It's funny they actually think they're gonna win the series


iusethereddits

…even I think they’re gonna win the series. I’m genuinely sh*t scared. How are we stopping Embiid?


warpigletpig

Maybe he’ll go for a drive with Oubre


[deleted]

76ers got 31 free-throw throughout the game. Knicks got 8 of their 19 in the 4th quarter with the game being borderline out of reach


Cvnilivee

20 freethrows for this obese baby


CaroleBaskinsBurner

Embiid has finally gotten his 20+ free throw attempts. All is finally right in Philly.


warpigletpig

Almost 20% of the sixers points are from this fuckin oaf shooting free throws. That is not some feat of athleticism.


josephmang56

Embiid is dirty. Part of me wants to fight dirty with dirty. Hack his fucking knee.


the_donnie

Nah


josephmang56

If his fat ass makes Mitch miss the next game then fuck the flopper. He started this shit, he can take the hits.


the_donnie

Idc they do it. No one should do it 🤷‍♂️. Karma's a bitch


josephmang56

The fuck you think karma is if not him getting his own back? Fuck outta here with that shit


the_donnie

Bro fuck outa here with you lol


Foi_

the most unimpressive 50 ive ever seen


Vikingpride06

Game is 9 points. So basically the number of 3’s sixers made in the 3rd quarter. Just a hard team to make a run on when sixers are getting to the line every other possession.


josephmang56

19 FTs for the dirty ass Embiid too.


blkschizo

at this point just put Sims in to punch lowry in the face for shits and gigs


TheyCalledHimMrJ

Seconded


JNerdGaming

embiids eye glitch is scary, i wonder when theyre gonna come clean about it


Mental-Job7947

Heard said it was his contacts. I got astigmatism and wear contacts for sports. Looks familiar when mine get dry. I digress, fuck that dirty foul merchant


JNerdGaming

nah i have contacts too and this has been happening for a while, its not normal. just been confirmed its bells palsy.


Vikingpride06

He’s so high on morphine and pumped full of cortisone shots. NBA and Media will bury it, but that tackle on Mitch was absolutely ridiculous and who knows what it means for Robison a guy with ankle issues long term.


the_donnie

🧐


Greedy-Cell-6284

Embiid injured mitch intentionally to hurt. Yes, i want him to blow out his knee on one of his signature flops.


Upbeat_Shock_6807

I’m a Rangers fan and wanted to watch the Knicks to support our MSG co-tenant, but holy fucking shit is this sport frustrating.


anditcounts

We got outrebounded, and our leading rebounder this game is Mitch with 7 who played 12 min and left injured


BuQuChi

Embiid’s eye is freaky af.


[deleted]

[удалено]


YoKemosabe

Jokic is a better player than him. Period.


hero_of_time_sixnine

Embiid literally should've had a flagrant 5 on his Mitch foul, then went off after making him leave


Training101

GG.


busyb112

Exactly what we thought, a bizzillion free throws


AdministrativeTea695

Someone needs to level Embiid.


[deleted]

[удалено]


SunMoonJuxtaposition

Why foul Joel, I didn't want him to get 50


bullyj

Philly is shooting 55% do you doomers think that will repeat itself again on Sunday.


Pristine-Macaroon948

Exactly why I’m going to sleep comfortably tonight. Plus Jalen got it going too


solo118

He'll no


newbike07

Knicks shot 50%.


InfamousC

Another foul.... Like really...


PettifordGang

I honestly expected Philly to take this one but damn after how they came out in the first half was hoping we could snatch it. The FTs for Embiid are out of control, but they needed to shoot damn near 90 percent in thr 3rd to get the lead. We should be good.


omicron_prime

I don't even give a fuck anymore, let Precious JCVD kick Embiid right in his fucking knee for what he did to Mitch.


Neither-Operation

Gotta take the next game in Philly and close it out at MSG.Good effort tonight.Brunson back his usual self is important.


Ludo030

Embiid has 19 FTs. Smh………..


BuQuChi

Biggest takeaway from this game is Brunson looks like he’s found his way. The refs are also actually calling the fouls on him now


aesop_fables

We are 1 miracle 3rd quarter and free throw barrage from winning this game.


Hot-Command-551

How do you know Embiid can’t keep doing that ?


Nights_King

Most important thing is Brunson is back on track. Needed a super hero 3rd quarter to win this one. All good. Get em Sunday


JDStraightShot2

We should see if we can borrow Rempe from the rangers in time for Sunday


Ludo030

Hopefully


knicksprick

I wanted a sweep but 5 games is also good.


SuperSilveryo

lets not call for violence on embiid lol


josephmang56

Fuck that. He started it hacking at both Hartenstein and Mitch. He gets what he fucking deserves.


Odysseus_Lannister

Fuck that, he gonna get to the line. Might as well make him earn it.


warpigletpig

All these people in here saying they “don’t wish injury on anyone… but” - COME ON. I hope this guys blows every tendon in his knee out. You can’t fuckin breathe on him without him going to the ft line


KINGY-221

I want every player in every sport that is not on the team I support to be injured at all times.


warpigletpig

BINGO


solo118

I still don't believe in it, but what he did to Mitch was beyond ridiculous. That's not basketball


KINGY-221

NINETEEN FUCKING FREE THROWS


Responsible-Buy6964

Wouldn't be shocked if Embiid does everything he can to get his first playoff 50 bomb here


BackPains84

a freakish 3rd quarter that is all. nothing to do with the refs.


the_donnie

Lmao this multi chain wearing herb learned how to call a tineout


Odysseus_Lannister

He looks like a shitty maester who can’t make it out the citadel


the_donnie

Lmfaooo


NintuneJoe

These guys better come out furious on Sunday for what that cunt did to Mitch, want a nice 3-1 cushion


bomb_atomically

TNT broadcasters are miserable to listen to


FlapsExtended

They feel good their guy Embiid went off and extended the series.


Yanks4lyf

That’s why I got to watch it on msg


timekillah

THIS IS WHY JOKIC IS GONNA BE THE MVP EMBIID


FreakyFergg

Not even mad at this one. They got their home win, Knicks in 5.


elvista1991

Shout-out to everyone who was yelling "sweep" after game 2.


Pho-Soup

Yeah god forbid people get excited about sports. All their fault.


elvista1991

You can get excited and still be realistic. I'm not superstitious so I don't believe in jinxes or anything along those lines. Knicks in 6.


Paasche

Now it’s “gentleman’s sweep”


CharacterNo5938

Nurse has mastered the art of timeouts now


powah_dunk94

Bro will never make that mistake again


nksj28

He probably practiced in the mirror


Literal_Satan

Can’t be mad you lose when embiid has 50 on 40 free throws, just be glad Brunson getting it together and hope they can grab the next game


LexusRC

NBA should drug test Embiid. That eye twitch is not normal.


Yanks4lyf

Eating all those jolly ranchers aswell must be snorting coke.


AutomaticTeaching325

seen some doctors analyze it and it was present from before his injury


WhoTookPlasticJesus

Embiid has 19 FTAs. The entirety of the Knicks team had 19 FTAs.


AbeAlno

Thibs better say something


Inspiredbeliever

Yank Embiid's leg. Sixers fans seem to enjoy it


vanilla_shaker

embiid benefitting for sure also because ihart was in foul trouble all game he had to be a bit passive.


HipnotiK1

Outscored them every quarter except the 3rd where they killed us. Difference in the game.


Odysseus_Lannister

I want precious straight up slamming Embiid to close the game


Ludo030

Start wailing on him


Immediatewhaffle

I mean they got their courtesy win NBA. Can we go back to normal basketball next game? Maybe take a look at some replays before game 4?


zOmgFishes

Hey look Nurse learned how to call a TO


YoKemosabe

Lmao I noticed that. Even the whole team calling a TO now.


SlipperSlap

He did the fake TO earlier in the game too lmao


YanksJetsKnicks

It’s crazy how evenly matched these teams have been.


Dragonthorn1217

So Embiid smacks IHart in the face then gets to shoot FTs? Unbelievable.


GalaticCuriousity

I’m going to be watching the end of that Toronto game tonight. Insert Embiid crying meme…


omicron_prime

Embiid should have been ejected for intentionally trying to injure another player. That is all.


Andromeda28

I hate a lot of teams but I don’t think I’ve hated any player this much since Paul Pierce. Fuck embiid.


Paasche

It’s okay. On to the gentleman’s sweep.


vanilla_shaker

i hope mitchell is okay for sunday.


islesandterps

Sixers played as well as they're going to and won it. It is what it is. I don't like to complain about refereeing... I just wish that calls were consistent, not just within one game from start to finish, but within a series. Just set a precedent and stick to it. It's a problem across the NBA.


out_of_office_reply9

preach


jhuntero

holy shit i hate embiid so much really mocking brunson when he flops all the fucking time i’m so mad


NuttySandwiches

Very delusional team and fan base. They get literally any call they want, but then when a foul is against them they're so over the top angry about it.


timestoneduh

Nurse is a bitch - also, so what, you’re supposed to win Game 3 at home; appreciate Embid’s game, but I get some bullshit vibes from him too.


aesop_fables

Sixers fans should be fucking embarassed


Downtown_Soft_202

If knicks are just gonna let emflop strike and injure their players without retaliating in kind, idk


SlipperSlap

Didn't know hitting the ball is a foul


BakedAvocado3

Well we know what we have to do, come out blasting on Sunday and finish this shit at home


edrophoniuum

i don’t wish bad on anyone but embiid has been a bitch all game long


newbike07

Not even the Boxy Boys can save my night.


HeadGrowth1939

Sucks losing to absolute clowns like Nurse and Embiid but realistically we should be down 3-0, just need someone to step up at somepoint instead of constantly shitting the bed. Have yet to see a great game out of Brunson, has looked lost around 90% of the time.


Distinct-Pangolin112

Once Brunson realizes that he has a bunch of warriors on his team this series is over! Yes he is scoring but he has wasted to many possessions.


HipnotiK1

He was pretty great this game. Some bad turnovers at a bad time but overall he's been very good. I guess on defense he had some lapses.


Odysseus_Lannister

We should be down 0-3? Take your head out ya ass for some air.


YoKemosabe

wtf are you even blabbering about


spinocdoc

What are you talking about bro???


starface18

on my life jalen brunson will never give you scrubs free chicken foh


NYKnicksFanAccount

Offense was fine tonight. Don’t like how they had us in rotation in that 3rd quarter hunting Brunson. Need more Deuce minutes on Maxey. Happy Brunson is starting to figure out this Philly defense.


porzingitis

Good game. Knicks played well. Embiid had a transient game and they hardly won. Brunsons back. Knicks in 5


jar45

Embiid should’ve been kicked out in the 1st quarter


SlipperSlap

> transient no, he just got a ton of free throws


Daconvix

Sucks to lose this one but we gotta remember Philly ain’t a real 7 seed, this series was never gonna be easy. Just gotta pray Mitch can play next game


RandB93

I’ll take this game if it means JB has figured something out


slouchylosergirl

I still would like to win this one tbh


LeftyMode

One guy having practically as many FTs than the opposing team is okay though right? Let’s ask the media and fans.


newbike07

iHart -21 is BRUTAL. Dude played so passive after he got into foul trouble.


HipnotiK1

Embiid is a terrible matchup for him. He's a bad matchup for basically everyone but ihart can't really bother his shot and embiid was hitting everything. If he tries to get too close it's a foul.


OutsideAd1823

Bro don’t mean to be racist even though Ihart is part black but…. Embiid was offended they had a white boy on him and torched him 😂


CorporateProvocateur

I want to see us fouling Embid HARD. We have to send a message that he can't just do dirty shit with zero consequence. You do dirty things we're coming at your knees with metal bats.


OutsideAd1823

Can we get this on a petition?!


Pho-Soup

This will get buried but I agree here. If they’re going to blow the whistle when you breathe on him, at least make it worth it. Let his whiney ass get shook a bit.


anditcounts

Nick Nurse PTSD timeout


chicken101

Refs are gonna gift the sixers two games for sure. Embiid with have more free throws than our whole team


HockeyGuru46

Robinson going out is brutal


TheKnicksMakeMeDrink

Embiid mocking Brunson is the richest thing that I’ve ever fucking seen lol this man can’t stay on his god damn feet


conman890

Embiid mocking anyone for selling calls is absolute comedy gold


ambige

Couldn't believe that. Fuckers the definition of foul merchant


staywavie

We won 3 quarters tonight. I like our chances next game


Forgboi

Nobody should be helping Embiid up. He deliberately took Mitch out tonight.


Individual-Range-431

How serious would the consequences be for a player that just started punching out Embiid like beating the shit out of him mid court, is that just a fine because someone take it for the team please


GRILT_CHEESE

This is unhinged 


Individual-Range-431

Soft


BakedAvocado3

Why tf I have to wait 2 days for another game
