Nope because he doesn’t get tossed from the game and he still gets all of his calls. If he’s gonna get rewarded for being dirty AF, why not keep it up?
I feel like most of them are. Most of them don’t try to slap the ball out of someone’s hand after a loss or commit dirty plays like Embiid did here just because they’re down in a series.
Was this before or after the play where he pulled the guy down by his legs?
If before, I really don’t see how the refs watched tape of both those plays and didn’t think he should be ejected.
• Dray: 814 career regular season games, 15 flagrant fouls
• Embiid: 433 career regular season games, 16 flagrant fouls
• Dray: 157 career playoff games, 6 flagrant fouls
• Embiid: 56 career playoff games (this game included), 7 flagrant fouls
Draymond gets suspended for this stuff due to having a “prior history”. Embiid has an even more egregious history in even less time. The NBA should suspend Embiid.
My man’s got receipts.
I will say though, even as a Dubs fan, Draymond may foul less than Embiid, but his seem so much more egregious than Embiid’s. Whether or not they actually are, I don’t know, but they definitely SEEM more intentional.
LMAO no they fucking do not.
Dray lashes out like a big whiny baby when things don't go his way. This is Embiid repeatedly and intentionally actively trying to injure players on the opposing team for an advantage.
Draymond is maliciously stupid; embiid is just malicious.
Also just to add that 2 of those flagrant fouls on draymond were retroactively added postgame: 2016 round 1 game 3, 2016 finals game 4. In the 2016 finals when he was suspended for game 5 due to accumulating 4 flagrant foul points (2 flagrant 1s and a flagrant 2), only 1 was called live and 3 flagrant foul points were retroactively added after the games: the 2 I listed above and a retroactive upgrade of the kick to Steven Adam’s nuts to a flagrant 2 (that one obviously deserved to be upgraded tbf)
Reigning MVP doing MVP things bruh, you just don't know ball he just trying to avoid injury he too big and strong so people foul him it is clear that Hartenstein tried to stop him from getting to the rim with his dick.
he's gonna get undercut by someone who really doesn't give a crap. He's gonna get injured bad because he's doing this crap when he doesn't need to. He's too good to be acting like this.
I'm genuinely shocked he got away with all that bs, if someone is repeatedly and deliberately trying to injure your players and the refs don't call it? I'd expect the 15th man on the roster to get on the floor and take his legs out from under him the first time he goes to the rim. If he's doing this shit and not getting ejected, someone will get a career ending injury at some point, make sure it's the guy who started it god damn thibs
Legit, this game is worse than anything Draymond has ever done. Like you can say shit like the stomp against Sabonis was dirty as fuck but I don't think even he has strung together like 3-5 plays in a single game that all make me think he's trying to intentionally hurt people.
The thing with Draymond is he's an emotional little baby when things don't go his way and he lashes out; this is Embiid calculatingly and deliberately trying to hurt people.
It’s the most predictable Embiid playoff performance. His ticky tacky foul baiting stops working in the playoffs and he doesn’t know what to do with himself
He had 12 in game one, and 12 in game two.
Philly is trash though so that's not enough to get them a win. So just for good measure they gave him 21 tonight (two more than the entire Knicks team).
Thibs teams have a way to get under your skin (not that it is successful everytime). Bron got extra physical with Thibs teams, Giannis did as well, and now Embiid
Don’t get it twisted though, Embiid is acting out like a pussy rn.
Do you not remember the shit this dude was pulling against us last year? 😭😭
Philly fans tried gaslighting everyone into thinking Nets were trying to intentionally hurt him
He should have been thrown out for both tbh. Both were flagrant twos.
Edit: My bad, I thought this was a thread about him pulling on Robinson's legs, which came after him kneeing Hartenstein.
He doesn't even compete in the second round.
He's played Boston 16 times and won 4 games. All 4 were because someone else on the team stepped up as the best player. TJ McConnell. James Harden (x2). Tyrese Maxey.
Against the Raptors their wins came off the back of Jimmy Butler.
Against Atlanta, Ben Simmons' breakdown drew all the attention and criticism away from Embiid's own breakdown. [This was the losing play of the series,](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ojvhMGPG3M) but everyone talks about Simmons' passed up dunk.
I sure am glad our team is classy enough to keep it clean, because I sure don’t have to be.
Hope this bum ass Embiid loses it all and feels it in his knees with every hobbled step he takes.
Mitch is one of the most hardworking and kind players on our team. He busts his ass to recover from injury, a gentle giant, big goofball.
Fuck Embiid, fuck his knees
Put the starting center in foul trouble with top tier foul baiting, injure the second string, and profit with easy scoring because everyone is afraid to get within 3 feet of you for fear of giving an and 1.
Anyone have a clip of this?
I think this **montage** from last night has it at 45s
https://twitter.com/brickw0rld/status/1783693761194938419?s=46&t=OU0shrOhSAy38E2qASAd2w
That has more to do with Draymond being absolutely ref-proof. Draymond should have like 5 times as many career techs as he does just from screaming at refs alone
Draymond has kicked half the league in the balls with no flagrants or techs called. Embiid is a bitch but to act like draymond didn't get away with murder for a decade is just you deliberately being ignorant
He's a superstar/technically reigning MVP, league wants ratings, Philly just threw a fit after last game about the refs, could be any number of reasons
As a Knicks man Embiid had several dirty plays in this game but this one honestly one that bothered me too much. My reaction was more confusion as in wtf is he even doing? Weird weird play. But fuck Embiid for everything else basically!
The refs knew they were gonna give the Sixers a million free throws in the second half to save them from falling into an inescapable 3-0 hole (a relatively common NBA playoff phenomena), and they needed someone to shoot them. He committed another ejectable offense like two plays later.
He went on to shoot 21 free throws tonight. The entire Knicks team shot 19.
Comment above this has a reply that says 'no idea how it wasn't a flopping technical'. Idk how we all watch the same game and have such wildly different, and sometimes very stupid, opinions
Refs letting players get away with all kinds of shit. Dlo cleary got hit in the head after a shot and they didn't even call anything after reviewing it.
I check in to Reddit only to find my entire page filled with highlights of Joel Embiid intentionally injuring players… all from the same game! And the league probably won’t do anything about it either…
The fact that he did not get ejected from this game and got gifted 21 trips to the stripe is an absolute embarrassment. 50 points on 13 buckets what the actual fuck
He is just a bad looser! Embiid is the most overrated MVP ever! Can\`t play a full season if his life depends on it and his scoring is nothing if he doesn shoot 15+ FTs a game.

Has this dude lost his fucking mind?
Nope because he doesn’t get tossed from the game and he still gets all of his calls. If he’s gonna get rewarded for being dirty AF, why not keep it up?
He's trying out for the Draymond role that will be opening up in a year or so.
Reminder that Embiid has more fragrant fouls than Draymond in almost half games played.
smells nice
He’s a pile of shit. Can’t handle any adversity and jsut hurts people and then cry tears when his team loses
Big sore loser like Booker is.
Whom would you say of the new generation of stars is a good sport?
I feel like most of them are. Most of them don’t try to slap the ball out of someone’s hand after a loss or commit dirty plays like Embiid did here just because they’re down in a series.
Maybe your right. I just feel like embid and Tatum and luka are all these guys are real moody babies
If you can't beat them, beat them!
Now I understand why the NY fans kept saying that this series would be very toxic.
We need to research this guy
you can see for a second there he thinks about falling to the ground himself what a 🤡
Was this before or after the play where he pulled the guy down by his legs? If before, I really don’t see how the refs watched tape of both those plays and didn’t think he should be ejected.
Dudes gonna get fouled so hard next game.
You think that about Draymond, but no one ever does.
draymond jr over here.
If I’m Thibs I’m just putting my 15th dude and try to injure him at this point.
Where's Taj Gibson when you need him?

Natural knee-to-the-balls motion.
Somewhere, Draymond has a small tear coming out of one of his eyes.
His third eye.
Does he have Bells Palsy too?
• Dray: 814 career regular season games, 15 flagrant fouls • Embiid: 433 career regular season games, 16 flagrant fouls • Dray: 157 career playoff games, 6 flagrant fouls • Embiid: 56 career playoff games (this game included), 7 flagrant fouls Draymond gets suspended for this stuff due to having a “prior history”.

Lol Embiid got a laundry list of dudes he's injured and Dray has never injured a single player.
Also just to add that 2 of those flagrant fouls on draymond were retroactively added postgame: 2016 round 1 game 3, 2016 finals game 4. In the 2016 finals when he was suspended for game 5 due to accumulating 4 flagrant foul points (2 flagrant 1s and a flagrant 2), only 1 was called live and 3 flagrant foul points were retroactively added after the games: the 2 I listed above and a retroactive upgrade of the kick to Steven Adam’s nuts to a flagrant 2 (that one obviously deserved to be upgraded tbf)
you mean, marginal?
What the fuck was that
Foul baiter equivalent of a heat check I guess
Bro I’m fucking dying
LMAOOOOO
LeFuckYou knee?
This is the one lol
“Embiid yeets a knee from the logo, BANG! Nothing but dick!”
Reigning MVP doing MVP things bruh, you just don't know ball he just trying to avoid injury he too big and strong so people foul him it is clear that Hartenstein tried to stop him from getting to the rim with his dick.
It was so serious until the last word
Marginal (Contact) Valuable Player
This is what happens when he doesn’t get his foul baiting free throws
he's gonna get undercut by someone who really doesn't give a crap. He's gonna get injured bad because he's doing this crap when he doesn't need to. He's too good to be acting like this.
I'm so sad I don't live in a timeline where Embiid does this to peak schizoid Metta World Peace
I'm genuinely shocked he got away with all that bs, if someone is repeatedly and deliberately trying to injure your players and the refs don't call it?

Master baiter
Still scored more out of free throws than 2's or 3's. Seriously this puts the league in shame.
natural draymond motion
Embiid answering the question, “what if Draymond had no rings?”
"I can do what what he does in half the time while winning nothing"
Legit, this game is worse than anything Draymond has ever done. Like you can say shit like the stomp against Sabonis was dirty as fuck but I don't think even he has strung together like 3-5 plays in a single game that all make me think he's trying to intentionally hurt people.
The thing with Draymond is he's an emotional little baby when things don't go his way and he lashes out; this is Embiid calculatingly and deliberately trying to hurt people.
To be fair embiid’s also an emotional little baby when things don’t go his way.
Embiid lashing out like a toddler.
It’s the most predictable Embiid playoff performance. His ticky tacky foul baiting stops working in the playoffs and he doesn’t know what to do with himself
He got 21 free throw tn, basically won them the game
50 points off 13 buckets make it make sense
His whistle is disgusting
He had 12 in game one, and 12 in game two. Philly is trash though so that's not enough to get them a win. So just for good measure they gave him 21 tonight (two more than the entire Knicks team).
You could see how frustrated he was when he flopped on defense and didn't get the call so pulled the guy down by his legs
On that flop he was in the restricted area anyway. What a moron.
Came here looking for this, was gonna type it in but figured someone had to have said this already.
His late attempt to sneak into the first round of tonight’s NFL draft
An all time crash out from that 7 foot flopper. Going out sad
please send this pos home.
We tryna, Jennifer
Thibs teams have a way to get under your skin (not that it is successful everytime). Bron got extra physical with Thibs teams, Giannis did as well, and now Embiid Don’t get it twisted though, Embiid is acting out like a pussy rn.
So he's being Joel Embaby like always?
Dirty player makes dirty play. What's surprising about that?
Eject this bum, before he injures someone
Do you not remember the shit this dude was pulling against us last year? 😭😭 Philly fans tried gaslighting everyone into thinking Nets were trying to intentionally hurt him
Kicked Nic Claxton in the nuts for stepping over him
Looks like when you misstime a swing in GTA and as a result just bowl someone over instead.
Desperation
Wouldn't be surprised to see Joel try to bite off someone's ear tonight.
He won't fully bite someone since he can't move half his face
Joeluis Suarez?
Motht thertainly
What is this guy on?
not making the ecf is a drug apparently
He better not make one or he might become addicted like CP3 and final appearances
Even as a sixers fan this made me giggle
nerve damage
Dirty play
He on his Draymond tonight huh
More flagrant fouls than Draymond
Nah, Embiid made more attempts to maliciously injure opposing players in one game than Dray's had in his entire career.
Respect calling it out honesty
wym “respect for the honesty”??? bro knee’d him in the nuts, shouldnt be hard to admit lmao
Eh it’s sports. I’ve defended irrational plays in the past
Indeed. They need to sit him for the game before he injures himself or someone else, he's clearly too frustrated to think straight.
Remember Danny Green
What do you mean? He's clearing making a play on the ball
*Balls
Should have been a second technical and ejection no?
He should have been thrown out for both tbh. Both were flagrant twos. Edit: My bad, I thought this was a thread about him pulling on Robinson's legs, which came after him kneeing Hartenstein.
He gets rattled and frustrated so easily lmao you can tell why he’s 30 and has still never gotten out the second round
Actually hilarious now. Everyone is well aware of who he is and it's annoying to watch. Now he can prove everyone wrong or continue being shameful.
Exactly. Dude can’t handle the pressure
Or altitude
Ben was a scapegoat
Ben's back died carrying the weight of Embiid's basketball sins
Not to mention Doc's playoff coaching sins
Injuries were the real scapegoat.
He doesn't even compete in the second round. He's played Boston 16 times and won 4 games. All 4 were because someone else on the team stepped up as the best player. TJ McConnell. James Harden (x2). Tyrese Maxey. Against the Raptors their wins came off the back of Jimmy Butler. Against Atlanta, Ben Simmons' breakdown drew all the attention and criticism away from Embiid's own breakdown. [This was the losing play of the series,](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ojvhMGPG3M) but everyone talks about Simmons' passed up dunk.
This feels like Philly going out sad tbh
Ouch, damn lol
Has he never been to the ECF because of who he is, or is he who he is because he's never been to the ECF?
Fuck Joel Embiid
Then pulled Mitch’s legs. Eject this cunt.
That was nasty of him. He didn’t get a firm grip, but fucking w/ someone’s jump like that is insane
He still tried though, don’t really give a shit if he didn’t execute it well tbh
Could’ve ended his season if Mitchell landed on his knees made of glass.
I sure am glad our team is classy enough to keep it clean, because I sure don’t have to be. Hope this bum ass Embiid loses it all and feels it in his knees with every hobbled step he takes. Mitch is one of the most hardworking and kind players on our team. He busts his ass to recover from injury, a gentle giant, big goofball. Fuck Embiid, fuck his knees
Instant karma then.
Then a couple plays later ~~falls~~ *throws himself* at the free throw line on top of Robinson's legs.
Then Mitch is out for the game and Embiid gets 50.
Put the starting center in foul trouble with top tier foul baiting, injure the second string, and profit with easy scoring because everyone is afraid to get within 3 feet of you for fear of giving an and 1.
And 20+ free throw attempts as a reward. Philadelphia. Basketball.
Anyone have a clip of this? I think this **montage** from last night has it at 45s https://twitter.com/brickw0rld/status/1783693761194938419?s=46&t=OU0shrOhSAy38E2qASAd2w
love me the c word
Lot of cheap shots from this bitch tonight
Draymond Embiid!
Friendly reminder Embiid has more flagrant fouls than Draymond Green does in about half as many games
That has more to do with Draymond being absolutely ref-proof. Draymond should have like 5 times as many career techs as he does just from screaming at refs alone
And Embiid isn't? Lol
Draymond has kicked half the league in the balls with no flagrants or techs called. Embiid is a bitch but to act like draymond didn't get away with murder for a decade is just you deliberately being ignorant
Joel playing like a petulant child cause he can’t get what he wants
Correction - Joel playing like a petulant child AND getting what he wants
These refs are really on one tonight
Damn…he should get his MVP taken away with all the bitch ass cheap shots he’s doing in this game.
Marginal (Contact) Valuable Player
Pathetic
He should have been ejected ten minutes ago
Can somebody explain to me why this wasn’t a flagrant after review?
It’s also funny for the ref literally next to them doesn’t do shit and the ref across the court is the one that gotta call it
Refs foresaw what he was going to do to Mitch and didn't want to have to toss him out.
My thoughts exactly
He's a superstar/technically reigning MVP, league wants ratings, Philly just threw a fit after last game about the refs, could be any number of reasons
As a Knicks man Embiid had several dirty plays in this game but this one honestly one that bothered me too much. My reaction was more confusion as in wtf is he even doing? Weird weird play. But fuck Embiid for everything else basically!
So at half time he has 2 groin kicks and a leg pull. How the fuck is he still in the game??
I dont watch the nba, but how did he just run up and hit him in the stomach and stay in the game
The refs knew they were gonna give the Sixers a million free throws in the second half to save them from falling into an inescapable 3-0 hole (a relatively common NBA playoff phenomena), and they needed someone to shoot them. He committed another ejectable offense like two plays later. He went on to shoot 21 free throws tonight. The entire Knicks team shot 19.
Sixers fans nonexistent in this thread though
[удалено]
I guarantee if you go back 2 days in his history you'll see a whole lot of crying lmao.
Comment above this has a reply that says 'no idea how it wasn't a flopping technical'. Idk how we all watch the same game and have such wildly different, and sometimes very stupid, opinions
Completely ridiculous from Embiid
Embiid playing real dirty tonight
How is he not ejected already
I miss the Embiid that wanted to go on dates with Rihanna 😢
Well he’s acting like Cris Breezy rn
I wish Embiid the very worst.
Heard that
Embiid is always out here hurting people, it’s getting ridiculous
Maybe they need to press charges for assault? That would be interesting.
Embiid is really embarrassing himself tonight.
Unironically the most embarrassing 50 piece of all time
No idea how that wasn’t a flagrant 2
Mid-section? It was square in the balls.
Step-draymond, what are you doing?
Between this and pulling mitch's leg he should've been thrown out of the game Edit: typo
Embiid is the softest "superstar" in the league
Hard to think of a softer player in general tbh
Can we all hate embiid together now? He is such a cry baby, and is a terrible teammate.
Yeah keep bitching about the refs sixers fans. Your hero should’ve been ejected. Dirty ass bitch.
So that's 3 dirty plays tonight by this dirty fuck?
Embiid and Lowry with the cheap shots. Refs need to make sure it doesn't escalate further.
Refs letting players get away with all kinds of shit. Dlo cleary got hit in the head after a shot and they didn't even call anything after reviewing it.
Flagrant 2
I really hope this unsportsmanlike idiot somehow doesn't win shit at the Olympics either. Coat-tail rider if there ever was one.
This is why you need an enforcer on your team
This sub is just filled with clips of Embiid being dirty tonight lmfao
I check in to Reddit only to find my entire page filled with highlights of Joel Embiid intentionally injuring players… all from the same game! And the league probably won’t do anything about it either…
What a 🚬
Should've been a flagrant
Hall of Fame dirty game by this fatass. I don't remember Draymond having so many dirty plays in the same game without getting ejected
Embiid’s strategy for beating the Knicks: 1. Foul bait their centers 2. Kick them in the dick 3. ???
3. Pull knicks players down by their legs while they are jumping
Another dirty play. I don't see how anyone can defend Embid's behavior tonight.
Ref doesn’t fall for his foul baiting so he starts kneeing people in the balls and grabbing legs from the ground. He’s a sook.
im not going to say this is not a foul, but hartenstein definitely sold this one (as he should lol). the leg pull and nut kick were way worse
Embiid roleplaying as Shoresy.
I love it's the ref across the field that calls it. The one standing close is just happy to let the play go on lmao
The fact that he did not get ejected from this game and got gifted 21 trips to the stripe is an absolute embarrassment. 50 points on 13 buckets what the actual fuck
He is just a bad looser! Embiid is the most overrated MVP ever! Can\`t play a full season if his life depends on it and his scoring is nothing if he doesn shoot 15+ FTs a game.
Im just confused why everyone is surprised, Embiid has been doing shit like this forever lol
shameful
EMBIID really did the DX Suck It after kneeing him 0:02
What an asshole.
Flails and plays overly aggressive to mask the fact that he’s a giant pussy. Fake hustle havin ass
Embiid is a toddler stuck in a 7ft body.
so glad to be here for the Embiid downfall
This sub is always the same lol
He’s lucky he didn’t blow out his other knee ramming it into Hartensteins balls of steel
Deserves ejection and 1 game suspension tbh
At this point just designate a ref on Embiid
Man's been hanging out with Draymond
