2024 Playoffs Eastern Conference First Round: (2) New York Knicks vs (7) Philadelphia 76ers - The Danse Macabre

[bigq]

I find myself admiring Embid's doing what he can despite bad legs and bad stamina.

I agree but it feels like he can't keep this up for too much longer. He can't really run.

 

[Murderer's Crow]

Brunson just needs to stop forcing his shots right now. He'll figure it out but not tonight, clearly.

 

[JoeSuit]

I’m not a huge fan of Embiid but gotta give him a lot of credit for gutting it out. He can hardly move.

No doubt. I also admire his soft touch…but I find his demeanor hard to stomach. He tends toward being chippy and dramatic. If we wore green I’d feel better about him…

 

[radsoxfan]

Embiid looking very much like Robert Williams post partial lateral meniscectomy.

Kind of amazing how good he is on offense despite barely being able to move, but this seems like a bad idea for them long term. I guess Morey thinks they can make a deep run and win the title still?

I wonder when his last MRI was and how ugly his knee looks at the moment.

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

Looked like DiVincenzo got away with a push underneath before he got hit.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Nickles might actually get the foul changed to Maxey or Embiid

 

[Murderer's Crow]

Philly getting the whistle all game it feels like

 

[Ed Hillel]

What???

 

[dhellers]

but these last games the "Chippy and dramatic" is not as prevalent as it usually is.
Weird to be appreciating rather than annoyed by Embid, but that is the case AT THIS MOMENT

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Bagjob call

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

If course Lowry pull that off. Dude is definitely a wizard.

They certainly seem to be getting every call down the stretch.

 

[JoeSuit]

Dr. Nurse is hugely demonstrative…but Thibs is king of the bitter beer face.

 

[stp130]

I love everything about this series.

 

[bigq]

Maxey makes up for his turnover in a big way

 

[ifmanis5]

Maxey huge 3.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Same. Really impressive gutting it out.

But to my eyes (far less trained than radsox') it also has a Time Lord in 2022 vibe to it all

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

Hart totally lost there.

 

[Light-Tower-Power]

Josh Hart gets the Marcus Smart treatment and then badly clangs a wide open three late in the game. Brings back memories.

 

[the moops]

Hart totally lost there.

Yea no need to double Embiid there

 

[Ed Hillel]

There should be national outrage over that overturn.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Brunson another horrible shooting night

 

[mikeford]

As productive as Embiid has been despite his massive limitations physically right now, I still don't understand why they keep giving him the ball so far from the basket.

Maxey to Knicks:

Too soon. Will Brunson finally make a shot?

Edit: nope.

 

[Murderer's Crow]

Every godamn play Lowry screams. My god dude shut up.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Kyle Lowry should have fouled out in the third. He may now escape his second fifth in the past two minutes

 

[InstaFace]

If course Lowry pull that off. Dude is definitely a wizard.

This but Lowry

lol

 

[jayhoz]

Why does it matter that Lowry contacted the ball first on the previous challenge? As long as you touch the ball you can hack a guy on the shoulder?

Also, he didn’t, he grabbed his wrist.

 

[bankshot1]

This series has been fun

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Everything is coming up Kyle!

 

[the moops]

I didn't even know OG was playing

 

[Helmet Head]

Brunson. 7-28. Yikes

 

[Mystic Merlin]

25 percent from the field

 

[timelysarcasm]

Questionable call aside, the Knicks can't throw it in the ocean right now.

edit: LOL okay Knicks and their fans can stfu about that missed call.

 

[InstaFace]

Everything is coming up Kyle!

I recollecdt several times Tatum got clobbered after shooting, and the foul gets overturned.
So .... yeah, contact after release is often not a fouled\

Damn. nyk getting lucky. Why didn't CJM call a timeoout?

 

[HowBoutDemSox]

Wow!
