Stop in Philly, Order Cheesesteaks, and Eat Embiid Fast - Official New York Knicks/Philadelphia 76ers First Round Thread [UPDATE: 76ers = #Taped]
- Thread starter KnickstapeCity
- Start date
I still think this is gonna be a long series. Philly's role guys will play better at home. Brunson's not going to have an easy time either, the Sixers just have a great scheme and players to bother his shot.
Knicks are gonna have to rely very heavily on Hart and DDV to pick up the slack scoring, which to their credit they've done. Hart's been the best player for the Knicks this series so far.
Crazy.
This is what magical playoff basketball looks like. With the Knicks in the playoffs, it is always as if the basketball gods are using a Michael Bay CHATGPT prompt to write the script. Sheesh.
MORE BASKETBALL NERD shyt FOR THOSE INTERESTED:
Ever heard of Lawler's Law?
Since the 96-97 season - Lawler's law has been correct over 90% of the time. (This is a BIG Sports betting cheat code, by the way)
Lawler's Law - The first team to score 100 points goes on to win the game over 90% percent of the time.
Knicks just defied some insane odds.
Miami has the BEST odds of winning once they get to 100 first - 94.6

Knicks got an absolute miracle performed last night
Let's pretend like Brunson didnt rip Maxey jersey on the inbound pass. This image clearly shows Maxey with possession and Nurse calling timeout.
Refs were wylin last night, they went to jail ball rules in the 4th quarter
They just let McBride rip the ball out of Lowry's hand and go for a teardrop, that should have been called a held ball and jump it up
Oh well - that's why they call it home cooking. Philly will get a friendlier whistle Thursday.
Let's pretend Maxey didn't two hand, arms extended, shove to get open to even get to this point for the refs to miss something else

fukk that big flopping ass gimp Embiid. 
Im not defending that, but still images are a bit different than actual video. The ref is watching the play. By the time he looks over to nurse the ball is out of his hands and all hell has broken loose. It was a wild sequence of events, Maxey didn't hold onto the ball long enough(a second at most) for the ref to catch unfortunately for the sixers. Idk why he didn't bear hug it while on the ground, no one was grabbing for it while he was laying on his stomach
