Stop in Philly, Order Cheesesteaks, and Eat Embiid Fast - Official New York Knicks/Philadelphia 76ers First Round Thread [UPDATE: 76ers = #Taped]

Burks and Precious not seeing minutes in this game is unforgivable.

7-man rotation!?

Like I said playoff rotations are stupid af, just play the guys you would normally play

 

[BandOfGypsys]

You double that little motherfukka & let Tobias/Batum/Oubre beat you with their outside shots

then let Joe go 1on1?

Brunson decided to play hero ball in OT and blew the fukking game.

little midget gassed, he has no #2 to go to.

Maxey showing the difference between him and a "pick and roll guard". Maxey out here dominating this game, best player on the floor

Brunson on the other hand in the last 4-5 plays had no illegal screen on his side, looked like a deer in the headlights. If the Sixers are smart, they would put Oubre or Tobias on him at all times

(They’ve been on him all series).

Baby Dame!!!

I been trying to get @CHICAGO to cosign that comparison, but he keep ignoring me

 

[Unbothered]

Another thing is that NY gave Maxey too much space on the 3 point line and it cost them...

I don't understand why players throughout this postseason keep leaving good/great 3 point shooters wide open or giving them too much space.

You need to play them up close or double team them.

Only time you leave somebody wide open on the perimeter is if you know they're an all-time brickmaker.

Burks been benched for a month now

Knicks are gonna have a hard time without a true number 2 scorer. Saying that tho Randle never looks good in playoffs so they might be better off

 

[Mickey Kane]

Like I said playoff rotations are stupid af, just play the guys you would normally play

Bogey injured. Randle injured. Mitch hurt. So that's a factor.

There's nothing stupid about adjusting your rotation for a series because the opponent and context is different.

All that without mentioning IN-GAME adjustments.

Players and Thibs at fault today. Don't play with your f*cking food and finish your dinner.

 

[AAKing23]

Maxey is carrying Embiid's reputation.

Embiid reputation will always be shyt at this point

 

[SuaveyBoi115]

It was 28 seconds left up 6 I thought the knicks won wtf




Guess that game 2 victory got cancelled out

 

[Da Bull Ace]

We gave up all those open 3’s and still won lmao. Knicks are poop

 

[Izanami]

Maxxey low key pulled a Reggie Miller

 

[I AM WARHOL]

Baby Dame!!!

Never seen that comp but it makes sense. He’s like a twitcher, weaker Dame with less bounce. But they attack the same areas of the court and are the same height

 

[JoelB]

Tobias showed up we got atleast 1 game from him.

 

[I AM WARHOL]

I keep missing these games and they keep being classics smh. Was watching the scoreboard but had to tune into OT. I keep thinking the game is over
