LETS GET IT! 7:30 Tip Time.....Knicks game on the big 85" tv in my theatre room and Draft on the 50" tv in the bar area....Lets go!
Rumor has it Mitch may miss the game tonight (He's listed as Q with Ankle load management)
Sixers are 5.5 point favorites, refs aren't gonna do us no favors....
Put the Sixers in the trunk and go up 3-0!
Well I'm sure you can bet the over/under on Embiid's FT's. Definitely bet the over on that one.
Shouldn't be too bad considering he had surgery in December. But, getting it back to great condition will take time. Game 1 was his first time playing 30+ min since December so I wouldn't be surprised if they sit him out of caution.
Yup, time for Brunson to break out. Pretty remarkable we pulled of games 1 and 2 with him cold in hindsight. Let’s bury these whiny fucks
As far as Mitch goes, if he misses it then it is only 1 game. I'd rather him as healthy as possible for the rest of the series than just tonight. If he's able to go then great. Precious is probably begging to play and, honestly, I love what he brings. He'd keep our huge rebounding advantage going while still being able to provide some offense.
Sixers need to hope to keep shit close! Knicks are good at home and soul crushing on the road. If the Sixers think they got this because they are home think again. MSG south. Fuck off philly.

like "bullshit calls for the home team." Although I am going to look into if one can bet total fouls called lol.

Couldn't find anything like that, so just bet the over lol. More Free Throws = more points.
Embid has decided rebounding and defense are not important. If you spread them out it's 5-4 and have everyone continue to crash the boards hard.
He is going to get his in the first half but keep him moving and push pace.
Eventually Maxey or Embiid will have a bad game, they have been playing fantastic the first 2 games..

I just can't see Embiid holding up for the 4-5 more games they would need to win. Maxey is a beast I think he can continue to thrive.
They have been trying but what Phikky does is use Hart's man to switch with Embiid so he doesnt have to move, thats why Hart has been so open
We're up 2-0. If the game is going well I think it's perfectly reasonable to use Mitch less than usual, considering we intend to go on a deep run.
you really think Thibs, of all people, is going to baby a player at this point? If they're being extra cautious with him they likely have legit reason for concern.

in screen actions on offense. He needs to prove that he has the stamina and mobility to play on both ends of the floor. Brunson needs to bring it tonight, but we've been playing well lately.

which is why Hart should maybe sit once in a while. Yes he's made them pay but they haven't been able to get Brunson going and the offense has really bogged down at times. If things start clicking and Embiid is a statue on defense, we can blow them out.

That's bullshit. And not having Robinson, at this point, is a huge blow, especially in this series.

I think this game comes down to the role players because the Knicks depth has been exceptional and the Sixers haven’t done jackshit outside of a few quarters from Kyle Lowry. Embiid (in his current form) and Maxey can’t be expected to play better than they have so far. The Sixers need their other players to step up.
The Knicks could really use Jalen Brunson getting back to himself in order to take the pressure off of everyone else.

I’m ok not having game 2 Mitch play today if it helps us get game 1 Mitch back later in the series.
great, need his offensive rebounds tonight
NBA doesn't care about the NFL especially the draft
We need Brunson to hit open shots.
I have to say we've set some questionable screens and got away them though. We need Brunson to hear up. He's getting good looks.
