The problem isn’t sixers selling tickets… it’s the sixers season ticket holders selling their tickets to Knicks fans

@@kai6xx With Joel Emibiid in lineup 31-8. Without him 16-27. Obviously this had EVERYTHING to do with their seeding this season. Simple FACTS/ METRICS, which apparently, you are allergic to. Meanwhile, if you do watch the games, perhaps you notice that Embiid is wearing a brace on his left knee. His lateral movement is affected as well as his overall mobility. Hence, the reason Robinson blocked his shot twice in game 5.

He didn't shoot as much, he set up his teammates. With 10 assists and 1 key mid range shot late in the 4th quarter. He was diving on the floor for a loose ball, he contributed by getting rebounds, and setting up guys and then Tyreese Maxey took over.

A line up with BRUNSON, HART/DIVO, OG , ACHUWA AND ROBINSON/HARTENSTEIN IS NECESSARY WITH THIS HEIGHT IS PISSIN ME OF WITH PHILLY
Sixers won with Embiid playing “bad.” Sixers in 7.
People need to realise that Embiid had a "bad game". He will go for 30+ tonight. Brunson probably gotta go for 40 if Maxey is getting hot again. Also Knicks gotta stop fouling Embiid and defend smarter, like the last game. Knick done give them momentum anyways, if it goes to game 7 Philly is taking this.

A LOT had to go wrong for the Knicks to lose that game. Maxey got away with a huge travel but that doesn't excuse Mitch having a three shoved down his throat twice. With one coming with a boneheaded foul. I've always screamed the loudest on how bad Mitch is when he is not under the rim. Both times hammered that statement home in that last game.

She’s aggressive ❤she knows what she talking bout I like her
Steve is a fake fan. Bottom line is we're freeing up Embiid to go take care of his medicial issues and we're freeing the 6ers of their Tobias contract tonight. We're trying to help the Sixers by freeing them up to work on the future. This right here is our time. Knicks in six.
BLAaAaAaAaAa..... IN THE END STEPHEN A. TAKES THIS ONE!!!!!
I think theres gonna be more knicks fans than game 4 🤣
Actually, being down 6 - 8 points, season on the line, is less pressure. With that clock running down but "still possible," you just take the shot. There's no pressure because people don't expect you to hit it. You're at half-court, no time outs? OK, it's all or nothing. Knicks will end this tonight.

Embiid does this every year. He always gets sick as soon as the playoffs starts and completely forgets how to play basketball.
The pressure is on the Knicks for this one. If they lose the series after being up 3-1 it would be a huge embarrassment.
I'm a sixers fan, but the Knicks are going to win the series regardless of if it goes 6 or 7. It took an utter miracle to win game 5, and there is no way Philly is going to be able to steal another game at the garden should this go 7 games.

The Knicks literally mugged Maxey to death in game 2 and got just as much of a miracle and unjust win as you're claiming game 5 was for Philly. So, really, Philly should be up 3-2 in this series instead of New York. Do you people even THINK before you type things?
Maxey is keeping DiVincenzo on the bench because McBride is the only one who can stay with him. It has taken a top shooter off the floor
I saw that Freudian slip Stephen A 7:47
The highlights of the playoffs are exhausted, I just loved watching curry and lebron be sent home. Nothing is going to top that.
Listening to these guys you would think that outside of Brunson, Embiid and Maxey there were no other significant players. I would argue that Hield was probably the second most important player for Philadelphia in keeping that game close. For New York, without key contributions from Divincenzo, Anunoby and Hartenstein this series is going back to New York. It’s a team sport and despite how good Brunson played without those other contributions this is a loss.
Christine is so much better as a host than Molly it’s crazy!
Lets call a spade a spade, Embiid us a low down dirty player who should play for the Miami cheat, he fits the culture 😂
76ers can't depend on Maxey with Embiid clearly not close to 100%. Idk, Knicks still got the lead and would win in 7 imo. Really up to Embiid's health. Go Celtics!

Aight full disclosure: I'm a 6ers guy. That's my team and I'm always hoping they'll finally get over the hump, but I'll fully admit that Brunson has been RIDICULOUS since he got to NY. I say all that because I'm confused. Wasn't Stephen A begging for a "star" that could do exactly what Brunson has been doing for the last 2 years? Guess he finally saw what a lot of other people did...
