NY started getting those offensive rebounds. They had 2 off reb compared to 16 def reb (11% off reb rate) for Philly late in Q2. Since then NY has 7 off reb to 11 def reb (39% off reb rate).

So Maxey had 20 at half. 4 points since then. I think T Harris was at 10pts at halftime and has not scored in the 2nd half. Nobody else in double digits for Philly outside of Embiid. His supporting cast not showing up.

2pts = P Reed, Hield
4pts = Oubre
6pts = Lowry, Batum

That is how little the rest of the guys are bringing to the table.

God, I’ve totally lost respect watching Brunson’s flailing and flopping on both sides of the ball. So unenjoyable to watch.

SVG is crazy. That is an offensive foul on Maxey. He just hit Brunson in the face with the ball while Brunson was largely still.

Credit to Embiid for gutting out 31/10, even inefficient as it is.  Guy can't move.  He must be playing at 40% out there.

Why the heck is Embiid playing? He can’t even walk without a limp. Do they really think they have a chance of winning the East if he’s already like this?

Feels like a very shortsighted move, or Embiid just demanding to play.

Heard Knicks fans were chanting "We Want Boston" outside MSG after their win in Game 1.

Sounds like everyone wants Boston as we're on their hitlist lol  ;D

Diving on the floor with a bad knee? Phew! Fair dues.

Good game in NY tonight. Embiid is a warrior.

The Knicks offensive gameplan should be forcing Embiid into pick and roll action every time down the floor - he simply cannot move right now. Make him work defensively.

It is plain wrong to see Pat Ewing wearing a nikey hoodie with that MJ jump-man logo. C'mon Pat.

We can complain about Embiid's flopping and such, but I don't deny the guy's toughness. He shouldn't be out there but he's gutting it out. Him and Maxey giving their all and Maxey is dealing with an illness too

Tobias Harris really is one of the more useless 190M contracts I've seen. And the sad part is he actually plays most games and he just sucks lol.
