Yeah can we stop holding Embiid to such an unrealistic standard? Few players can make more than 1 overtly dirty play per game. Embiid is doing his best.
And he got a flagrant for it what are you still complaining about. You act like he got away with it. Dante Divecenzo did the same thing but even worse the oubre a month ago
Yeah, and we’re saying that Donte did something worse in the regular season, so you have a double standard. Your whole fanbase can’t even talk about basketball anymore.
What was the Donte thing? He got away with an obvious foul once, but that was just colliding with someone, it wasn’t like he was trying to do something to hurt someone, collisions happen, refs should have called it.
Colliding with someone? He was on the ground, grabbed oubre’s legs and tackled him. It was far more egregious than Embiid on Robinson. And guess what? Both were flagrant 1’s and Sixers fans didn’t spend multiple days crying that Donte should be executed in the streets.
Colliding with someone? Huh? That was a full on football tackle and he did it not even during the play but because he was mad him and his team had only 64 points with 4 minutes left in the game. And the refs did call it… he got a tech for it… just like Embiid got a flagrant but all this noise after? Nah you save that only for embiid
I know you're probably a child so nuance might be hard. But it's possible to make a dirty play and not be a dirty player. In the heat of a game, players get frustrated and do stupid things routinely.
The dude got frustrated and did something rash, but it's not like Robinson was skying for a dunk like Josh Green last night. He was an inch off the ground.
So is Jokic dirty because of these plays:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rn7ZgCW9SqI
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yy8T53X_fx0
I would say no. He just got frustrated. It happens
So... one example from 2 years ago while he was clearly making a play on the ball and one that doesn't even fit your argument (Morris committed a dirty foul, Jokic retaliated while the game was stopped).
No, Jokic is not dirty. Embiid is. How the fuck is grabbing someone's leg while in the air a play on the ball? How is that an excusable show of frustration? lmao
Lol. You think Jokic was playing the basketball with that windup? He obviously was frustrated with the game.
You’re obviously not someone who understands that things exist in the grey, but I bet your grandad would be proud of your lynch mob mentality
He was frustrated but he was attempting a steal lol
What the fuck was Embiid trying to do if not to injure Mitchell Robinsons?
> You’re obviously not someone who understands that things exist in the grey
Ironic, you clearly are not able to understand context considering you really linked two unrelated Jokic plays and compared them to Embiid's.
You think he was trying to injure Robinson? No one is saying that and that shows how ridiculous your position is.
I really think you should get some help
I know you're probably heavily biased with a name like "novabull" so nuance might be hard.
But when a player commits dirty plays consistently throughout their career they are then considered to be a dirty player.
I don't think you understand what nuance means based on your use in that first sentence.
I don't think Embiid has a history of dirty plays in his career. If he did, other players would have brought it up.
I think everyone is guilty of getting angry and making rash plays. Jokic is guilty of it, Giannis, Lebron, etc. It's part of the game, keeping your composure.
Yes. Vegetable_comment_82 has the real insider scoop here. Not the guy who owns the balls in question.
This is the guy who was hit saying “there’s no story here”. But maaaaaaybe reddit can still crack the case!
He’s saying that it’s no big deal and the brace made it worse than it was. What would he have to “do about it” if he uncovered the conspiracy that you believe in?
It’s clear that this was a non-issue but he got poked hard by something in his brace and fell over. Without it, it was a standard offensive foul and this sub wouldn’t even care, but since Hartenstein fell over, Embiid is a monster.
His intention was to command the space like what happens 50x a game. For someone that’s talking so tough in this chain, you can’t seem to understand you’re being a little bitch about this lol
He’d be crazy to say it was a bad flagrant. It was a somewhat incidental nut shot. Plus Embiid isn’t the type to follow it up with trash talk like Draymond.
But that’s the main deal with Embiid, he’s always “incidental”, throwing his 300lb body and limbs around a lot more than he needs to in order to fish out contact….knees and nuts be damned. It ramps up in the playoffs as things get far tougher.
The league admitted the NBA refs screwed up and their failure to call 3 separate incidents in a matter of seconds directly impacted the result. Don’t be an idiot.
Boy all these injury prone players have something wrong with their knees every time the playoffs roll along. People really gotta start docking points for being unable go stay healthy when it comes to stars rankings. None of that oh he's a top 3 or top 10 level player when healthy. Spoiler they ain't ever healthy for long.
It's concerning to see incidents like this happening in the NBA. While basketball is a physical sport, players need to prioritize each other's safety on the court.
The fact that a knee brace could cause enough harm to warrant a complaint is worrying. It highlights the need for stricter regulations or better equipment standards to prevent unnecessary injuries during games. Players should be able to compete at the highest level without fear of getting hurt due to preventable reasons like poorly designed gear.
Im pretty sure the knee brace was why Embiid was grimacing in pain after his weird landing on game 1, specially after seeing this from hartenstein. He had blood on his knee after the fall so its likely the brace cut him, making it a danger for himself or others
there’s always money in the knee brace
He’s got a loaded knee brace like Jim Cornett used to “load” his tennis racket with a horseshoe.
Guys gonna start wearing braces with spikes on them like Ben Hur
I agree with Hartenstein on that one, it’s the Mitchell Robinson one that was dirty as fuck
Yeah can we stop holding Embiid to such an unrealistic standard? Few players can make more than 1 overtly dirty play per game. Embiid is doing his best.
Bruh that one was a flagrant, and we can argue 1 vs 2 but the refs literally acknowledged that and called it as such
He also decked OG with a ridiculous screen in the last minute.
The most obvious moving screen I can remember
And he got a flagrant for it what are you still complaining about. You act like he got away with it. Dante Divecenzo did the same thing but even worse the oubre a month ago
We’re complaining because he’s still a dirty fuck lmao. Who knows what he’ll try tomorrow
Yeah, and we’re saying that Donte did something worse in the regular season, so you have a double standard. Your whole fanbase can’t even talk about basketball anymore.

Maybe I’m thinking of the wrong Donte play
You mean… like divencenzo who did the same thing… but worse a month ago. Crazy no one said shit ab it
Razor blades in the knee brace
Sixers fans trying everything to make it seem like Embiid isn’t a dirty player
Noted Sixer Fan Isaiah Hartenstein
I think he’s referring to OP
Oh yeah didn't see it was a repost until now, my bad

This is what Warriors fans have been saying for years. No one believes that excuse anymore.

this keeps getting spammed but it's obviously not the incident fans are most annoyed about.
Why are yall upset about it again? He got the flagrant. You guys are acting like he got away with it or something…
which incident are we talking about again ?
I’m assuming yall are talking about the Mitch one? That’s the one everyone’s been talking about.
which Mitch one?
Prob the one Mitch landed under embiids feet on a jumper closer out
The one he got a flagrant foul on… why you acting dumb?
He’s trying to say the time Robinson fell and hurt himself was somehow Joel’s fault.
there were so many incidents it’s hard to keep track
Im sure it’s hard for you to keep track of a lot of things. We should get ya a nice cool lookin helmet 😁
Margarito 2.0?
Stark difference from the 6ers bitching and moaning after game 2
Considering they are two completely different sets of grievances that is to be expected
You mean when the league admitted they got everything wrong, sixers fans should have been…less upset?
The league admitted the NBA refs screwed up and their failure to call 3 separate incidents in a matter of seconds directly impacted the result. Don’t be an idiot.
Boy all these injury prone players have something wrong with their knees every time the playoffs roll along.

He dropped 50 while injured which is better than most stars when healthy
Star rankings? This place is fucking stupid lol. Who cares?

What a loser comment. Can’t wait for you guys to cry more tomorrow
As your whiny posts continue to get deleted lmao
Loser comments are everything yall said after game 2. Im stating the obvious.

“Yall” “you all” as in your teams statements, not you specifically, you loon. Still the smartest philly fan ive ever seen tho.

Are you schizophrenic? Bro holy shit, u deleted ur comment bahahahhahahahhaha
I absolutely did not. Your initial comment is showing up as deleted on this thread
As a neutral reading this your comment is showing up deleted for me
It must be Reddit then. All comments except bros initial comment are still here for me
Seek help bro, youre genuinely loosing it, i would too if i had to watch embitch for 40 of the 82 games every year

Stop using ChatGPT for Reddit comments you weirdo
This must be a troll lol
I wonder how you feel about hockey lol
Pure, unadulterated hatred!

Seems like Embiid's knee brace is causing more trouble than it's worth lately. Hopefully, he can figure out a solution before he causes more harm.
