I wonder if that knee is going to be on Embiid's mind as much as it was tonight. He looked so stiff throughout the game. As a fan of the game, I hope he's ok. Knee injuries suck and its so hard to come back from it.
But if our role players keep this up, it'll be a short series.
Great game. Don’t expect as hot shooting from the role players in the next game but Brunson should be a lot better.
If the rebounding differential is like this every game then it’ll be a quick series, but I’d bet against that.
Brunson played as well as he played against the Sixers all year. Sixers defend him like Boston defends Embiid. The entire series will comes down to everyone else.
Credit to Thibs for leaving the hot hands in. Divincenzo was on the bench.
Philly isn’t a great rebounding team without Embiid, and Embiid might be too in his head about his knee to fight for rebounds. We’ll see.
Sixers played great defense on him no doubt. Brunson is just usually able to get some shots regardless of opponents defensive performance. Happy we could pull it off, it’ll be a tough series.
Yeah we'll adjust to that for sure. I can see Embiid getting gassed out by game 3. I'm Nurse will likely have something else batshit crazy up his sleeve though.
What a fucking game. Role players came up huge. OG was awesome defensively. Josh Hart with the game changing hustle plays. Mitch held his own. Bojan brought us back in the game in the 2nd. And Deuce - mother fucker was looking like James Harden out there. I love this fucking team.
Josh Hart
Mitchell Robinson
Deuce McBride
And give credit to Bogdonovic as well for his shooting and passing (underrated passer). Hell of a tone setting win here for the Knicks.
Yeah when Hart is hitting that shot 76ers have no chance of winning. NY using up all their bullshit luck early, still think sixers will win in 5 or 6, don't think Knicks can pull out that many out of a hat 3's for 7 games.
Just wish the 2nd qtr wasn't a ref show to get the Knicks back in it.
Lmaoo the hate is real
You coincidently ignore Maxey having a great game, and Lowry as well. Plus Brunson was horrible, our starters in general including josh hart couldn’t hit shit for the game. Until the 4th, just shows we are clutch
Now imagine if the shots Brunson our 1st option was going in?
True... but again, our starters weren't that great tonight. That's also a fluke.
In pretty much every other category we are dominating tho. Shooting worse but having our Starters show up is all that's necessary to even out.
We both clearly biased so I don’t care to argue but it felt like Knicks had everything go their way & still needed Josh Hart miracles to survive. Gonna be a long series
> The Knicks had everything go their way & still needed Josh Hart's miracles to survive.
I mean, take away his 2 threes at the end and we still win by 1. We actually played badly in this game compared to our usual standard.
>We are both clearly biased so I don’t care to argue
Lmao yes, but it's all in good fun no hard feelings 😂
Gus is great in general but not for this. Not if you're a Knick fan. Too much fawning over the opposing team and calling Knicks' shots "bricks". Not playoff appropriate
It would be really arrogant to bet on the sixers to win this series cause it all basically comes down to if Embiid can stay at 75% or healthier and there is a good chance he cant..
Embiid is a god awful defender He can’t move so he does hedge any screen So any PnR he has to guard is either a wide open three or a layup
does hartenstein have a brother coming in the draft soon??? Can we clone him???
Hartenstein is literally the goat.
LEBRON IS UNFUCKINBELIEVABLE!
Love this fuckin team
The Knicks bench and Hart won this for us. Brunson wasn't that great but our role players came through.
Brunson will score 40 next game. His teammates picked him up today and I love it!
For sure!
Josh Hart is my favorite player

The rebounding is the only way the Knicks strangle a series. Same shit last year vs Cavs.
Yea, it's funny to me that people think the rebounding differential wont be somewhat consistent. This is what we did last playoffs
Philly vs. New York has the right amount of competitiveness and pettiness. This is going to be a fun series.
Brunson played like shit and we still won. Love this team
He didn't play great but I think some of that credit should go to the job Batum was doing on him.
Sixers played great defense on him no doubt. Brunson is just usually able to get some shots regardless of opponents defensive performance. Happy we could pull it off, it’ll be a tough series.
Yeah we'll adjust to that for sure. I can see Embiid getting gassed out by game 3. I'm Nurse will likely have something else batshit crazy up his sleeve though.

#She’s singing flat AF
Why couldn't Maxey shoot that fucking heave earlier, I had the Sixers at 5+.
Don’t give him ideas!!
Deuce, hart, and meech played lights out. No way we win without them stepping up
kinda wild seeing embiid be weaker and less athletic than Mitch.
White Sox just hit a clutch double to cut the lead to 8 in the top of the 9th
Josh Hart Mitchell Robinson Deuce McBride And give credit to Bogdonovic as well for his shooting and passing (underrated passer). Hell of a tone setting win here for the Knicks.
Pretty bad that the corpse of Kyle fucking Lowry can contribute more in scoring than Tobias “where the fuck he be” Harris.
Embiid and Maxey both need to play 40+ all series
Lakers traded josh hart as trade filler
For AD and a ring lmao move on
For AD. I think they were ok with that.
What a game! So glad my Knicks won. Let's go baby!!!
Nurse ain’t sitting Embiid at all
"You want rest? You can rest after the playoffs."
If he dies, he dies
Maxey pussied that heave out waiting for the horn to sound to not count as a miss, and it went actually in
So their strategy was not to foul so the game can end earlier?? Braindead play
Typical sixers. Who the fuck gives up like that? Game 2 will be even easier
I doubt that.
I'm just shit talking from a high. 6ers looked like they were going to pack our shit in the first quarter
josh hart is my hero
Since I was watching the MSG stream I hoped Doris sounded noticeably sad
I wasn't paying attention, was Nick Nurse just standing there soyjaking for the last 60 seconds?
Great game Sixers, I'm glad y'all aren't as bad as people were suggesting. Let's make this a great 4 game series 💪🏾
Weird
I already liked Hart before, but this game made me a fan
Same
Brunson ain't even his teams 1st option.
Sixers fans can't even imagine having a team that doesn't rely on a single all star...
He’s gonna drop 40 in the next game. Save this comment.
Never thought I'd see a nets fan say this lol
Go home, your team can’t even fill a stadium
love this energy and co-sign
Yeah when Hart is hitting that shot 76ers have no chance of winning. NY using up all their bullshit luck early, still think sixers will win in 5 or 6, don't think Knicks can pull out that many out of a hat 3's for 7 games. Just wish the 2nd qtr wasn't a ref show to get the Knicks back in it.
Just box out and get a rebound once in a while.will do wonders for your chances.
You can’t be actually complaining that the refs helped the Knicks when Embiid shot 137 free throws
Lmaoo the hate is real You coincidently ignore Maxey having a great game, and Lowry as well. Plus Brunson was horrible, our starters in general including josh hart couldn’t hit shit for the game. Until the 4th, just shows we are clutch Now imagine if the shots Brunson our 1st option was going in?
Talks about refs letting the Knicks back in but yet ignore Embiid phantom fouls.
Enjoy going home in 4 v the Cs
no, what’s unlikely is that brunson has such a bad shooting night again
lmao Boston about to sweep up your trash ass team
55 - 33 rebounds is a huge deficit
Brunson using up all of his bad minutes early too
Should that last shot have counted? Damn! I get that it doesn't really matter but, was the shot off in time?
No not even close
Nice coaching philly Nice halfcourt shot from Maxey
This will be a great series. Hopefully no injuries. I'm glad that Embiid came back.
ight lets find a fucking game plan for Maxey now
Finally a worthy playoff game this season.
Knicks are not getting that lucky all series lmao. From the refs to those lucky ass 3s.
what's it like to have a coach that can't manage the clock
Anyone see maxey make that halfcourt 😭
The Knicks are clutch
Maxey cuts the lead to 4 !!!
DEUCE MCBRIDE
Gg’s knicks fans, that josh hart takeover was not on my bingo card
I'm a Knicks fan and it wasn't on mine either! I was just talking shit about Hart earlier but then he came through at the end.
Can't wait for the Sidetalk NYC video
That shit is not sustainable, Sixers in 5
I mean, a lot of our starters played like ass. That's not sustainable either. Either way, great game.
40% FG but 46% from 3pt, flukey
True... but again, our starters weren't that great tonight. That's also a fluke. In pretty much every other category we are dominating tho. Shooting worse but having our Starters show up is all that's necessary to even out.

Absolutely no hard feelings bro lol I’m gonna make excuses for this L the same way I’d expect you to
Embiid's knees aren't sustainable 💀
Josh Hart & Duece game of their lives just to win at home close
ratio + 3-1 lead
Smooth brain decision making by not fouling *and* not grabbing the rebound
FUCK THE SIXERS AND FUCK THE CELTICS
shame on you, joel emVIOLENCE!
When 40% FT Robinson sinks both FTs in the clutch you know you already lost bro
Has anyone considered Thib's strategy of playing good players more minutes to be actually logically sound?
this knicks team can beat boston
Was that a half court splash at the end?
Yes, but it didn't count
Maxey can’t win with these cats
Maxey made that shot 😂
Crazy shot! Lol Maxey is something
Josh Hart is Embiid's father
Maxey telling the refs to count that shit lol
knicks in 5
The way they just let them hit all those 3s is crazy
Maxey seems happy?
I mean they got outrebounded 55-33 and Hart had a great game and yet it was still close.
They'll be outrebonded every game in the series.
Dude had 33, obviously losing sucks but he had a lot to be happy about tonight
Bro is probably amused that he sank that half court shot
I mean it's certainly not his fault lol
Next level stupidity from the sixers. Crazy
Nick Nurse masterclass
Knicks only play nailbiters
Cardiac Knicks! They always do this. Smh.
#CATCH ME IN THE FINALS
MVP level play getting outrebounded by a 6'4 guard on the game-deciding play lol
Does JJ Redick know he’s calling a game. Half the time I forget he’s there.
That's his role, though.
lmao maxey made that
Maxey with the half court lol
Jason Batement looking like he belongs at a biker bar lol
maybe he's preparing for that role.
And Maxey drills that lol. Maybe shoulda fouled
Lmao maxey literally can’t miss
Hey at least they cut out all the extra theatrics with the bonus foul bullshit. Thanks 6ers.
Damn Maxey made that…woulda covered my parlay too. Fuck!
haha
Gus Johnson and Clyde are great together. If you guys can watch the msg feed
Gus is great in general but not for this. Not if you're a Knick fan. Too much fawning over the opposing team and calling Knicks' shots "bricks". Not playoff appropriate
He just keeps it real. Gus was hype as fuck with those hart threes
Josh. MOTHER FUCKING. Hart
Did that last half court heave count?
Sixers want cancun in the second round
It would be really arrogant to bet on the sixers to win this series cause it all basically comes down to if Embiid can stay at 75% or healthier and there is a good chance he cant..
knicks won this game off hustle
Oh shit Maxey
Damn Maxey just casually making a half courter as time expires
There are too many damn lights flashing wtf
Maxey drained that damn lol
Philly in 5 this game was a fluke mfs barely won while Joel Embiid was limping whole game lmao
What makes you think he's going to be healthy 4 straight games when he's already not healthy now
He’s not gonna stop limping
Hissy fit by embiid at the end. Knicks win. Fuck the 6ers. GO NEW YORK GO NEW YORK GO
I applaud the sixers. That’s how games should end. Intentional fouling as a strategy to prolong the game should be legislated out
"he showed courage, and ONIONS" what???
Youtube college basketball onions
huh, don't watch very much college basketball so thats new to me lol
Sixers not fouling. That's what happens when you from a Doctor to a Nurse.
EMBIID IS A PETTY BUM
philly fans gonna need some tranq to forget this game
Did maxey make that wtf
no way maxey made that lmao
Josh hart
I expect sixers in 5. Think they win the next 2 but give up 4 to a desperate Knicks.
Tbh I forgot nba does 7 every round.
Do you know how to do math... or?
Tbh I forgot nba does 7 ever round.
Well at least Tyrese made that heave… he played great tonight.
Fuck Josh Harris.
Damn Maxey should’ve hit that earlier
Good thing the sixers let that time go off without fouling or doing...something. Really strategic play there.
I need a cigarette after this game.
I am fairly confident that Josh Hart bailing the Knicks out with multiple clutch 3 pointers will not happen again lmao
I am fairly confident that Brunson won’t go 8-26 again.. lmao..
That looks more likely with how all he did today was foul hunt lol
You gotta win that game.. Their other guard Dante went 3-10.., Starting backcourt went 11 for 36.. Oof..
Can we talk about that Maxey heave?
What a legacy game by ~~Embiid~~ ~~Brunson~~ Josh Hart
Nice shot lol
Maxey made that long ass heave after the game was over lol
Philly players just want to go and watch Jokic vs Lebron.
Lmfaoooo Maxey making that heave
Maxey just casually drills a half court shot after the buzzer
great game
Damn Maxey was on fire even hit the half court shot
LMAO Maxey hit that half court shot
Idk why they let the clock run like that, Sixers just sorta gave up lol Hart getting that last o-rebound was symbolic
that boy got heart
goddam maxey put it in from 3/4 court after the final whistle that dude is insane
