Okay, refs, take note. Embiid just fell on his own. His leg is fucked. You can't trust his falls anymore.
This is a Marcus Smart game and series.
Unsurprisingly, Celtics have no trouble keeping up and sticking with their man in the Embiid offense.

Most NBA broadcasts don't.. if you start paying attention they often play replays of a play or two before instead of showing a replay of a foul... especially if it's controversial.
TNT did at least show the Embiid flop tho.
I really hate watching him play. All the talent in the world but he wants to grift and take shortcuts. Him and Harden are a match made in hell
Not exactly a finely tuned machine but I feel like they are trying to find their groove again and this is a good way to tread water.
Not by himself though. I think there actually might be something there. It's a brace, so it must be limiting his movement...that means it is more difficult to make adjustments for balance, especially if he's not used to it.
They got a little casual with the ball toward the end after taking really good care of it for the whole quarter, but it's great to turn an almost turnover into three.
Feels a bit like the refs are keeping them in the game at the moment. Embiid scored, but I think the five points before that were FTs.
Foul merchants back at it again, but I like the intensity from the C's much more. Need DWhite and Tatum to get going.
It's the worst type of flopping.. it wouldn't be nearly as infuriating if he didn't get a foul call almost every single time.
How can Embid and a harden be so coordinated to play in the NBA yet fall for no reason at all? It really is a mystery of science.
It's a different type of obnoxious.. but at least he doesn't flop nearly as much as Harden or Embiid. Only thing he flops on are trying to get landing spot threes.
Probably not, but I’m content to let them settle for the three as long as they are bricking them. May need to change course if they start mailing them, but until then…
