2024 Playoffs Eastern Conference First Round: (2) New York Knicks vs (7) Philadelphia 76ers - The Danse Macabre

[TomRicardo]

Who is going to come in and help Embiid and Maxey past the hump?

Joker, Tatum, Ant, SGA, Curry?

Like I am not sure LeBron could pull this train over the line. Luka would be a hilarious disaster.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Foot nowhere near the line--nice call ref!

 

[Cellar-Door]

LOL- Mitchell Robinson fouling on a 3, up 6 with 25 seconds left.... WHY!

 

[Devizier]

JFC

 

[Cellar-Door]

Wow that was an epic Knicks choke job

 

[TomRicardo]

Hey can someone tell @HomeRunBaker and his buddy Van Gundy that Brunson just shot after a whistle and no one trucked him over

 

[lovegtm]

4 point play chance, wow. Reverse game 2 miracle?

 

[osori]

Wow.

 

[BigSoxFan]

Wow that was an epic Knicks choke job

HOLY SCHNIKES

 

[bigq]

Wow this game is nuts.

 

[riboflav]

Maxey is the guy. Stop going to Embiid. Get Maxey downhill.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Wow---that is a great shot from Maxey. 7 points in the last 30ish seconds!

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Maxey from Delilahs

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Need a gif of dazed Jon Stewart.

 

[MyDaughterLovesTomGordon]

What a shot by Maxey. My word.

 

[TomRicardo]

LOL- Mitchell Robinson fouling on a 3, up 6 with 25 seconds left.... WHY!

To be fair Maxey launched into him and then hit a three Harden style.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Also hillarious that I commented how Maxey has struggled to make an impact and he decided.... "what if I just took all the 3s and made them?" which is kind of exactly what he has to do to be a big time playoff threat

 

[ragnarok725]

Holy shit Maxey.

Embiid looked ready to catch the bus the whole fourth quarter. Maxey is dragging the whole squad.

 

[lovegtm]

To be fair Maxey launched into him and then hit a three Harden style.

I mean, I guess. Can't ever ever ever ever get caught on a pumpfake in that spot.

[TomRicardo]

It will be a miracle if Maxey doesn't foul out in this OT

 

[Cellar-Door]

Knicks are just gonna spam PnR with Embiid until either they win or he passes out

 

[PedroKsBambino]

It's absurd there was no foul there against Maxey

 

[Cellar-Door]

Maxey just randomly unconscious from 3

 

[TomRicardo]

Are they going to take away the Embiid bail out call?

 

[Ed Hillel]

Wait, what the fuck happened, I turned the Bruins on because this was over.

 

[BigSoxFan]

Embiid looks awful

 

[Cellar-Door]

Wait, what the fuck happened, I turned the Bruins on because this was over.

Maxey hit a 3 and got fouled, Knicks missed more FTs, Maxey hit 40 footer... OT

 

[Ed Hillel]

Embiid looks like Swamp Thing out there.

 

[wade boggs chicken dinner]

Maxey: 49.33; Harris = 47; and Embiid at 45:30.

I guess PHI has been told that Embiid can't hurt himself further but I'm not sure I buy that.

But the more games the better - for BOS.

 

[Cellar-Door]

This is starting to snowball on the Knicks

 

[Ed Hillel]

Embiid limping now

 

[nattysez]

The Knicks are a fun story, but you cannot win with only one guy willing to shoot.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

DENIED!

[Ed Hillel]

Did Embiid just get a flagrant?

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Embiid is battling out there.

 

[nattysez]

Embiid with another "accidental" flagrant.

 

[TomRicardo]

Embiid is going to get that eye before the night is out.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Embiid is going to get that eye before the night is out.

Eye for an eye

 

[ragnarok725]

Embiid with a pretty brazen face rake. Standard Embiid things these days.

 

[HowBoutDemSox]

Embiid is battling out there.

By “battling” do you mean he keeps hitting people in the head?

 

[wade boggs chicken dinner]

Joel: "The dude's head looks like a ball - can you blame me?"

 

[Ed Hillel]

This is such a costly flagrant by Embiid

 

[lovegtm]

Maxey: 49.33; Harris = 47; and Embiid at 45:30.

I guess PHI has been told that Embiid can't hurt himself further but I'm not sure I buy that.

But the more games the better - for BOS.

Re the bolded: I know we've said some of these Miami series were wars for Boston the past couple years, but this is a WAR. No one is going to have limbs left if it goes 6 or 7.

I think my choice of language works in all instances

 

[ragnarok725]

The Knicks are a fun story, but you cannot win with only one guy willing to shoot.

They're going to win this series and get the Pacers in round two.

 

[Cellar-Door]

Knicks..... YGTMYFT, this should have been over

 

[TomRicardo]

I think my choice of language works in all instances

Shot.

Brunson is going to have a hell of a shiner after this.

 

[mikeford]

Thats not a flagrant to me in the playoffs, cmon now
