Series Thread: 1st round 2) Knicks vs 7) Sixers

[The Q]

“I mean, honestly — I know this is, like, cliché or whatever — but I'm trying to flush the game,” he said. “I just … I know what we have to do in 48 hours. And we can't let this roll over. It’s a whole new game. And our season's back on the line again.”

Alpha Maxey

There's not a better story in the whole league than Tyrese Maxey.

Kid is going to carry this team.

I can name at least 40

The league overstepped but it wasn't some attempt to sabotage the Sixers.

Nut always goes for the most extreme position.

Funny, part of the league's plan was to have the colangelos operate twitter accounts shitting on Joel Embiid.

Bet you didn't expect those unconventional warfare tactics to be used against a franchise by a league. Bet it surprised you. That kind of behavior wasn't beneath them, that is their behavior.

Ok list them and explain how each one is greater.

The latter part is jus the cheating protected sixers arent eliminated

Especially after that blatant maxey travel and clearly not a foul on Robinson (and an illegal screen by embiid)

Try again. You are incoherent. Get to your list...

Not if your going to ignore the second part

"Not a foul on Robinson" means you didn't watch it. There are plenty of replays. Go catch one.

Brunson was fouled at the end of regulation

Far more than that one

Clearly a foul. A stupid, braindead foul that cost them the game.

Yes, but that doesn't excuse the other. Don't rely on officials to make that call.

Nope. Awesome defense from Batum. He's got his hands deep in Brunson's mind though. He's seeing Batum's hands in his sleep.

He hits him with the body and knocks him into the 3rd row while still airborn


Easy call


Unlike the made up one on Robinson who lands before any contact and stays Vertical

Yeah Q didn't watch it. When it comes to the Sixers he only posts dumb shit that no basketball fan will benefit from reading.

I'm as anti philly as it comes, but I can't ignore logic. That was a foul. Plain and simple. Did they need to call it? I don't fucking know, officials confuse me all the time, but that was a foul. Let him shoot and you win the game.

You know @The Q is on the ropes when he goes traveling and illegal screen. You can whistle one of those on every possession in the playoffs the way Q adjudicates those two rules.

yet you can't argue the points i made about it.

because they're factually accurate.

Then that’s on Brunson for not grifting hard enough. He’s the best grifter in the league. Give a Jay Wright flopper a Garden whistle and you get some scary hours for grifting.

If Brunson doesn’t get a call that’s his fault for not acting hard enough.

this one is a clear foul.

he does what you claim robinson did.

Batum just runs into him while hes airborn and knocks him into the damn 3rd row.

that was the easiest call of the night.
