Stephen A. feels bad for Joel Embiid & believes Lakers are DONE in series vs. Nuggets 👀 | Get Up 

agreed and knicks can say the same thing..if Julius Randle was healthy....blah blah blah...if's are pointless...you play with what and who you have and the better team wins end of story...i could easily say if Randle is healthy i think this series is a sweep or easily Knicks in 5 but it's not the case

deadass since 2019 this man has consistently been injured in the post season. at a certain point, his body is literally not built for the playoffs

​@@yeatdagoat173 I don't know if I go that far, and I generally dislike Embiid and his diva mentality. He needs to stop trying to draw fouls by hitting the hardwood, that's were a vast majority of injuries in basketball happen. The hardwood has no give, it's concrete underneath. I hope he keeps learning from Jokic. Jokic doesn't hit the ground much because he knows it will hurt him, last night in the first half he hit the wood and I think all Nuggets fans freaked out when he was limping after. You can work officials without risking severe injury always flopping, that's a lesson Embiid should learn. It's cool to score 35 a night, but if you can't sustain it maybe scoring 30 a night is a better idea so you're healthy for the playoffs and especially Finals where you cab give everything for a ring and immortality in the NBA world.

agreed. and when he is healthy, he flops non stop. i just wached a 2min compilation of him falling down.

Literally just posted this on the other video. Its so annoying and pointless. Imagine if the nba players said that it would sound like such a cop out. "They won but im hurt so next time ill be healthy"

No question

Randle is mid

Wym ? They clearly don’t need Randle

Randle would ruin things.

@@Noliestold-np6qi not brunson and his allen iverson efficiency

As a diehard Sixers fan, salute to you for the respect.

Dude is flopping. No respect

Cry baby embiid

Dude is a cry baby when he doesn’t win MVP over guys more deserving. 😂

@@topsykretts2264 He seems to be a cry baby in general. But he can definitely ball.

4 brooms to make it extemely clear

​@@aaronx3572Obviously. Have to have one four each game.

🤣💯

Don't worry y'all going home in next round

Ben Simmons bozo

Hey at least they won the in season tournament😂

Sad times for my team how embarrassing

As a laker fan, this comment made me chuckle lol

@masonr5677 Nothing to be sad about. They may struggle against Denver but least your team competing. I'm a Nets fan. If that was us, we'd probably lose by 40+ 🤣

Not that bad. LeBron can devote more time and energy towards this upcoming Olympics.

He’s a 7’2 beast, he definitely gets hacked a lot Is what it is but he shouldn’t be crying for fouls

My guy Brunson gets the same type of calls embiid get what are u getting at dude was bumping into the defender getting calls

@@piplonf8591 brunson has arguably the worst whistle in the league considering he's top 5 mvp candidate

Really rich coming from the league's premier free-throw merchant

BRUNSON shot more free throws u Dope.

Embiid NEVER is at 100% so it doesn't matter

@@JoelGarcia-lu3twthey still could have won both games

​@@dapedatathey didnt lol

@@dapedata Could have but didn’t because Embiid isn’t clutch and never has been

Knicks fans don't get to ahead of your selves

Embiid's efficiency was trash

No that's not it. How about play some defense. Look at the plus minus

@@tham2279 how are you to win the game without scoring? Defense yes I agree was the problem.. but look at the numbers .. every starter on the Knicks got more than 10 points …

@@MoTownMoe how are you going win the game by not playing d.

What did u expect a team that employs Kelly oubre is bound to fail

Josh Hart for the Knicks is not too shabby as well.

@@stevenveganightowl12 big facts! He’s everything I wish Tobias was for the sixers

Say the quiet part out loud!!! Sixers are cursed and will be the worst franchise ever. Horrible management of players. They literally drafted Jayson Tatum 😂

​@@DGKMcfly01worst franchise ever? 🤣...ok guy

Exactly!!! 💯

And then you same folks would call him out for being soft and not playing. Embiid can't win with you people. Smh

@@touregarrett Who said that? time span in Pro. Sports are short you have to take advantage not them taking advantage of you. need to play smart and selfish.

Fr 76ers never had a chance

He ain’t foul him. It was a challenge bro. It quite literally impossible to have a foul overturned on a challenge where they can replay and play it slow 50 times. You coping. Tell the truth for once bro. If Stephen A can, you can as well.

@@shabazz360 sure whatever u say I guess he didn't grab his shoulder then i imagined that SMH philly sports fans, eagles online never holds defensive never commits pass interference either huh?

@@terrellcowell6361 he didn’t, he made contact with the ball. Once again. It was a challenge. Nearly impossible to make a mistake on a challenge.

⁠@@shabazz360fouls are subjective they used the words marginal contact if that doesn’t make it clear idk what will

Maxey was definitely fouled but here's the thing. It NEVER works out when you put your faith in the Refs. The 76ers did this too themselves. Shouldn't be in that position to begin with.

lol this guy said eastern conference finals in first round wow. Stephen A please shut up!!!!

Facts

Remember it was ESPN pushing that racist MVP narrative against Jokic last season.

PurpleMonkeyDishwasher88: It was Perk, not ESPN. 1 man is not a whole network

I saw that also Stephen A is a fake Knicks fan puppet

He claimed he was nervous lol...he was def too calm for me though

@@t.sincerely270 all fans were nervous but showed excitement once the 3 was made lmao

@@mrvx1867 😂

He’s a critic

Nope, he was just much better

Embiid is succeeding. Look at his numbers in these games. Him and Maxey. The problem is the rest of the team.

And Tom needs to push the ball more. And run the small ball line up with Sims and precious achiu. It has been very successful with precious achiu at the 5 and put Sims at his original position at the 4.he was on a 15 game stretch.

The officiating has always been crappy and often one-sided. Though, I thought the calls evened out in that game. Lowry's foul shouldn't have been overturned and maybe Maxey was fouled, but he pushed off earlier which is more of a foul.

lol I’d say Jokic is not Malone

1 championship out of 20+ years coaching. Gtfoh. #LakerNation we’ll be back sooner than later.

@t_will348: 1st Championship in Denver’s history, which I imagine is hard when free agents aren’t running to Denver like they have historically been going to Los Angeles…

​@@marckusduverger9776 fr

​@@t_will348When LeBron retires, Lakers will become post MJ Bulls, a 14th seed team

Whats there to say about a blow out?

Their series is irrelevant

What do you want them to say right now? They the #1 overall team playing the worse team in the playoffs (statistically) who is without their #1 player, and they've played 1 game so far. Far more important matters to cover

Yup.....

Cry about it some more buddy. Free throws were 23-22 in favor of the Knicks, pretty much dead even. How about the clear foul on Devo earlier in the game that got overturned for some reason? How about Lowry missing one of his free throws right before the Knicks came back? How about Embiid having ZERO rebounds the entire second half. How about Maxey pushing off of Hart seconds before he was "fouled". How about Hartenstein outhustling the sixers and grabbing that clutch offensive rebound? Your team got out worked and choked! You sixer fans are big babies just like Embiid. Can't even answer questions while looking up because he's gonna cry! Nick Nurse complaining about not getting a time out when Maxey didn't have possession!

@@victorrosa7517that’s crazy, you guys are finally relevant again after years and you can’t handle yourself… let’s see how far you go 😁

@bulletheat4u846 "can't handle" myself when I'm simply correcting this sore loser sixers fan? And I don't care how far they go because I'm proud to be a fan of this team! They play with heart and grit, they put in 100% effort every night on offense and defense. Embiid and Nick Nurse wanna whine about the refs and act like they didn't get out hustled and straight up choked! Fitting for the cesspool of a city that is Philadelphia! I can actually respect Maxey because he made zero excuses. Bottom line is knicks have a young core and they're gonna be good for a long time, doesn't matter what they do this year because morons like you will continue to underrate them.

Hart literally got pushed and that wasn't called either. 76ers had numerous opportunities to lock the game up and didn't. They robbed themselves. Like they always do.

The refs let them play down the stretch. It wasn't one sided.

Exactly. His efficiency is the only thing that's not good yet.

The refs admitted that he got fouled at least twice, Brunson grabbed Maxey's jerseys, not to mention Nick Nurses time out being ignored. Nick's got lucky

He definitely got fouled it happened earlier as well. Not even a Sixer fan

Yup, that was a "no-foul" aka mild incidental contact that refs don't call too often, especially in late-game playoffs games.

I would rather believe Stephen A Smith who was inches away. And why would he lie about it when we know he's a Knicks fan. Not a Sixers fans.

this

Giannis coming back only makes it easier for the Knicks, because that means the Bucks will beat the pacers most likely, giving the Knicks an easier route

Your Philadelphia 76EXCUSES 💥 👏👏

Giannis will return from injury, there’s no if.

@@bigtaskat-hand4742 I'm not even a Sixers fan, and even I know this is part of the plan.

@@Eagles522 Don't count your chickens until they hatch. The Bucks may not be as glamorous on paper as the Knicks and Pacers, but as long as Giannis is healthy, they have a shot especially considering that the Knicks won't have Julius Randle. To me, if its Bucks vs Knicks in Round 2, thats going 7.

He's a fake Knicks fan

Yeap

Embiid was better last season and would deserve mvp this season but injury ruined it

he's 38, surely you could find a good defender with a similar skillset and size who's not the same age as LeBron

He's going to win his 3rd mvp already

The Knicks have fans all over the world we will boost ratings

STFU with that dum @zz comment !!! NY is the big market !!!

Its the opposite. The NBA wanted the Knicks last night. It was incredibly obvious.

How does someone flop into the playoffs when he missed a lot of time with a torn meniscus in his knee? And guess what? The Knicks still can't stop him even on one leg. He gets fouled on every trip down the floor because those little boys named Isaiah Hartenstein and Mitchell Robinson can't guard him, contain him, or handle him.

@@wook1990average idiot from Philadelphia 🤡 your city is a dump

@@slightreflections2921 How many games did Mr Glass Embiid play this season again? lol

@@Nostalgia9478 but u said street clothes? how? he is playing while hurt

Guys, let's all just assume he doesn't really know what that means.

Embiid’s injuries are way more significant than AD’s…and always have been

1st round this year

LMAO bc we weren’t

he hit two insane contested back to back threes before that. as someone also in the jordan goat boat, you either didn’t watch the game or don’t know ball. curry has missed wide open clutch threes in the playoffs. jordan definitely has too lol

Jordan shot 29% & 19 % from 3 his last 2 years- Jordan would have bricked it far worse than LBJ did. Then again, Jordan wouldnt even be in the playoffs unless Scottie was next to him. Has there ever been a player whose success relied on another player more than MJ needing Pippen to win anything of significance?

That was a fatigue shot

@@cdgates1 Jordan played with the flu ……

respectfully, jordan would have also missed that shot since he shoots 29% for his career from 3 point range without a shortened 3 point line and also shot 19% from 3 point range in his last season with the wizards.😂😂
