Sad they didn't get to play the Pacers....apparently our old man James Johnson is on some kind of Hong Kong Phoey stuff and would go all Street Fighter 2 Turbo on his butt.
Let's not forget what Embiid did to Scottie Barnes and Danny Green in that same playoff run. "Accidentally" stepped on Scottie's foot and essentially taking him out of the series. Sounds familiar to what he did to Josh Hart. Then flopping against Miami, only for him to fall onto Danny Green's leg and tearing his ACL and ending his career. Embiid is a flopper and a dirty player and he even knows it.
Dude is like an actual baby. Whining, flailing his limbs around and grabbing at the big kids legs when he doesn’t get his way. Really disappointing tbh
Joel is the definition of a player that wants to see what he can get away with and it's a serious problem. That spin move he does where he drives into the lane at full speed and connects his elbow into the defenders face I've seen him do to Jarrett Allen and Rudy Gobert twice. The Jarrett Allen one was a flagrant, the first rudy face check got him free throws while the second rudy one was a regular offensive foul and here lies the real problem, the inconsistency towards how referees interpret his dangerous behaviour only encourages him. For a player with more flagrants then Draymond green he somehow has more freedom to cause harm to opposing players and the refs are for some reason allowing him if they're not rewarding him with free throws.
If this was a Knick team in the 90s we may have seen a few fights. It's a good thing it wasn't because the Knicks couldn't afford to loose anymore players. Joel was playing on one good knee and he was trying to do whatever he could so that the Knicks couldn't get the upper hand and it backfired. I commend the Knicks for acting like true professionals and keeping their composure for the most part because Joel definitely got away with more than a few plays that were dirty!
The fact that the Knicks survived the dirty tactics from the Sixers/Embid and don't have to deal with the dirty tactics from the HEAT who are also eliminated gives me hope for the Knicks. Nothing but soft defensive teams are left in front of them who they can easily match up against.... LLLLEZZZ GO!!🗽🗽
Oh you could make this video twice as long and still have not used replies of his dirty plays. He is doing everything to be disliked. Whining, throwing teammates under the bus, being dirty. That's not grown man behaviour. Nobody likes that
joel has the same amount of flagrants as draymond but has played 480 smtg matches less. btw keep these videos coming for some reason this wasnt in my reccomended immediately after ur upload
How is it he gets away with this. The league should fine him. And Stephen A Smith should be calling the office about him. Not talking about he never knew Embiid to be dirty.......really
The fact that there were more Knick fans in their own house, during the playoffs, that the owner had to buy tickets that weren't sold because Joel has the charisma of wood,.. There you have it... Process that...
Sanctioned behavior by the NBA, the referees, and glossed over by the “expert” TV talking heads and analysts who want to stay in the good graces of the league. Basically disgusting and dangerous.
Happy that my favorite basketball team showed him the door after 6 games. Cause that play against Robinson by grabbing onto his leg like that disgusted me. That should’ve had him ejected.
Dirty player who gets away with everything, and gets way too many FTs from flopping and being a baby. Until he grows up, he will NEVER go past the second round. Overhyped, one-dimensional player who's constantly poorly conditioned and doesn't even have the stamina to last four quarters - let alone a playoff series. Overrated.
@GetGooderatBasketball it's true, his attitude and body language is so bad that's it's hilarious 😂 nobody has ever made it deep into the playoffs pulling funny faces the way he does. His lack of emotional control is like Demarcus Cousins but at least everybody knew Boogie was an emotional weirdo whereas Embiid fanbois just make excuses for him 😂
Embid should have been trown out for intentionally hurting another player but did not ridiculously. The league needs to protect their players from this kind of actions from any player great or not immediately. The league needs to watch this deliberate action and suspend embid or any players doing harm to another player for at least 30 games in order to stop this .
Do you guys feel better now? I firmly believe the Knicks will make it to the finals. Only to lose in five games. Almost. But hey, not a bad playoff run since 2013.
They gave this guy an MVP Award he doesn't even play and when he does half his points come from flopping flailing n really bad acting the give him like 15 ft attempts a game rediculous never even been out of the 2nd round been 11 years of the process
My thoughts: Joel Embiid deserves every single injury and instance of bad luck that has ever happened to him. He didn't deserve MVP and he knows it. That's why he's now even worse than he used to be. He knows his run is over and he will remain eternally unfinished and blemished by bad karma bs
Everyone knows he’s dirty. The nba players should be smarter frankly, don’t bounce back up after he does something. Stay on the ground for 5 minutes yelling in pain like a soccer player does. Refs will be forced to start giving more flagrant and kicking him out.
Woah people, you forget that Embiid has had some awfully terrible injuries recently in the last few years.I believe he is trying to keep players from hurting him seriously. He may be a little overreactive, but I think he's genuinely interested in staying out of hospitals and rehab centers.
