    ben simmons and giannis are like carbon copies of each other. Giannis is a bit taller, but the myth that giannis gets downhill without a brush screen in the paint is mostly false

    Dude should’ve been ejected for that elbow...not cool. Embiid has always seemed like a dick.

    Wow that’s a flagrant one? How is that equal to what Embiid did? Didn’t seem like it

    sixers need to win this game CONVINCINGLY if they want their confidence back. A shaky win will not do it.

    If Allen woulda stayed on the ground for a couple of min and played it up, Embid woulda been ejected.

    This is good for the 76ers.. They're arrogant for no reason.. They haven't proven ****... They need a coach that will get in their millennial asses!

    That was actually Shaq's signature move. He did this a lot to Mutombo 20 years ago, rules have changed.

    That's why Shaq's defending the guy! I get that. I also think Embiid is an a**hole.

    If this wasn't a fragnant 2 then a player must actually die on the court for the refs to call it.

    Great Game so far.

    I was going to say, Reggie in his player days was only focused on shooting, neglected parts of an overall game.

    Now he probably has his favorites as a commentator.

    Sixers blowing it open. When Embiid leveled that kid, he should have stayed on the floor and gathered himself together. Instead, being 20, he hopped up, probably wanting to show his coach that he was OK. A good guy who hasn't learned the finer points of selling a foul that really shouldn't have needed selling as a flagrant 2, but obviously did. That's the NBA we've got today. You need to take an acting class. ;-)

    Brooklyn badly needs a run.
