I don’t understand basketball. Why would Jalen play up on Batum?

Why do the Knicks get these ticky tack fouls and not the Sixers?

Too much dribbling and not much of ball movement.

Defense was absolutely horrid this game. Switching up way too many times yielding our smallest guy on Embid or sometimes even nobody on him. Do better Thibs!

Refs absolutely ruined this game. Every time I look up the sixers are at the line.

We just just need 2 minutes of the Knicks toughest defense, then score every time down and we can get this.

We needed to make Embiid a driver every time. He didn’t expend enough energy on offense and he’s resting on defense too.


Pissed we didn't go at him after he had 3 early fouls

Sixers have gotten plenty of questionable calls. I can't deal with their whining when we get a call
