To be fair he was guarded by OG and Precious. We got dogs on this team.

Hartenstein went out with 5 fouls with just under 2 minutes left in the 3rd. Embiid had 24 points and was 9/10 from the line. From that point on, OG was the primary defender on Embiid. He finished the game 0-5 and 3/4 from the line. He put the clamps on him and Embiid just fell apart.

The craziest thing about it is that OG likely never would have been defending Embiid down the stretch if Mitchell Robinson was healthy. Ironically, he missed tonights games because Embiid flopped into his ankles. Just a crazy turn of events that actually won us this game (plus Brunson dominating).

Obviously Knicks are poppin off so everyone is bandwagoning.

Out of all major NY sports they have the smallest fanbase and smallest ratio vs the other team in their sport, come on son.

Nets missed their chance. In 20 there were a ton of fans and the Knicks were bad.

When you went to Knicks games for the new few years there were a ton of fans.

But obviously they screwed it all up and we are back to square one.

Nah, they’re not from here. If you’re from here the Knicks are the only option, you could like some combo of giants/jets, isles/rangers, Yankees/mets but everyone was a Knicks fan.

Just concentrate on getting your socks back on for now. Knicks have assets and good, early prime players. We're not going anywhere for awhile.

All the olds heads are definitely Knicks fans.

A lot of the younger crowd didn't **** with the Knicks because they have sucked for so long. Not everyone.

But plenty of people like the Nets in BK. I saw a TON of Nets gear the past few years. Idk why you guys always pretend like its nobody.

You told them to “hold the L” and “get over it” while justifying not one, not two, but three dirty plays in that game. The Knicks fans took it on the chin and put up with the annoying smugness for two straight days. Meanwhile today the 76ers (mostly Embiid) choke and y’all are nowhere to be seen to take your kicks (eyeamota the exception). Just like your fraudulent franchise player, it would appear yall soft af.

I said back then karma was going to get Embitch.

They supported KD and Kyrie, not the Nets, Idk why you pretend like its not a possibility.

Thats not even true. Youre just making stuff up now lol.

KD doesn't have a huge fanbase that follows him from team team. And Kyrie does have some fans but its not a ton.

They were not all player fans.

i'd say you won because the two best players on the floor today were both Knicks. One was Brunson and the other was OG, who completely shut down a guy who - much as I dislike him – had been basically unstoppable so far in the series. someone posted Embiid's 4th quarter stats and it was like 0-5 with 7 turnovers or something ridiculous. that is OG doing OG things.

That's the VERY DEFINITION of bandwagon. Leave when they suck, follow when they're good. 'Capturing the hearts' or whatever is just another way of saying people are following the team because they're winning.
