It’s actually pretty messed up what the Nets tried to do to Brooklyn. No one in Brooklyn wanted that

Read on Twitter

But you already know that Adam Silver was carefully watching the officiating crew and Embiid.

As far as an NBA darling, those days just went out the window after his antics in game 3.

That's a flagrant-1. Clear as day.

I'll bet the league doesn't even review it.

Someone tweet this to TNT, I wanna watch Charles rage.

Should really be 4-0. But the refs had to gift you a game

You mean the refs gifted you guys a game. I know that **** hurts your soul. Deep down you it's 2-2.

all of this talking and you didn't notice the difference in Embiids play today? He was on his best behavior expect for one play where he put his elbow and arm on Brunson's face. Outside of that...he was asking Knick players if they were ok,etc...he was very caring today...

You know why? Adam Silver was present and why do you think he was present? I'll tell you...He was present because he couldnt suspend the MVP for his bush league behavior...

All season long the Knicks play from behind and win. Nothing new- Dirtbiid go his calls but got outshined by Big body Brunson.
End of story.

Adam Silver being in attendance at this game cracks me up. It was a smart move on his part.

I saw that. Some people think it's taking things too far. I think it's harmless fun.

Joel embiid surpassed draymond green's dirtiness levels in just 2 games. Ridiculous.

These guys really have more purchasing power than the good people of Philly?

Yes, nobody cares about the Nets. Just cause a new team moved to NYC doesn't mean Brooklyn is gonna stop cheering for their Knicks.

For those that don't know the Nets have more fans from back when they were the NJ Nets than they do fans in Brooklyn....

NYC & the entire state of NY will ALWAYS be a Knicks town... not even the Yankees, Giants or Rangers could ever supplant them

I think they had a brief chance to grab a lot of market share if they had built a sustainable contender with Durant and the Knicks continued to sputter out. Of course, that experiment turned into the Benny Hill Show while the Knicks put something sustainable into place. Now they're a Jersey institution in the middle of Knicks town.

Too bad so sad.

I never seen a fanbase takeover an arena.

Philly was literally playing in MSG today

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

They had the blueprint laid out literally & figuratively (pun intended) ... they had the star branding by Jay/ROC the fact they ain't ran with it once Durant/Kyrie got there speaks volumes

I think there was even more Knicks fans in the arena from the cheers inside as I was there too. So pissed we lost but props to Brunson.

Not true at all. There are plenty of Nets fans in BK.

Obviously Knicks are poppin off so everyone is bandwagoning.

Im Coming Home · Post #5458 » by **Im Coming Home** » Mon Apr 29, 2024 12:19 am

Just watched back the Embiid elbow to Brunson, after Brunson says something, he pretends he doesn't even know what Brunson is talking about. If you're gonna play dirty at least own up to that ish man, just like Nurse pretending he didn't see the dirty plays in game 3 in the post game.

Lol we are just a few years removed from Brooklyn chants taking over MSG. Stay humble.

Stannis · Post #5460 » by **Stannis** » Mon Apr 29, 2024 12:22 am

MSG tickets are expensive, especially PO tickets.

So when these Knick fans can afford to go to other arenas, you bet your a$$ they are gonna make themselves heard.

Who wins?
