This is a really bad look for the league. Gives it a WWE feel.

We miss David Stern. Dude wasn’t afraid to suspend stars. Adam Silver is a coward. Wish we could boycott this upcoming game but we love our Knicks too much.

The day Mark Cuban sold his franchise to Las Vegas was the official end of the NBA.
If the owners had a problem with that they could have stopped it, but they don't. They're in bed with the gambling industry now and they're loving it.
It's a shame that coaches and players who've dedicated their life to their craft are being disrespected by monied interests, but at the end of the day does anyone think coaches being paid $10M a year and players earning $10-50M a year are going to risk their personal pay days to take a stand against it? Probably not
The NBA is dunzo. There isn't any integrity left to salvage. The league is administered by gangsters.
This season is the last time I'll dedicate myself to every game as a loyalist. Bless the Knicks. It ain't their fault, but Denmark is rotten and it can't be saved.

You do you feel about missing Randle generally in these playoffs? I go back and forth, but ultimately, I think we'd be in a much better position if we had him ... and that bodes well for the future.
Much better. We'd have a true second option and OG could play more free safety. Either Julius would just abuse Harris or Brunson would be free to eat. Only downside I see is Hart is playing out of his mind and he'd play less.
One more reason to play small against Embiitch brigade... Anunoby, Randle, Hart (- Deuce -) Donte, Brunson

Adam Silver looks like a used condom and is just as useful as one. POS should be prosecuted for fixing games.

Didn't Embiid forearm shiver someone in the 1st quarter of Game 3? OG?

And this is why I will always love Charles Oakley.

So that's the reason why the refs let the Sixers do what they wanted, while putting our players at risk of serious injuries.

Knicks Legend Charles Oakley Blasts Joel Embiid: 'I Probably Would Have Smacked Him'
Joel Embiid was issued a flagrant one during Wednesday's chippy Game 3 between the Philadelphia 76ers and New York Knicks after he grabbed Mitchell Robinson's leg while on the floor.
A scuffle ensued, with players like Donte DiVincenzo and OG Anunoby getting in Embiid's face, only for the superstar big man to respond, "What are you going to do?"
"I probably would have smacked him," Knicks' legend Charles Oakley told Barbara Barker of Newsday regarding the exchange. "You can't let him send that kind of message. If he had done something like that [when Oakley played], he wouldn't have gotten away with it. David Robinson, when he played, he knew what he could get away with. They [bullies] pick a fight they think they are going to win."
The Knicks, in general, were not happy with Embiid's flagrant foul on Robinson.
"It was dirty," DiVincenzo told reporters. "It was dirty."
"I mean, we're just happy Mitch didn't get a serious injury on that," Josh Hart added. "I'm all for tough fouls, tough playoff fouls, but that's something that can put a guy out for a significant amount of time. So we're lucky he didn't get seriously hurt during that time."
The series has been physical and intense, and both sides have legitimate grievances with how its been officiated thus far. The Knicks are currently up in the series 2-1 in large part because a blatant foul against Tyrese Maxey at the end of Game 2 was missed, an error the NBA has since acknowledged.
Game 4 on Sunday should be another classic. Embiid bullied the Knicks in Game 3, to the tune of 50 points. Oakley is hoping his former team doesn't let the defending MVP get away with it again.
So that's the reason why the refs let the Sixers do what they wanted, while putting our players at risk of serious injuries.
