Its getting tougher for me to watch the NBA these days. I can't stand flopping and the dumb refs fall for it every single time. Big 280lb guy pushes people around and flexes when he scores plus the foul. Every other time he is flopping around like a fish and the refs call like 90% of them. As long as James and Joel are on the 76ers I will never watch that team play again.

Embid is the worst today — the double standard he is provided is absurd and I don’t get it.
Previous to Embid it was Harden.
NBA needs to completely do away with the swing thru fouls and let defenders get their hands into the offense without all the bullshit swing thru fouls.
Speaking of absurd - remember when J Grant walked into garden and shot what 25 free throws —— what was going on that game?
things are getting chippy in this series. Dray Stomping, Embid nut-kicking, Grimes mouth-cracking, attempted-assassination of Jules...
i'm worried the refs might now over-react and one of guys gets a couple of early fouls against him for doing what they let the Cavs do to us

Why don’t you look up the rules for Flagrant foul point system that leads up to suspension, and how it changes for playoffs instead.
Perhaps share it with others rather than indict Silver for not having a policy in place.
If not, your contribution is worthless.

Another of your idiot prognostications gone awry.
Draymond suspended for a game.
I get excited when you reply twice to my post!

Embiid apparently has the balance and center of gravity of a 6'11'' 80 yr. old man with two bad knees, surgically repaired hips, and vertigo.

This is from one game.
What a great game between Suns and Clippers.
Booker/Durant Vs. Westbrook.
What a shame Leonard and George are out.
I’m not looking past the Cavs… but it sure is looking like we’re on a collision course with the Heat.

Also have to wonder if there is anything going on with his legs right now. He doesn't seem to move and position them to keep his balance as often as he needs to. Knees and ankles take a pounding if you do it the right way.
Are things breaking our way? We have had horrendous luck over the years. Now with Giannis banged up, Embid too, we match up well with Boston. Am I crazy? But can we win this thing?

My fan philosophy:
Low expectations means you'll never be disappointed, and always happy when your expectations are proven wrong.

Very sad to see this happen to Oladipo again.
Would be wild if the Heat beat the Bucks with no Herro or Oladipo. Giannis probably gonna be rushed back for the next game.

Best case is Miami and Bucks go 7 and batter themselves and Knicks can close out clev sooner than later.
Jaylen shoes protesting Naismith did not invent the game? Misspelled it?
Bad Karma.
One game at a time. Back to Clev on Wednesday.
Brunson been doing this shit his whole life.
