Honestly sixers should just shut down Embid before his knee gets worse....

Players complaining about fouls not being called and what not, just play through them. We know what playoff basketball is like, they say the game shouldn't be decided by the whistles anyway.
 
There will always be one side to complain. Whether a foul is called or not shouldn't determine the outcome of a game. We understand that Maxey didn't secure the ball and may have been fouled by a Knick attempting to strip it. Even if we consider those facts, why aren't we discussing the rest of the play? Devo missed, Isaiah out-rebounded the Sixers, and the ball found its way back to Devo for an open shot. Yet there's no accountability!

Even after Maxey was blocked, your last play was for Embiid to take a 3? While a foul might have contributed to what happened, it wasn't the sole reason the game ended as it did. I was actually screaming for a foul before a shot attempt. If Embiid had made that shot, I'm certain that would have been the topic.
