    As a 6ers fan it depends on embiid, but I will say this, embiid had 29 and Maxey had a huge game when Brunson didn’t and we still lost. This is a fantastic match up to me but sixers bench really has to step up and that’s if embiid is even remotely healthy. Even if embiid is 100% and we know he is not, it would still be 50/50 to me

    I might not agree with Perk all the time but he was right about Brunson. SAS isn’t a diehard Knicks fan by any means

    I got the Knicks going up 2-0 on the Sixers after tonight. Embiid is Humpty Dumpty, he easily breaks.

    I don't like Stephen A as a Knicks fan. I feel like he's bad luck tbh. And he fair weather honestly.
    We need to sweep Philly to send a message. Not to the league but to themselves and the fans that we ready for whoever whenever

    Knicks got this. On Saturday they dominated the boards and had five players score double digits 🗽
