We don't blame Simmons for the game 7 stunt. We blame Simmons for that ENTIRE series.

Also, Embiid gets nearly as many FT attempts per game in the playoffs as he does in the reg season. The pace slows down, so there are naturally fewer possessions, but he still gets there nearly the same rate. That whole "he won't get those calls in the playoffs" belief is such a myth lol.

He also had who as head coach in the past? Nick Nurse actually runs a real offense with off ball movement. Not just ISO and stand around watching.


Never brought up free throws. Defense gets tougher in the playoffs so naturally Embiid expects more calls. Truth is they swallow the whistle more in the playoffs and it hasn’t been great for Embiids efficiency, he has one of the biggest PER dips from regular season to playoffs we’ve ever seen…

The fact that he has Nurse and Maxey now should mean if he loses again he better take ownership of his own faults (conditioning) and improve on it

He gets to the line less in the playoffs from greater minutes.

It’s definitely not a myth that the doesn’t get as many calls in the post season.

Dude forgets he can't play 30 minutes a night against the Pistons in the playoffs consistently

Can't duck good teams on the road either

Minutes =/= possessions

Its a statistical fact that the game is entirely different in the playoffs. Slower pace, fewer posessions, fewer shot attempts. Not only that but teams shoot worse in the playoffs as well.

So yes, fewer FTA is to be expected as everyone shoots fewer. He still gets to the line at a very similar rate, per posession. An ELITE rate in the playoffs.It's not like the calls just stop, he still can't be guarded 1 on 1 consistently 😆

He averaged 10 FTA per game in the playoffs last season vs Boston in that 7 game series too. So you claiming this nonsense is WILD lol

Man... Seeing Poole back, how much everybody loves him, fans appreciate him.. 2022 was special man & couldn't have been done without him..

After the game GP2 escorted him to the Warriors locker room, Security happy and dapping him up... Draymond being suspended from this game actually is the reason the vibes today happened...


What could have been..


A lot of good coming from this.. Pause... Kuminga developing amazingly, TJD playing amazing and will get the minutes he deserves, just more athletically gifted than Looney.. Klay playing amazing... The vibes boys. the vibes.
