Philadelphia lost 101-104 to the Knicks, trailing 2-0. Embiid had a mental breakdown after the game, and he yelled at the referee for the black whistle and exploding foul language. thought that Philadelphia should have led 2-0, and for the reporter's interview, Embiid lowered his head and covered his face all over the court, crying in frustration. It's a dangerous time for Embiid, as Philadelphia has failed to complete a comeback from 2-0 down 14 times in franchise history. And the Knicks also play tougher than Philadelphia, and they are crazy about rebounding.
Thibodeau is an iron-blooded coach, and their style of play is to go on the confrontation, relying on the collective to fight for rebounds and fight. That is, the Knicks are just going to drag you into the mud and roll, and if you are cowardly, scared, you will lose. The Knicks play with momentum, and Embiid is the MVP of the regular season. But in the face of the fierce Harden and Miro, Embiid looked a little frightened all over the court. Then, as a leader, he was frustrated like this after the game, and the famous Barkley was very dissatisfied.
Barkley believes that Embiid is the leader of Philadelphia, and the first thing he needs to do is to be steady, and he needs to give his teammates confidence, not go down first.
"What are you doing Embiid? Now you have to keep your head up, you're the leader of the team, you're the player everybody in Philadelphia expects a lot, you're one of the best players in the world," Barkley said. You're looking ugly right now, and as the leader of the team, you can't put your head down now, you need to be tough. ”
was killed by Leonard in 19, and Embiid cried and asked his girlfriend for comfort. Philadelphia was beaten by the Green Army last year, and Embiid laughed after the game. Now God has given Embiid a good opportunity to avoid the Celtics, who he fears the most, and Horford, who can suppress his bloodline. But now Embiid's performance is disappointing, the Knicks are not as hard as Philadelphia, and if Embiid plays well, this could be his most promising year to reach the Eastern Conference Finals.
Sometimes it can't be helped, it's fate. Philadelphia also can't avoid the curse of Harden, who has had a magical spell so far, and as long as Harden leaves, the team will fall off a cliff without him. And the result is the same, when Harden left the Rockets, a large number of fans shouted fluently, what is the fastest rebuilding team of the Rockets, relying on Wall and Wood Cousins to lead the playoffs, but the Rockets have been rotten for 3 years.
Then Harden left the Nets, and when there was Harden, Durant and Irving swept the Green Army 4-1, and after Harden left, the Nets were swept 4-0 by the Green Army in the playoffs. At that time, Nets fans were also fluent, and it was better to attack without Harden. Harden also proved in a barrage of abuse that a team really can't do without him. Then Philadelphia also went under the same spell as the Nets and Rockets, and when Harden left, it was smooth, and the three major forwards were rich, and it was not a loss to send Harden away.
Now, without Harden Philadelphia mixed up to play in the play-offs, what level is the Knicks? and Philadelphia played the Raptors in '22, and Philadelphia fell behind 0-2. Although Harden may seem inconspicuous at times, he is certainly not as fierce as the Rockets used to be, and he is now old. But Harden has always been a player of positive value, as long as he is on the court, he can give the ball to the sweet spot of Durant and Embiid, and then he has a clear mind when it comes to cracking the opponent's defense. This year, Harden's record with the Clippers has improved a lot, Leonard and George's attendance has increased significantly, and Leonard is about to return, Harden has won the first game for the Clippers, just like he single-handedly took a win from Boston last year.
