When you lose a game in the NBA, you obviously are overtaken with emotion, in the playoffs, that feeling only intensifies. We saw this reach a boiling point for reigning league MVP Joel Embiid after the Game 4 loss to the Knicks. In an interview with the media, Embiid voiced his anger and displeasure with Knick fans and their ability to show up and take over Wells Fargo Arena. It was another added excuse for the oft-injured big man who is looking at another first round playoff exit with the 76ers. The Knicks have the chance to close out Embiid tonight at home and given Embiid’s comments, it's clear he’s looking at how to deflect blame versus take accountability… Troy Mahabir breaks all of this down!

The New York Knicks are having an amazing postseason run as they hold a 3-1 series lead over the 76ers, with a possible closeout game at MSG tomorrow. While the Knicks have found a way to win amid all of the injuries during the regular season, they might have to replicate that same success in the postseason down a few players. Mitchell Robinson unfortunately missed yesterday’s game 4 with an ankle issue. While Bojan Bogdanovic has been dealing with a significant wrist injury before the playoffs began. He recently received an MRI on that wrist which shows significant damage and if that wasn’t bad enough, he’s now dealing with a major injury to his left foot… Troy Mahabir breaks all of this down!

The Knicks have taken a 3-1 series lead against the Philadelphia 76ers after a legendary game 4 performance against the 76ers. Jalen Brunson came out and had the game of his life, putting the Knicks on his back and creating history. However, you can go back to a specific Embiid hard foul that caused Brunson to get angry and thus, torch the Sixers for 47 points! Jalen Brunson wasn't the only reason for the massive game 4 victory, OG Anunoby had his best game as a Knick. both offensively and defensively. Josh Hart, though limited in offense, was a monster on the boards. Brunson was spectacular but the Knick role players were just as important in getting this pivotal victory against the 76ers.

We also hear from 76ers player Kelly Oubre Jr., who addresses Knick fans directly for their comments about Joel Embiid after game 3.

One thing you can say about this New York Knicks team for certain is that they are resilient, they are going to push through any adversity, and they stick up for one another. That was on full display in game 3 when the Knicks lost Mitchell Robinson after a hard foul by Joel Embiid. The reigning MVP of the league thought it would be perfectly fine to land on Mitchell Robinson's surgically repaired ankle and grab him by his leg as he's in the air trying to dunk. We can review different things and look at certain plays, but it's absolutely clear: Joel Embiid is a dirty player. Donte DiVincenzo believes it, other NBA insiders believe it, other NBA players believe it, and I believe it too. What's the point of being great if you have to be dirty to do it?
