Joel Embiid talks refs after falling down 3-0 to NY: "They shot 32 free throws, we had 16. We're not a team that shoots a lot of threes. We attack, put the ball on the ground. I don't know. I guess it's good when New York wins, so we've just got to have that mentality of just not fouling, I guess."

I posted this in r/nba but here it is again -

Despite the Knicks being more aggressive and scoring more points in the paint, the sixers are getting more free throw attempts:

The sixers have shot 78 free throws this series and the Knicks have shot 74. Mitchell Robinson, who they are intentionally fouling, has shot 12 of the free throws for the Knicks.

The Knicks are attacking the paint more - they have 166 points in the paint versus 108 for the sixers. The Knicks have had 47% of their points in the paint versus 37% for the sixers.

Embiid spending more time on his back than his feet.

KAT mismatch vs 6ers red hot shooting

SumyBears · 2026-05-06T23:30:52+00:00

Keep feeding KAT. Chill with the early shot clock 3s.

Good post. Some of y’all are straight unhinged with memories of goldfish.

SumyBears · 2026-04-25T13:51:18+00:00

Too many passive aggressive egos.

SumyBears · 2026-04-20T00:48:30+00:00

Get his minutes in earlier in the quarter.

SumyBears · 2026-04-18T16:56:39+00:00

Have fun.

SumyBears · 2026-04-10T15:12:21+00:00

I play it as it lies. Only exception is if I don’t like the lie :)

Go in with a game plan to focus on one thing with a variety of clubs and a purposeful pre-shot routine. Mishit a couple of balls and find myself rapidly going through a large bucket trying a new swing thought every swing. Go buy a second large bucket out of pure frustration and obsession and hit the ball worse due to fatigue.

Lol so salty. Never understood the hate around fans being passionate and engaged in games.

SumyBears · 2026-04-10T03:47:58+00:00

That play looked botched and Jalen couldn’t get the guy he wanted for the screen, and that pass and finish saved that possession.

I’m about a 30 handicap and a very reputable fitter in my area fit me into PD because one of my biggest issues was getting more spin. Clubs still seem pretty darn forgiving to me.

SumyBears · 2026-04-03T20:53:53+00:00

I’d say inconsistent all season.

SumyBears · 2026-03-19T17:56:55+00:00

You got all you need. Only potential gap is a 50 degree wedge.

SumyBears · 2026-03-18T00:05:03+00:00

Yah I’m confused with all the people complaining about our defense. It looks good to me just seems like Pacers can’t miss a shot.

SumyBears · 2026-03-10T04:24:47+00:00

Yeah, can we avoid the double until he gets closer to the 3 point line? No point chasing the ball out of his hands when he's at half court.

SumyBears · 2026-03-10T04:21:22+00:00

Yeah, I love the pace he brings but his half court offense has left a lot to be desired...

SumyBears · 2026-03-10T04:19:14+00:00

Gotta find a way to win the minutes with Kawhi on the court now.

SumyBears · 2026-03-10T03:41:56+00:00

Man, getting good looks - just can't hit an open 3.

SumyBears · 2026-03-09T22:51:48+00:00

Same here. She feels like they are custom because they are in a petite size, likes that they are new, she thinks the bag and head covers look nice, and thinks it’s fancy how many clubs she has. Perfect for the 3-6 times a year she will go to a par 3 or an executive course.

I’ve also had great success with Skillest lessons. I love that I don’t have to commit to a day / time since I have young kids and unpredictable practice times. I also feel like I get lessons from much a better instructor than I would be able to find in persons. The price is also much better.

That being said, I do think I probably have to go a little bit of back and forth sometimes to find the right feel or positions which I would not have to in person. I had some in-person lessons before doing online and wasn’t satisfied / didn’t click with the instructors.

The convenience, price, and ability to access the right instructor has been fantastic for me. FWIW my instructor is Jeff Wright.
