Yeah, bottom of the barrel might be an understatement if that's possible.

So dangerous and reckless. This could well have landed on Embiid's knee or leg.

Well another cheap play we all (or just me? lol) previously missed, look at 0:30-0:32 mark, just before he trips Mitchell Robinson he tries to kick/trip Anunoby first... He's clearly on a mission...


Used to like Raptors team but that team suffered a lot in the playoffs from the dirty plays against 76ers and Embiid.

Embiid had intend to harm when he did that. And he succeeded in injuring Robinson. He didn't face any consequences for his actions either. It's unbeliavable, really.


The worst part is he says he did it to protect his legs! When it was obviously because he'd just thrown a tantrum on the other end yelling at Zac Zarver about a no call. He then tries to body Anunoby and gets steamrolled, hits the floor and takes out his frustration on whoever is around him like a 2 year old.
Complete scum and needs AT LEAST a one game ban.

He's dirty and reckless and 280 pounds. A dangerous combination, to be sure.

Wow thanks for posting all those other videos of other games. Didn't realize he had done it to so many players already. Embitch is really a scumbag without any ifs or buts. The dirtiest player in the league by far. Trying to intentionally injure players---if you can't beat them, injure them. Dirty trashcan.

Anyone watching the sequence knew he was lying like that little bitch that he is. He is not only the dirtiest player in the league, he is also dumb as rocks. A dangerous combination for the rest of the league.

Absolutely a dirty player. And, moreover, the one that wants to dish but is going to run to his mommy crying as soon as he gets some of it back.

Artest was a crazy ass dirty player, but at least he was prepared to get the same as he gave. Bowen too. Embiid is just a whiny entitled brat that is a danger to other players. Same category as Green.

League has already established that you just get a flagrant 1 and stay in the game for something like that. I guess the Knicks have a new move they can try. This dude is the only player in the league since Bruce Bowen that clearly goes out there trying to injure players.

Embiid's biggest mistake was doing this against the Knicks in the playoffs. It could get swept under the rug and forgotten against most teams, but the amazing Knicks fanbase will not allow that to happen. This will probably follow Embiid for the rest of his career.

23 flagrants in 483 games.

The much criticised and hated Draymond Green? 21 in 970 games.

In the playoffs it holds true compared to Draymond as well.

It’s about time Embiid got his due as one of the dirtiest players in the NBA.

Embiid is dirty, but Dray should have had a lot more…

Good lord call the waaahmbulance. You guys are grown men whining about a bush league play.

Literally all of you would be ecstatic if he were on your team.

That one was an extremely dangerous play and if he was not a star he almost certainly gets thrown out. He's had his fair share of them, so the distinction isn't a reach.

That said, he ain't Draymond. Don't care what the total number of flagrants say when 95% of those wouldn't have been flagrants in any other era.

You should had a record-low ZERO posts if you were man enough to fulfill a bet. But instead, we all are embarrassed by your responses to losing a bet (check out my signature, LOL).

Everyone should just ignore him. That way he only talking to himself lol.

But yeah, Embiid has the superstar reputation with the dirty label. And it's a dangerous combination because the NBA is obviously scared to do the right thing by punishing Embiid for his actions.

Which demonstrates that the league is soft.
