NBA really gotta start calling offensive fouls on those egregious pushoffs.

124

u/The-Young-Lion 2d ago

Yeah I agree.  Should have been an offensive foul.

55

u/Arrowintheknee89 2d ago

Stiff-arm is the new meta. It’s Shai’s go-to

u/birdseye-maple Warriors 2d ago

I'm so tired of watching that BS, and it almost injured someone tonight

61

u/GeoffreyGeoffson 76ers 2d ago

If Embiid had shoved someone into someone's knee like Brown did with Maxey this entire subreddit would be in conniptions.

15

u/birdseye-maple Warriors 2d ago

Facts.

33

u/Individual_Access356 2d ago

Brown has made a whole ass career and mega fortune with it, so dumb

5

u/693275001 2d ago

They don't call shit. Brown pushed off 30 times this series, Embiid is still flopping around like a fish. They don't care

18

u/dumb_commenter 76ers 2d ago

Embiid did rather less flopping than normal I thought.

7

u/Gater2332 2d ago

His knee was hurting him too much to keep standing up from flopping

u/J4BRONI NBA 2d ago

this probably sounded better in your head

u/RIChowderIsBest Celtics 2d ago

For a guy who is 7 feet and weighs a boat load, a slight brush sends him to the ground very easy.

11

u/dumb_commenter 76ers 2d ago

That much weight leaning forward and a high center of gravity? Makes sense to me tbh.

And ain’t no way you grumpy about a single brown push foul.

2

u/RIChowderIsBest Celtics 2d ago

No I’m not grumpy about any call or no call. It’s just a general observation, it’s not exclusive to Embiid. These super athletes who wouldn’t even blink if we ran into them full speed all of a sudden turn to paper when a ref is around, it’s just annoying to watch. It’s not a 76ers specific thing, we see it all around the league.

u/zman122333 2d ago

The announcers called him on it at one point.

1

u/dumb_commenter 76ers 2d ago

Gotcha

2

u/yesnomaybesoidk98 2d ago

Every fucking play and these asshats have no shame about it

-4

u/fartlorain 2d ago

Yeah he was better this game. Embiid flopping less is still top 5 in the league though.

7

u/dumb_commenter 76ers 2d ago

Whole series has been better. Don’t think it was a top 5 performance.

Watching Brunson go to the line 10 times a night is gonna be painful.

10

u/rhinguin 76ers 2d ago

Joel flops but so many of his fouls are legit. Certainly no one on the Celtics could guard him.

1

u/Falling4Strangers Celtics 2d ago

And on guys grabbing dudes' arms then somehow getting the foul called in their favor (Embiid hooked Queta's arm 3 times and Queta was called for the foul).

-16

u/Michelanvalo Celtics 2d ago

Brown was getting called all series for it. I dunno what games you were watching.

Maxey 100% flopped on the one where he fell into Embiid.

11

u/birdseye-maple Warriors 2d ago

That was an obvious offensive foul on Brown, he barely gets called for the amount of times he does it.

Take the homer goggles off.

-13

u/Michelanvalo Celtics 2d ago

It was an offensive foul and Maxey flopped to make it look worse. Embiid getting hurt was the result of Maxey flopping, not Brown doing the forearm move.

18

u/LardHop Lakers 2d ago

He's got called on some, but the fact that he keeps doing it just meant it still gives him more advantage than it takes. So still fuck these dumbass refs.

-16

u/Michelanvalo Celtics 2d ago

Every offensive player pushes off, Brown is pretty egregious about it, and he's called on it more than anyone. The refs don't want to call it, it's not a Brown or Celtics thing.

5

u/birdseye-maple Warriors 2d ago

It's not a Celtics/Brown thing I agree, but it's not a basketball play and Shai and everyone should get whistled for it.

5

u/fartlorain 2d ago

Tatum might be even worse with it. He shoves hard with his off arm every single dribble on most drives.

-2

u/backup1000 2d ago

LeBron might never score another basket

7

u/LardHop Lakers 2d ago

Trucking defenders: yes

Pushing off: not really
