    Dame gets some notice, but it doesn’t seem like he gets anywhere near the hate that Embiid gets.

    Lillard is currently leading the league in Percentage of points from FTs (33.6%) and FTA/FGM (1.32).

    An interesting comparison to Maxey and Embiid who went 28-32 on FTA

    It’s on the Blazers for losing that game, but man the refs didn’t do us any favors. One play in particular Grant got straight up tackled by Portis, yet there was no foul. Dame took off on a fast break and missed a layup, but was gifted free throws. It was so stark it was jarring.

      Yeah we made a boat load of bone headed mistakes down the stretch but some of these calls were straight nasty work.

    76ers fan posting this is hilarious.

    You know your franchise player is a 7’ freak who flops and throws himself to the ground every chance he gets? He’s literally torn his own teammates ACL flopping. The man flops when he commits flagrant fouls.

    Dame is an unabashed foul baiter but Giannis mostly earns his and teams will literally intentionally foul him because of his FT%

      Just thought I’d call attention to the same thing the Sixers were maligned for only two days ago. It seems some people getting calls is seen as exposing defenses while with the Sixers and Embiid it’s “foul baiting”

        People are criticising Embiid because he -wants- to go to the line, so he plays to go to the line, even if he is capable to do the same stuff without it.

        Giannis really -doesnt want- to go to the line, yet defences know the only real way to stop him is to make him go to the line.

    Not only did Giannis and Dane combine for 32 FT attempts, the Bucks as a team combined for 32 ft attempts
