knicks media upset now
If anybody fouled Embiid like that no one would say anything 100%. Just a foul keep it going. You all hate him for anything. Man ain't even allowed to shoot fts anymore according to everyone.
So I just made a number of parlays with the Denver Nuggets winning the championship and either the Miami Heat or Philadelphia 76ers winning the East. If the Boston Celtics gets upset, it’s going to pay big.
Heat are currently 55-1 to win the East while the Sixers are 12-1. The parlays includes my Derby longshots and the payouts are anywhere from $1000-$4000 from $1 bets. I covered like 10 horses + a repeat of last year’s NBA Finals with Nuggets the champions and Heat winning the East.
My longshots –
Honor Marie +1600
Resilience +2000
Stronghold +2500
My top 10 + Denver/Miami
1. Sierra Leone pays $1K
2. Stronghold pays $4.6K
3. Honor Marie pays $3.7K
4. Resilience pays $3K
5. Fierceness pays $1K
6. Catching Freedom pays $1.8K
7. Just Steel pays $4.6K
8. Forever Young pays $1.6K
9. Dornoch pays $2.3K
10. Just A Touch pays $3K
Endlessly and Encino are ones I decided not to wager on. I’m hoping the Derby winner is within that 10 horses I listed, but knowing my bad luck, watch it won’t be. There are some other bets involving Stronghold + which NBA team wins next out for their Game 3 or which teams wins their First Round matchup. Minimum payout is $1000.
The last bet, I decided to NOT include Sierra Leone. He’s my pick but I have a feeling he comes in 3rd. It’s that Zandon/Angel of Empire feeling I’m getting from him. So on Derby Day, I’m going to put a $60 show on him. That should pay $150 if it’s $5×30. Sierra Leone is my instant cash.
I really don’t understand why there’s no hype with Stronghold? Sierra Leone, Catching Freedom, and Honor Marie are coming from way out of it. Stronghold will be well placed. And did you see Honor Marie’s bullet workout? He’s looking ready to go!
While Sierra Leone is my Derby horse, most of my parlays does NOT involve him because I can’t take +300 on a horse I’m not sure he gets there on time. And the pace may NOT be brutal compared to the last two. Most of my parlays are centered around Stronghold at 25-1 and Honor Marie at 16-1. Then Resilience at 20-1.
Stronghold is looking like the most slept on Santa Anita Derby winner of recent times thanks to that 89 Beyer. I’ve only spent $37. I’ll spend another $60 cash on Derby Day with Sierra Leone to show. I feel cursed since Maximum Security was disqualified in 2019.
I watch different ‘cappers on YouTube picking win candidates. There’s like a few of them while horses like Stronghold should be used for the bottom. F that! It’s anybody’s race since Rich Strike won it. And Mage wasn’t exactly on a lot of people’s top 5 last year with his 94 BSF and 3 starts (0 as a 2YO). Hindsight is always 20/20. Hence, why Mage was 15-1 and not among the top 5 betting choices and this was after Forte was scratched.
I’ve seen and gambled on nearly 30 Derbies and it’s never that simple. People can look like a smartass at this moment but wait when next Saturday’s race is over. Lots of torn tickets and kicking themselves for not picking or including that one particular horse. So many different ways losing this race but there’s only one way to win and that’s finishing 1st.
Honor Marie is looking live, folks. Has one of the best pedigrees to win it and already owns a win at Churchill. Actually, two wins. He broke his maiden there and won a graded stakes race. Both he and Stronghold have wins at CD. That’s always a plus in a race like this.
Sixers are winning the First Round. First time in NBA history that a 7th seed defeated a 2nd seed. Brunson is the Knicks’ best player. How tall is he again? It’s like my Clippers having a short guy being the best player all those years and we never got far with CP3.
I’m personally rooting for the Knicks but I think Sixers are the better team with the best player. You can argue Maxey is as good as Brunson. Sixers were screwed in Game 2. They should be 2-1 right now and not 1-2. They will win the next three and end the series in 6 in Philly.
If Miami pulls the upset over this soft, fraudulent Celtics team like they did last season, the ECF will be Miami vs. Philly. Crazy. The 7th seed vs. 8th seed in the ECF who met for a play-in. Miami isn’t losing to Cleveland or Orlando and Philly isn’t losing to Indiana or Milwaukee.
Embiid is arguably the 2nd best player in the NBA behind Jokic. Philly wouldn’t be 7th hadn’t Embiid get hurt for a few months. MVP vs. MVP. Denver over Miami in 5 or Philly in 6. In the end, Denver repeats regardless who comes out of the East. The East remains a joke. Denver will have a harder time against Minnesota.
Somebody finally mentioned they play on mitchell robinson. Joel should have gotten ejected. And he should be suspended for game four since he was not ejected. That won't happen though.
Stop saying he plays on one legs. That’s exactly what he wants the narrative to be. He was limoung throughout the first 2 games but in this game he looked like he had never gotten injured. What does that tell you? He is just finding excuses like always.
Embiid didnt want to get landed on. So much crying. Knicks fans act like they are victims over EVERYTHING.
Definitely don't want him in any trade now… He can stay in philly or go somewhere else…
Sixers need 4 straight
Knicks now are more motivated than ever, and will win the series in 6 games.
We reaffirmed last night what the league really cares about. They care about their stars and thats why Embiid was not thrown out. Robinson is now likely out for the series and that will probably be enough to flip the script for the sixers now to win this series, the league couldn't afford for this series to be a sweep for ratings. Embiid was reckless and dirty, and yet he himself had more free throws than the Kinicks. The most biased league in North American sports. I don't want to hear about player safety anymore. They protected the superstar and they are probably getting off on the fact that he had 50 while "hurt" and "overcoming adversity".
I love Joel EMBIID after the BS the Knicks tried in the first two game sir was time for Philly to get some revenge
No question Embiid’s cheap shots lead to Robinson’s injury. The league needs to enforce the rules and suspend him.
Embiid just became the first player EVER to score at least 50 in a playoff game on fewer than 20 points – in a absolute must win back against the wall game, on one leg, with half his face paralyzed – clutch…. Haters
Sixers are the better team. Even in their losses the first two games of the series they looked like the better team. Sun will shine thru
My faith in true basketball fans and players is renewed. Even if your not a knicks fan…even they are agreeing that the 76ers were playing dirty
When Joel pulled Robinson down, rob should have fell on embid’s leg hard.
Donte been dirty the whole series so Joel returned the favor and they been hacking him
Loving all the cry baby Knicks fans. Decades of irrelevance will do that to you.
No talking to much about how dirty he was the whole game? hahaha
Right in the face of jalen brunson.not Isaiah.
Karma gonna get Joel Embiid next game
He gets away with a lot of dangerous fouls, and after the whistle bulls****t.
Not good at all…
He's a very good player indeed, but the bulls****t he does with the fouls are horrible. Refs shouldn't be soft to check him. Real talk
If you don't want to get punched in the mouth than guard your grill you whiney Knicks fans.
Honestly, as a Knick fan, this doesn't worry me. The 6ers won with Joel having to score 50 points and Jelm finally found his groove. They tried to bury us but didn't and we kept fighting until the end. If it takes 50 points per game from Embiid for them to win, I love our chances. Hoping Mitch is okay!
Joel played DIRTY last night. That’s the only way they could win this game with him hurt like this.
His knee limits him so it’s free-throws and pick and pop 3s. He was cooking in the second half frfr
Why is no one talking about what EMBID DID to MITCH!!! That was the most dirty play ever!! If it was done to Embid yall would go CRaZY!
He should be suspended!! Draymond Green gets suspension for anything but Embid tried to take his legs out from under him while he was on floor. That is DANGEROUS!!! Draymond would’ve got banned for
That. And Embid says he has PtSD from Kuminga falling on his knees so disrespectful to veterans n real trauma victims. Dude gets paid 30 mil a year to play a game. A 7 footer taking another 7 footer legs. Come on. That’s ridiculous.
ESPN if y’all don’t cover that, yall are WRONG!
Game looked visually iffy. Embiid is bad for the game overall.
knicks in 5 Philly got their win
“What a game” sure if you enjoy free throws
He should be the first one to know how it feels to be injured. The fck is he doing to MRob.
I dont care which team wins in this series but if players play like that i hope they lose.
NY fans go away please
keep saying he scored 50 how about 21 free throws. refs cheated!
I’ve never seen Knicks fans cry so much they going around looking for YouTube videos just to cry. 50 burger on y’all head. Sixers in 6.
Fun fact Draymond has 21 flagrant fouls in 979 games. Embiid has 23 flagrant fouls in 489 games. Look up the stat. Embiid is baby Draymond. Best believe we gonna be targeting that surgerically repaired knee meniscus next game.
As far as I’m concerned there should be no more feeling bad for this guy. All I see is an injury prone crybaby that plays dirty
For a fan base (New York) that claims to be so tough and literally won the first 2 games off being dirty and getting foul calls, to now complain? Just warms my heart. Let’s not forget that MSG erupted in applause when embiid injured himself in game 1. F**k you New York fans. I’m right down the I-95 if you want smoke
Easy to win when the Refs let's Embiid get away with every call.
Robinson is Knicks let him go.
Knicks fans are so mad
Knicks need to grow some nutz, can't let that thug punk your player like that.
Knicks cheer Embiid going down in game one, but then get self righteous over the flagrant
As a Knicks fan we not gonna cry we gonna take it to the chin and win game 4! embid is Soft and dirty player Let's go New York Let's keep him crying
Everybody plays dirty , it’s Joel so now everybody wants to point out “bad” or “no calls” fix the league before you fix the players that’s including the refs
Flop Embiid 21 free throws and a dirty play
Yeah they gonna win game 4 if the refs give it to them again. Dirty cry baby embid knows these. Thats why he is the best at “bitching”
Brunson runs full speed in front of a defender, stops, and leans back into a defender with a fadeway shot. Is that not his game? Stars always try to draw fouls. Embiid 13-19, 4-4 from three. Take away all his FTs points made, and a one-legged, one-eyed man still dropped over 30 points on the Knicks Don't lose this series NY
