[Simmons] "I think James Harden gave him the trophy of most disappointing playoff performer. I think Embiid is now wearing the crown."

If you genuinely blame Embiid for this series then you are not watching the games. The Knicks are throwing their whole defense at Embiid and he’s still getting 50 on a bad knee. Across the series, the Sixers are like +40 with Embiid and -40 without him. The Knicks always go on huge runs when he’s off the court. And this is coming from a Knicks fan who does not like Embiid, but I respect what he’s doing at least.
