The Sixers need to find ways to limit the New York Knicks’ offensive rebounding after they grabbed 23 in Saturday night's Game 1.
Joel Embiid’s career is more important than these playoffs. The Sixers’ Game 1 loss should show him that. “How many minutes was he off the floor ? Eleven? Probably most of that plus-minus that you’re talking about happened in about four minutes at the start of the second quarter.’”The reserve forward finished with three points on 1-for-4 shooting — all three-pointers — along with one assist and a block in 25:53. The Sixers were outscored by 20 points when he played. But on a night the Sixers desperately needed shooting, Batum didn’t get enough attempts.
“Now I’ve got to go find out why and what all the problems were. I’m sure the list is long. I’m sure there’s a lot of things. It isn’t going to be just, ‘Hey, block out.’ Maybe it is; I may be wrong, but I think there’s probably more than that.”Mitchell Robinson led the Knicks with seven offensive rebounds. Isaiah Hartenstein and All-Star point guard Jalen Brunson each had five. Josh Hart had four.
