76ers with Embiid back, but without Maxey, defeated the Thunder, who were without their top two players, SGA and JDub.
Came down to the final plays. There was a BS foul on Chet toward the end that sent Embiid to the line for two FTs. Embiid invaded Chet's space and basically lowered his shoulder into him, but since he's Embiid and Chet's a rookie, Embiid of course got the call even though Daigneault rightfully challenged it. The TNT crew were surprised the call was upheld as well, but again, Chet's a rookie, and Embiid always gets those BS calls, so...eh. Is what it is.
On the next possession, OKC still could have hit a three to put it into OT, but sharpshooter Isaiah Joe came up short twice even after he got another shot from an OReb. So the Thunder could have done it, but Isaiah Joe -- as good a shooter as he is -- just isn't clutch big time SGA or JDub.
