Trusting the process can apparently be very painful.
Joel Embiid has been under scrutiny throughout the Philadelphia 76ers’ playoff series against the New York Knicks, and a recent video compilation underscores the reasons for the criticism.
During Game 4, which took place at Wells Fargo Arena in Philadelphia, Embiid was involved in a controversial moment when he stepped on Josh Hart’s leg. Although it didn’t seem intentional, fans are increasingly skeptical of Embiid’s actions, given his history in this series.
A compilation video by KnicksMuse highlights several instances where Embiid was either penalized for a hard foul or seemed to get away with one throughout the series against the Knicks.

This pattern of behavior has even prompted a Knicks legend to suggest that the Knicks need to assertively respond to the reigning NBA MVP.
In Game 4, the Knicks managed to limit Embiid, holding him to 7-for-19 shooting, and secured a 97-92 win to take a 3-1 lead in the series. Embiid’s frustration has been apparent, both on the court against his opponents and off the court with 76ers fans, highlighting the pressure and intensity of the playoff environment.
