Joel Embiid's comments generated a reaction from a pair of Knicks players this week.
Heading into Thursday’s Game 3, the Philadelphia 76ers find themselves down 2-0 to the New York Knicks . Despite how things have gone thus far, Joel Embiid remains confident in his team turning things around.
Since Embiid made these remarks, multiple Knicks players were asked their thoughts on the comment. First up was Jalen Brunson, who isn’t putting much stock into what was said. The All-Star guard also feels it doesn’t need to be used as a source of added motivation.. “It’s the playoffs, so if you need any more ammunition now then I don’t know if you’re in the right business.”
