PHILADELPHIA — Joel Embiid will be facing the Knicks in New York this weekend, not Playoff Jimmy.
Embiid and the 76ers are the obstacle for the Knicks in the first playoff series between the teams since 1989. They secured a 105-104 victory over Jimmy Butler and the Heat in the Eastern Conference play-in round on Wednesday after coming back from a 14-point deficit. This win advanced them to a first-round series starting Saturday at the Garden.
“I think they’re for real,” Sixers coach Nick Nurse commented on the Knicks. “I think they’re really good. I think they’re fast. I think they can shoot. I think they hit the glass. They can guard you.

“I think they’ve earned that [second] seed. They’ve played really well and beaten a lot of good teams. So we have our work to do these next couple of days to get ready for them.”
Embiid contributed 23 points and 15 rebounds despite being questionable for the game due to a knee injury that kept him out for over two months before his return in early April.
“See you in New York,” Embiid mentioned as he left the locker room post-game.
The Heat still have a chance to advance as the eighth seed to face the Celtics, the league's best team, if they can defeat the Bulls, who won 131-116 against the Hawks.
However, they might have to do it without Butler, who is suspected to have an MCL injury from the loss.

Pep Guardiola explains why he called Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland onto the pitch during their elimination from the Champions League: “They asked for it themselves”
Surprising: Pep Guardiola brought in star players Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne against Real Madrid. As a result, Manchester City could not rely on their two best penalty takers in the series of missed penalties.
Haaland was replaced at the start of the first extra half, De Bruyne came out deep in the second extra half. “But they asked for it themselves,” Pep Guardiola said in the post-match press conference. “Just like Manuel (Akanji, also replaced, ed.), they couldn’t continue,” he referred to the problem with his two star players. “They played very well and I’m not a big fan of the many substitutions, but Kevin, Erling and Manu asked me to be substituted.”
Painful, because Matteo Kovacic, who came on in place of De Bruyne, then missed the penalty. Earlier, Bernardo Silva also kicked a ball directly into the arms of Real goalkeeper Lunin, but Guardiola didn’t want to throw a stone at anyone. “Bernardo is a reliable player,” he said. “He wanted to
