    An open hand shove to the chest is not a punch, maybe its different in Pennsylvania, but its not a punch anywhere else.

    ETA: And where did I say anything about anyone acting like a bitch?

    Yeah looks like he's slapping Embiid's hand away. If it were a punch it would :
    A. Have a closed fist.
    2. Be aimed at Embiid's head/face. I know Embiid made a funny about Rozier not being able to reach his face, but clearly he can and had he wanted to punch him would have directed a closed fist up in that direction. 
    If it had been a punch, Rozier would have been ejected. 3 refs right there during the skirmish and all 3 watched every replay angle, no punch was thrown.

    I forgot refs get everything right.  The pic shows a closed fist but whatever. I always shove people with a closed fist. I think we disagree on this one.

    Who gives a shit even if he did punch him? It's sports. Fights happen.

    The pic shows a hand grabbing jersey after shoving with an open hand, you're really trying too hard. He is puling back at the time of the pic and grabbing the shirt, watch the video again and you'll see that.

    This back and forth definitely needs a few more pages.  I'm going to Zapruder that film.

    Maybe after he punched him, he grabbed his jersey? Maybe I'm done with this. Next!

    Philly would be slupring Rozier if they had a 6'2'' kid go after a 7 foot player.  Crossing Broad would have t shirts for sale with his fist in his face before the game ended.

    I'm telling you. He's gonna get himself hurt. I like Embiid, but someone is gonna break his jaw.

    what it shows to me is Embiid being a dick.  When guys tried to grab the ball like that from me during a stoppage i would react the same way as Rozier did.  It's not international ball. You can't just pick the ball up and throw it in.

    Eh, you might be right. In meantime, I'm going to enjoy the show. Highly entertaining.

    This is Dennis Rodman style of play and I approve.  Embiid is likable.  I loved Rodman!

    Good season. If they lost games 2 or 3 closer to something like this one then it would be a little easier to swallow.

    Didn't think they'd be at this point already but here they are, looking forward to the offseason.

    Maybe Embiid signs a pair of balls to a 10 year deal.
