No, because Collins fouled him before Embiid puts his hand on him?
Didn't see the game, just looking at the picture. In that frame it looks like an offensive foul.
Superstars don't have that called on them.
Right. Which is why I asked if they called it on Embiid.
Being a Celtics fan, I can understand how you're unfamiliar with how things like that work for superstars

You’re living in the past, man. Your hung up on some clown from the sixties.
Living squarely in the present, team is gelling, one piece short of a legit run at banner 18 (and Memphis' 1st round pick, top 6 protected this year, likley to then convey unprotected in 2021 as a huge chip to get that last piece). We'll see whether the Celts get title #18 first or the Sixers get title #3.

Horford was a nice piece for you guys.
Best of luck!

And he'll be a nice piece in Philly. Overpaid just as he was here, and getting older. Last couple years of that deal may be an albatross. But his departure was the only way the Celtics freed up the max slot for Kemba Walker, so while Horford will be missed, adding Walker was a more vital need. We'll see what big man comes available for the Celts at the deadline and what shooters come available for the Sixers. Cause each team has 1 glaring need currently. But one thing...Milwaukee is not as good as everyone thought. Losing Brogdon hurts them. They still have Giannis which on many nights can be enough, but then again 6'4" Marcus Smart did a good job slowing him down the other night being physical. Their roster construction is pretty poor otherwise, they just hoist up 3's all night. (shot 14-45 against us Wednesday and those number were aided by a handful of late makes when the game was decided).
This weekend we rock Portland

I agree on the Bucks. They're not as good. Still a top tier team, but maybe not on the Sixers level.
Kemba was a nice pick up, however the Sixers with Richardson and Thybulle handled him a million times better than they did without those guys last year. I'm not scared of a guy who's never won a playoff series.
Horford has aged gracefully thus far and being able to play the four here, as opposed to center in Boston will help with that. Thanks for letting him go.

So glad I didn't turn the tv off the other night. Was about to when they got down 20 ish. Just looked like a 30 point loss kind of night. What a fucking win.

Can't tell if it was a offensive foul by this video:
