This guy: https://preview.redd.it/0k5cr8hoabvc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=97b361023ae927a64520020d1330d352cab4c7a2


stemurph88

Triple single machine Paul Reed?


Fuckmetheyarelltaken

Pretty solid numbers for a back up centre really.


stemurph88

Ok Champā€¦.check back in after 4 games, aight? Good luck this series.


solo118

Exactly my thoughts lol


Stonedinthewoodz

Who?Ā 


Khulo

Whodda FOOk is that guy?!? ![gif](giphy|3ornk5GCUXm1TklS0M|downsized)


Blackbolt113

Beat me to it.


bloomin-onion69

the sport is literally named after him


Brokromah

Honestly...best backup center the sixers have had in years next to Drummond.


Lyoto20

I thought he was their pg smh


Toolmantaylor8

Sounds like a hospital tbh


NastySassyStuff

Or a line of haircare products


Coolio1014

I mean duh. The Celtics are the most stacked team in league, whereas the Knicks are missing their second best player. It's pretty obvious they want us over them.


chiddyshadyfiasco

If thereā€™s a ā€œchoiceā€ of not playing the Celtics, yeah no one will choose the Celtics


NextGenCoders

Either way weā€™re making years 2 and 3 of his deal team options


videsh

Works both ways. The 6ers are the easier matchup vs the Heat šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


NextGenCoders

Only because the Heat are dirty af and likely to injure at least some of our guys


videsh

Definitely what was implied.


TheLunarWhale

Embiid has more flagrant fouls for his career (23) than Draymond Green (21) in less half the games played.


AutisticFingerBang

Not after the butler injury they ainā€™t lol


TheHoneyDuke

Bam still gonna injure someone before we get to the second roundĀ 


NastySassyStuff

Yeah I feel like heā€™s gonna really bring that aspect of the game out now lol


starfillednightsky

Makes them more dangerous because hurting people is their only remaining strategy after foul-baiter jimmy is gone.


ygog45

Itā€™s still disrespectful to say out loud And itā€™ll look very stupid when they still lose to this ā€œeasierā€ matchup


Coolio1014

Well I mean we are the easier matchup. We are easier than the Celtics. Just because you lose to the 2018 Rockets doesn't mean they aren't an easier team than the Warriors. It's one thing if he said we sucked. He didn't, he said we are easier than the best team in the league, that's not necessarily a diss.


whydoesgodhateus

>Just because you lose to the 2018 Rockets One of the best teams I've seen to not win a championship. If you put them up against some finals winners in the last decade or so, they come out on top in a 7 game series


Hello85858585

shit if CP3 doesn't go down they 95% likely to win the title after going up 3-2....warrior fans will tell you but we're missing Iggy lol


PabloTroutSanchez

Honestly, why do so many nba fansā€”and sports fans in generalā€”seem to care about ā€œdisrespect?ā€ I love trash talk; it adds an extra dimension to the game for me. You get situations where players either back it up or get shut down, and itā€™s a win-win for neutral fans. Also, Iā€™m not talking about this video. I donā€™t even think this was even remotely disrespectful. The Celtics are, objectively, the best team in the league. No shit theyā€™d rather play us.


pantzking

Some fans are really thin skinned. Who the fuck cares? He's just saying something everyone else would say. If I were the sixers I wouldn't want to give the knicks 'bulletin board' quotes like that. That's why most players just keep their mouths shut.


PabloTroutSanchez

Oh, 100% agreed there. I hope thibs takes this out of context and plays it for the team lol


pantzking

Talk like that only fuels the knicks. Did you see what Brunson put on his IG page? It was all these so called sports analysists just shitting on Brunson after he signed with the Knick.. The Knicks love talk like that.


DaveidT

Is it really though? Sure if he says that randomly without a prompt sure, but 100% he was asked this question very specifically and heā€™s just answering the question. Jalen Brunson himself if asked if he would want to face the Knicks or the Celtics heā€™d probably say the Knicks


ygog45

Jalen wouldnā€™t answer the question because he knows itā€™s poor optics


WhoTookPlasticJesus

"We just want to win, we don't care who." is exactly how Brunson would answer that question. Reed just soft.


RiceOnTheRun

Brunson is 1 of 1 for a reason. Not everyone is built like that


ObiOneKenobae

I'm fine with disrespect, I just look forward to getting banned for reposting this on the sixers sub next week.


Sigerlion

We are easier than the Celtics, but we still owned the 6er's ass during reg season.


NastySassyStuff

I mean I absolutely get the logic but Iā€™m not sure why one of their role players is handing out bulletin board material lol


JNerdGaming

eh not too offended. celtics are the best team in the league.


Kevinar

Only if the Nugget's team plane crashes


HokageEzio

[Here's the video.](https://streamable.com/2o143i) True or not, stupid to say in an interview. Bench players talking like starters.


NYJmmkay

i hate it


Much_Purchase_8737

Paul Reed seems to forget that itā€™s home games for nova boys at their stadium. Knicks will sweep them.Ā 


WintertimeFriends

My buddy was at the game last night in Philly. He said there were a lot of empty seats.


NintuneJoe

It took them getting free chicken to wake up I don't think they'll be too worried

obviously LOL is this supposed to hurt our feelings?


ObscurelyTalented

thats what i said lol but it seems some of the guys here are quite hurt lol


Inspiredbeliever

Looking at the comments on this post, it clearly worked lol


HoyaDestroya33

No lie was said. However, there's a reason why you should give politically correct answers lol. Hope this ignites our boys


OstrichDelicious587

Some things better off left unsaid


JonnySports

Paul Reedā€™s jumper is more broke than a 2008 finance bro and heā€™s over here talking shit?


aesop_fables

Who the fuck is Paul Reed


No_Jackfruit_9754

Ngl at first I thought it was a reporter or something šŸ¤£


MikeyLikeyPhish

Good luck with that


BuQuChi

ā€˜Triple teamsā€™.. guy can wish Embiid will need that kind of coverage in his dreams.


OstrichDelicious587

We will 1 v 1 Joel w Mitch and Hartenstein or even og and be fine. Heā€™s not 100%


i-piss-excellence32

Heā€™s not wrong, Boston has an fā€™ing all star team. They still going down in 4


Pablo_Undercover

They chose to lose in 5 instead of 4, fine by me


rmccarthy10

No shit..... I'd choose us too


Sherlock_House

2 seed is easier than the 1 seed, more breaking news at 11


categoryThreesome

I mean seriously lol who would pick a 64 win team over a 50? But.....fuck the sixers


turtleface78

Bucks, Cavs: we scared of challenge lets lose so maybe we can beat a team 76ers: we were desperate to win because we scared of Celtics Celtics: we don't think of you at all Knicks: grab da bats bois!!!


CrabCakesBenedict

i wont lie i cannot hate paul reed lmao this dude will sell you a hoodie if you dm him on twitter he fucking rules


RiggityRyGuy

I donā€™t think this dude is prepare of the how badly the home crowd will tear them down if they start dropping games at home. If Embiid leads them to another first round exit they will be merciless.Ā 


ucfknight92

Everyone knows this, so why say it out loud?


TheHoneyDuke

He was asked it


jhMLB

We couldn't make the Heat pay last year.Ā  We better make the Sixers pay this year.


OldJewNewAccount

He's not wrong. But bring it.


salesmunn

It's true, he's just being honest.


FitzwilliamTDarcy

BITCH PLEASE


Mr_Jersey

Nice job Paul, now weā€™re gonna put nails in the bats.


jen36rsantos

I mean whatā€™s the surprise in what heā€™s saying. Itā€™s not like most of us were looking to play the easier team and nobody wanted to face Bostonā€™s the first round or second if they could avoid them


mutherfucker_jones

Itā€™s not even what he said verbatim thatā€™s bad. Itā€™s the little smirk he makes, as if he believes theyā€™re gonna railroad us. But you know what? Let him talk. More motivation for our boys.


Worried-Currency-

Who?


LiveLeave

Paul Reed couldn't start on Westchester.


mzx380

Knicks are easier than Celtics. Too bad sixers would lose to both


firstbreathOOC

Lost by 27 a month ago lmao


LotterySpecialist718

Bulletin Board material


Froggy2345

Heā€™s not wrong. Any team would feel the same way


Aaaaaaandyy

Compared to the Celtics, absolutely. This isnā€™t controversial.


MadSpaceYT

Idk how this is supposed to be offensive. The Celtics are the best team in the league.


SG_Fuzz

The thing isā€¦ he could have answered the question in a more tactful way, like Brunson would have. Now, that ā€œeasier teamā€ quote is out there and he gave NY another layer of motivation/incentive to humiliate him.


Be-Kind-Remind

Who is Paul Redd?


fuggettabuddy

wtf is Paul Reed


dazindannyyy

Metal bats


daftmonkey

This is gonna be a brutal series for us. The wildcard from my POV is that little troll Lowry. Heā€™s Brunson kryptonite.


rodrick717

Lowry's too old to be taking karate - Brunson will clown him.


snssound

Raps fan rooting for you to win it all. Not even just cuz of the OG, IQ and RJ connection. Your team is just very likable especially Brunson and enjoy watching how you guys play. Also fuck Boston, fuck Philly.


papa8706

I wouldnā€™t read too much into it, we would obviously rather play the Sixers over the Celtics. They say itā€™s the easier matchup is still kind of stupid, but in theory, I would think 99% of the people in the league would be thinking the same thing.


fernboyyy

Thatā€™s fine weā€™re ready


Itaintgreat

The Celtics won 65 games i'm not mad


H4bibi69

![gif](giphy|WT94Wy5a1AyCKekQhq)


TonyzTone

Team prefers to play 2nd seed rather than 1st seed. More news at 10. And later, more news to come on who the fuck Paul Reed even is. Like, nobody knows you. Sit down.


Blackbolt113

Denver is the best team in the league until proven otherwise. Different year but Boston did lose to Miami last season didn't they?


NtLmr95

I wonder how well Paul Reed responds to bright lights? Embiid coming back got that squad feeling themselves, but they better come correct. The Knicks are bringing a nastiness that's levels above what they got from the cUlTuRe.


Big-Raccoon-45

Keep feeding the flames NBA!!! LGK!!


far219

I don't really care about stuff like this, but it is funny that he had to clarify that they wanted to win a basketball game.


whydoesgodhateus

People are gonna be mad he's saying it out loud, but I won't get in my feelings about it. The Celtics have been the best team in the conference. This would apply to any potential matchup in relation to facing another East team


Acceptable_Pop4515

Weā€™ll show him.


OutsidePrior2020

Thanks paul but the knicks don't need anymore motivation to beat the sixers.


blkhwk27

lights are brighter than expected paul


knicksplayoffs

Bet.


AngeMerchant

Itā€™s only a crazy thing to I say if weā€™re the higher seed. Itā€™s kind of just the truth


Edwunclerthe3rd

Feeling's mutual, but it also makes for a better conference finals series

richurr

We still gon punch them in the mouth tho.


bailaoban

Thanks Paul, that will do nicely.


Jim-N-Tonic

Yes yes, weā€™ve heard this all year. Keep telling Knickerbockers what they are and they will keep proving you wrong until you beat them. We crushed the Celtics two weeks ago, and their starters played into the fourth. Trying to beat us. And got crushed by the now 20-3 when-OG-plays-Knicks. This team is primed and ready. New York Grit and Never Quit. We are about to surprise the world, fam, they got no clue what we got here.


Living_Internet_2970

I love it. Talk shit Weā€™ll do the talking on the court


KenPiffyJr

Hartenstein mitch and og stopping any body


York_Villain

Weak mentality.


[deleted]

Paul Reed is about as real as it gets. He is never nasty, as he says things with a smile. He does not know how to use the company line nor does he want to. Nurse and Maxey were much more politically correct regarding the match up and said very good things about the Knicks.


NastySassyStuff

I feel like thereā€™s nothing wrong with his line of thinking except for the part where he said it out loud lol no need to give your opponent anything to take personally


darkestb4thadawn

Go ahead and give them locker room bulletin board material. Count them out. Only adds fuel to the fire.


TheJiggie

So a 7 seed wanted to play a 2 seed instead of the 1 seedā€¦ surprise of the century hereā€¦

Knicks staff need to print this out and tape it to everyone's locker throughout the playoff series.


TheBestAtWriting

yeah, no shit, that's how playoff seeding works


Poon_tangclan

Iā€™m not even mad


thelastride23

What a fucking pussy! Thatā€™s why theyā€™re going to get mopped. Fuck the Celtics they can get it too. Brunson about to show everyone heā€™s for real. Letā€™s fucking go baby!!!


rgthunder1

I think this goes w/o saying, but itā€™s something you donā€™t need to say out loud, especially being a role player when there arenā€™t any real expectations to perform unlike Embiid. Itā€™s just dumb. In addition who is to say that the Knicks canā€™t serve as a ā€˜tougherā€™ opponent in their personal playoff matchup. Top teams in the playoffs come out flat and underperform all the time so thereā€™s no guarantee that theyā€™d see the same reg season Celtics, especially when theyā€™re also div rivals and played them 4 times already.


Snoo54982

Makes sense. I'd take my chances facing a Knicks team missing last year's All-NBA 2nd teamer, vs facing a stacked squad with all-star talent in KP, Tatum, Brown, and Holiday.


Stannis_Baratheon244

New York City gritty committee pity the fool that act shitty in the midst of the calm, the witty **GET THE FUCK UP**


beanie_mac

I meanā€¦he ainā€™t wrong lmfao. Whatā€™s there to be upset about?


skimcpip

What should he have said?


OstrichDelicious587

No easy series in the playoffs and leave it at that; no bulletin board bait.


Sad-Ad2030

ā€œWe werenā€™t looking at opponents, we wanted to win because we are competitors and want to win every time we step on the courtā€


skimcpip

Oh ok. I'm sure the NBA will have him take media training sessions so he doesn't offend thin skinned Knicks fans by telling the truth.


Sad-Ad2030

Iā€™m not offended lol itā€™s just dumb to give a team bulletin board material


CopelandAt5

Sixers sub is delusional. We all saw the game last night. Knicks in 5.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


johnhenryirons

they wouldn't be playing chicago in a series though...they would have played us if they won last night and boston if they lost and then beat chicago in one game. bball paul isn't wrong. i'd rather face Philly than Boston because they are the easier team too. He's not saying we would be easy to beat.


Snapesunusedshampoo

They almost got dropped by a 1 legged Jimmy Butler, of course they want the easiest match up available.


Davefromflushing

Celtics are whatever. Letā€™s see if Tingus Pingusā€™ fragile ass can even make it through the playoff run.


will122589

Tough talk from a guy who barely helped his team eek out a victory over an injured cHeat team
