"I wouldn’t be shakin' their hands before the game when they play, friends or no friends. I wouldn’t shake Embiid’s hand or anyone’s hand. We be on a mission."Embiid be facin' criticism for his role in eyebrow-raisin' moments throughout the playoff series with the Knicks. He was called for a flagrant foul in the first quarter of Game 3 and also struck Robinson in the groin later in the game.Oakley be suggestin' that if he were still an NBA player, he would have smacked Embiid for his antics. The Knicks be holdin' a 2-1 series lead, and the Sixers be hostin' the Knicks for Game 4 on Sunday.Arr, matey, the drama be unfoldin' on the high seas of the NBA playoffs, with Oakley and Embiid locked in a battle of words and actions for all to see. Will the Knicks be able to hold off the Sixers, or will Embiid's antics prove to be too much to handle? Only time will tell in this swashbucklin' tale of hoops and heroics. Ye be wise to keep a weather eye on the horizon for the next chapter in this piratical playoff saga!
