Following a brutal dunk by Tobias Harris, Embiid signalled to call for a timeout. Seems normal, right? But on a closer look, it is clear that he was asking the Heat to call a timeout. Well, the Heat heard his “request” as they called for a timeout.
With this game in the books, the 76ers will continue to tear apart their competition in the first half of the season. Looking at them, they are playing at an elite level and are emerging as the top contenders to be crowned Eastern Conference champions this season.
