Edie Falco Critiques Embiid and Knicks Trades

Actress and Knicks fan Edie Falco criticized Philadelphia 76ers' Joel Embiid for elbowing Jalen Brunson during a playoff game, expressing her surprise that Brunson doesn't hold a grudge. Despite Falco's harsh words, Brunson explained on the Roommates Show podcast that he respects Embiid, having known him before entering the NBA, and views the incident as part of the game's competitive nature. Falco, known for her role in The Sopranos, has been a Knicks fan since her acting days and recently expressed frustration with the team's trades, including the Karl-Anthony Towns deal involving Julius Randle. She believes the Knicks should involve fans in trade decisions to maintain team chemistry. Brunson emphasizes mutual respect among players, distinguishing between competition and personal animosity.
