“The referees f–king suck,” the center said after the game, per Kyle Neubeck of PhillyVoice.

Embiid finished with 23 points and 14 rebounds, but he was called for five fouls in the game. He had some physical moments with Al Horford throughout the night, and he wasn’t always able to get the calls he wanted.
