Jalen Brunson scored a career playoff-high 47 points to go along with 10 assists as the New York Knicks defeated the host Philadelphia 76ers 97-92 in Game 4 of their Eastern Conference first-round series on Sunday.
But the story of the game was in the stands. Philadelphia star Joel Embiid was frustrated by the numbers of Knicks fans who were vocal in the Sixers’ arena. “[It’s] disappointing,” Embiid told ESPN. “I’ve never seen it, and I’ve been here for 10 years. Yeah, it kind of pisses me off, especially because Philly is considered a sports town. They’ve always shown up, and I don’t think that should happen. Yeah, it’s not OK.”
