The Philadelphia 76ers lost at home in Game 4 against the New York Knicks, 97–92, though, it didn't always feel like a home game for the Sixers.
Knicks fans effectively took over Wells Fargo Center on Sunday as the team took a 3–1 series lead over Philadelphia, and star center Joel Embiid wasn't too happy with the large contingent of New York jerseys in the crowd.
After the game, Embiid voiced his frustration over the situation and called it "disappointing" to see so many away fans pumping up the volume at a 76ers home game.
"Disappointing," said Embiid to reporters after the Game 4 loss. "I love our fans. I think it's unfortunate. I'm not calling them out, but it is disappointing. Obviously, we got a lot of Knicks fans and they're down the road, but I've never seen it. I've been here 10 years.”
