Knicks fans take over Sixers' arena over weekend

Knicks fans "took over" the Wells Fargo Center in Games 3 and 4 of the Sixers’ first-round series -- "but especially" yesterday during a 97-92 Knicks victory. The arena "rang with 'M-V-P' chants" for Knicks G Jalen Brunson , who scored a franchise record 47 points, all game, but "it was especially hard to miss after the game." Fans also "came together on the concourse to chant '[Expletive] Embiid' and 'Knicks in five.'" The visiting fans also "put up a Knicks jersey on the statue of Wilt Chamberlain ." 76ers C Joel Embiid said, "I think it’s unfortunate and I’m not calling them out, but it is disappointing. Obviously you’ve got a lot of Knicks fans and they’re down the road and I’ve never seen it, and I’ve been here for 10 years. Yeah, it kind of [ticks] me off, especially because Philly is considered a sports town" ( PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER, 4/28 ).
