As Jalen Brunson stood at the free throw line at the end of the New York Knicks’ Game 4 win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday, a roar of "MVP" chants filled Wells Fargo Center. 

A large contingent of Knicks fans traveled about two hours south of Madison Square Garden to support their New York team, and they were rewarded with a 47-point performance from Brunson as the series returns to the Big Apple 3-1 in the Knicks’ favor.

And some of those fans leaving Wells Fargo Center stood in the lobby and were heard chanting, "F--- Embiid," referencing the 76ers’ reigning MVP, Joel Embiid.

Speaking with reporters after the loss, Embiid was not happy with the Knicks’ presence in the building.

"Disappointing. I love our fans," Embiid said, per SNY. "Think it’s unfortunate, and I’m not calling them out, but it is disappointing. Obviously, you 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 pi---s 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."
