It was another tough loss for Joel Embiid and his Sixers squad. After the game, Embiid did not hide his feelings about the loss. He also had a few words for the Knicks fans who made the trip to Philadelphia and were vocal in the fourth quarter.

“It’s disappointing. It kind of pisses me off,” Embiid said.

Embiid finished with 27 points on 7-of-19 shooting. He went 1 of 6 from 3-point range, including a couple of misses late when the Sixers were chasing the lead.

Embiid did most of his damage from the free-throw line. He was 12 of 14 from the stripe He also added 10 rebounds, six assists, three steals and two blocks. He had four turnovers as well.

Philadelphia will need another heroic performance like his 50-point game in the Game 3 win to extend their season. The Garden will be rocking as New York tries to advance to the second round for the second straight season behind its leader, Jalen Brunson.

Game 5 is on Tuesday. Tipoff time is still to be determined depending on the potential conclusions of other first-round series.
