Is Villanova a Philadelphia school? It's an age old debate in this city and last night added fueled to the controversial topic.
The official Villanova Basketball X account posted the crazy, wild, final sequence of the Knicks' Game 2 improbable win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night promoting their three alumni in the game—Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart, and Donte DiVincenzo of the Knicks.
Those three former Wildcats, in particular, were almost solely responsible for the Knicks' comeback in the final 30 seconds of the game.
Sixers fans were not appreciative of the post and let the Nova account have it in the comments.
94WIP's Mike Sielski defended the Villanova account.
Brunson, Hart, DiVincenzo and the Knicks now have a 2-0 series lead over the 76ers. Game 3 will be Thursday night in South Philadelphia at the Wells Fargo Center, an arena where the aforementioned players are very familiar with.
