Knicks Fan Pull on a Spurs Fans Jersey Then Proceeds To Throw Something At Him
i really like this knicks team and their players but these fans are insufferable.
They attack people every series. Even mentally challenged people. Total scumbags.
They attack themselves?
Unironically yes you can see a video of it on this very subreddit
Who would’ve thought the city that prides themselves on being dickheads to everyone has an aggressive and shitty fanbase
It’s not that I hate New York, Boston and Philly sports teams themselves, it’s their shitty fans that makes me want them to lose.
The fans are why I hate the Knicks
“I like your Knicks, I do not like your Knicks fans. Your Knicks fans are so unlike your Knicks.”
’-Mahatma Gandhi
NYC + NJ Region + LI Region is easily 10MM+ people. There’s a pretty good mix of good and bad, tall and short, dark and light, thin and wide Knicks fans. Don’t say every Knicks fan is like this when the city is a hodgepode of 100’s of cultures.
thunder fans did the same
mob mentality, cameras, clout re all growing
There’s about 2% of “fans” that ruin it for the other 98% of us. Fuck these people.
Why aren’t any of the 98% of Knicks fans out on the street putting a stop to this shit if you guys out number the “fans” so much?
Bc the majority of fans aren’t out on the streets ensuring the safety of people. I’m not a Knicks fan. But Thunder had some similar clips last year. I have work in the morning. I’m going to bed after the game.
Exactly, knick fans making excuses why the other 98% of the knick fans are not stopping the “2%”. Maybe 1% are trying to stop it. Keep making excuses for being completely 99% shit fans.
I’m almost 40 years old. I don’t have time to play Batman. If it’s in the arena it’s easy to step in. Once it hits the streets fans can’t corral everyone. We got the NYPD who are supposed to deal with those goons.
So 97% knick fans in the area can’t stop (or corral) the 2% attacking fans of other teams? Who said anything about the arena? Where are the NYPD?
Keep making excuses and diverting (no one said anything about knick fans in the arena or at home/bar/etc.)
You’re missing that there’s a concentration of these pieces of shit hanging around the area. That does not mean this is emblematic of the fanbase at large.
Don’t hit him with a sensible take, it’ll only make him madder.
I didn’t make a single excuse. I’m trying to tell you what’s happening but your hate boner for the Knicks is clouding your mind. Have a good day man!
As someone who lives in NYC you should know this isn’t how a majority of Knicks fans are. Go wear your Spurs jersey out and about and you won’t be bothered 99% of the time. I’m surprised you’re buying into the all Knicks fans are bad take when you live here and can see it with your own eyes.
All that being said, let me reiterate, fuck those goons who do this shit.
It’s not their authority to do that. It is the NY police department. The police know this is happening - so why aren’t they patrolling after games and protecting people and going through these video’s and arresting / fining and civilly trying these losers to pay damages. If they are on wellfare - take it away. You take stuff from these people and punish them.
oh well… good luck NY.
Can’t imagine what they’re gonna do if they win
If the Knicks lose… they fans will legit murder someone in a Spurs jersey
Spurs gotta take it to game 7 at home then
That involves winning at least 1 more in New York
They can. All the Knick fans will be in jail by game 4
Spurs in 6 🙏🏻
Deaths will reach triple digits if they somehow lose in 6
And if they win???….
Same thing. Destruction
watch when PSG won the Champions League last month, guarantee same thing will happen
Parisians revolt at anything tbf, winning or losing doesn’t matter.
Parisians huh.
Nah. If the team loses the streets are dead quiet.

Provide video fodder for every Republican campaign for the next 20 years
Get reporters to ask Knicks players what they think of their fans behaving like gangsters
Win or lose, a handful of idiots will always find a way to mess it up for everyone.
Some fanbases clearly have a bigger problem with this kind of behavior being celebrated and encouraged as part of the “culture”. Not a handful of idiots. A much larger percentage. You’re just not going to see this much of this kind of wildly ecstatic criminal violence from other nba fans
As a Pistons fan, you’ve got no room with the morality bullshit.
are there videos of their fans assaulting random people on the street because theyre wearing a logo that isnt the same as the one they like? Or are you stretching the Malace in the Palace incident to be something that applies to all fans of the team even 20+ years later?
Wait, so is it a handful of idiots making everyone look bad, or was morality just bullshit all along to you? I’m a little confused where you stand…
You’re painting the whole fan base with one brush. A few idiots don’t represent the tens of thousands of Knicks fans who didn’t touch a single Spurs fan. You claim a “larger percentage” when there’s no evidence of it.
Show me the videos of other fanbases doing this shit to this degree
Finish this phrase for me:
A few bad apples…
It was dangerous out there tonight. No one should feel threatened or be attacked for repping their team. I was worried for my own safety, and I’m a Knicks fan.
Outside Bryant Park was crazy - those people causing problems weren’t even trying to watch the game. They aren’t even fans, they don’t even care about the game. There were fights breaking out, people getting pepper sprayed, and a stampede almost broke out a couple times. I left that shit real quick.
It’s crazy that it’s the Knicks fans do it when they have so much representation at away games. Like you said, people shouldn’t feel unsafe over repping their team.
A lot of these people have not watched a single knicks game prior to this past week. Most of the crowd was young and they didn’t care about the game. They were more concerned with mosh pitting or something in front of the Grace building. I’m not exactly sure what they were trying to do.
I blame this stupid side talk culture, people are trying to go viral for outrageous behavior.
Actual Knicks fans were too focused on the damn game. How could you have attention for anything else???
I was at the bar for the second half. The amount of conversations I overheard about people not knowing the sport or the team was maddening. Why are you here taking up space, making it so that no one can sit or move around?
Actual Knicks fans were in this video recording lmao.
A lot of these people have not watched a single knicks game prior to this past week.
I mean, how do you know that?
Have you lived in a city whose team went on a championship run before?
Do we see San Antonio doing this?
Yes. I live in a championship city that people actually like and don’t assault folks in – it’s called Boston.
Yeah Boston is a really classy fanbase. Just ask Adam Jones about it lmfao
This has to be a joke.
Didn’t y’all jump a Philly fan after game 7??
Generational stretch.
😭 bro what
I live in a championship city that people actually like and don’t assault folks in – it’s called Boston.
Intellect of a boston resident for sure
Its funny how this is the comment you reply to. Cant defend the adam jones comment though.
Calling players racial slurs isnt assault?
Important to remember the sheer magnitude of population in nyc, and the fact that a large percent of that population is not a native New Yorker, it’s not that hard to understand. This is pure speculation, but I would bet as a percentage, way more San Antonio residents have watched their team prior to the finals than New Yorker residents.
The people in these videos are basically just trying to go viral on TikTok
This is pure speculation
Yes it is, but it’s also logical. This isn’t court lol. First day on the internet?
Yeah, just got a free disc from AOL at the new Wal Mart Supercenter
KMart probably had it cheaper
Knicks fans trying to shove off blame saying “these aren’t real Knicks fans” while they’re covered in Knicks gear lmao
they didn’t even watch the game. they did not care. not even on their phone.
[removed]
It’s almost like NYC is one of the most populated places on earth
Yeahhh I’m just gonna watch at a bar. These watch parties scare me.
Ours (watching as a SAS fan) were completely unproblematic.
Your fans are creating negative juju with this shit, you’ve already racked up 1 L now
100% we have to stop this “the ppl causing trouble aren’t actually knicks fans” bullshit. they absolutely are knicks fans. we aren’t gonna shift blame off the fanbase and act like its just random ppl that dont rep this team.
Imma just chalk it up to ‘new yorkers’
If you live in New York you know exactly who these kids are, maybe a few are Knicks fans but that’s not why they’re there
This kind of trouble making element is in most cities now. Looking for any excuse to get violent and dangerous.
I don’t think you guys realize how big New York is and how much New Yorkers hate midtown on any given day, let alone when big events like this happen.
For god sakes manhattan isn’t even the biggest boro
brother I live in nyc, my coworkers have been going to penn station for watch parties for the past few playoff runs. I’ve worked on 34th st and had to deal with fans after games being insane. maybe other ppl “don’t realize” but I absolutely do and stand by what I said.
Just watched from home tonight, had a bad feeling in my stomach all day about the state of the city lol. Hope you made it home safe and ok
No true scotsman
This would never happen in San Antonio just saying
“people”
Oh, so blacks and browns?
If it had been anyone lighter than George Lopez we would have gotten the full on anti-white “WHITE OUTRAGE FORMS MOB IN NEW YORK” headline lmao.
If you’re gonna be dumb enough to mess with someone, probably don’t pick an unc that looks ready to throw down
these knicks fans don’t care. they got the hive mentality and got numbers
Exactly. This guy is trying with all of his might to avoid the situation, but sooner or later he’s gonna snap and someone’s getting stabbed.
This guy is trying with all of his might to find a situation, sooner or later he’s getting stabbed.
Fixed that for you
None of them are stepping up to him though, they are nipping at his heels like hyenas when he turns his back.
Are you kidding me? Unc is old enough to know better than to be where he is wearing what he is wearing, and he has no hope of defending himself against a mob.
What the fuck is wrong with people?
Just that NY state of mind
How do you know someone is from new york? They’ll tell you in less than 2 minutes
They’ll say I during their introduction.
Unc said “I’m gonna get one ya’ll” that’s hard af
That would be my mindset too. Can’t beat em all but I can at least take down one mfer with me
“I’m ready! How about you!?”
If you’re in this situation, latch on to one of the attacker’s ears with your teeth, and while you’ve got a good grip, use the person’s body to shield off blows from the other attackers.
You’ll still get beat down, but at least you’ll look hard as fuck during the process.
The best advice is to get the hell away from an angry mob as fast as possible.
Knicks fans weak as fuck for this shit
NYPD, do your fucking job!
If the Spurs fan was a CEO they would shut down the city to find the suspects 🤣
Fuck that then they just lock up a bunch of black kids
This is sad on multiple levels
nowadays it seems like one in every five people is a completely unhinged individual that has serious mental developmental issues. It’s a world wide phenomenon.
This isn’t passion, this is a crime, 12 Knicks fan already arrested
Yeah this is why I don’t wear jerseys to games lol
Thats the sad part though. You should be ABLE to represent your team without fear of bodily injury. Very sad
Should be able to, but also I wouldn’t want to be the “change”. I’ll just watch from home lol
New York classy as always
Unc was smart. Hope he got home safe. Way to rep!
It’s sad, and to think I’ve seen far worse videos of Spurs fans getting beaten/hurt/assaulted, from tonight - horrible
City of NEETs
Fucking pathetic. I hope they never win another game and go back to being a dogshit also ran for another 50 years.
I was originally not against the knicks winning because of the 50 year drought, but clearly their fans dont deserve SHIT i hope they lose the rest of the finals games and i hope they only win 15 games next season
Man…wtf… i am not a fan to either of the teams, this is sad..
This is literally an old man. Knicks fans ain’t shit
Ganging up on one guy! Knicks fans do better!
They tried getting more people.
I was trying to suspend my hate for the Knicks and cheer for them this year…but their fans make it impossible.
These aren’t knicks fans. These kids aren’t diehard. They’re young and dumb and full of … vigor.
The Purge vibes
I need someone to edit Dark Knight Joker theme into all these Knicks videos
You know I was pretty happy for either team to win, both are likable. But Knicks fans are making it really clear I should be rooting for San Antonio. This is the sixth or so clip of completely garbage behavior I’ve seen from last night.
Smelly degen fans don’t deserve the Knicks
Shit isnt even about basketball anymore. It’s about some assholes looking for excuses to be one.
The poor guy loves his team he dont deserve that
This fanbase deserves to never win anything, bunch of lowlife basement dwelling losers.
Absolutely pathetic behavior. It’s never that deep.
Why are Knicks fans low iq losers?
Front Bank arena was literally 1⁄3 full of Knicks fans, but Spurs fans aren’t allowed in NYC?
We just can’t sit back and enjoy anything anymore. Everything gets ruined. Fuck anyone that participated or supports this.
KNICKS HAVE LOST THE MANDATE OF HEAVEN SPURS IN 6
This is what happens when you let criminals have free reign. New York is such a dump. Poor guy
Knicks fans are dumb as hell, but so is your post. Free reign? Typical right-wing trash. Become an informed person before ever voting again.
Wanting criminals to not roam free to do this shit, is not a right or left issue. Sorry media has you believing that. I care about the community I care about everyone. It’s wild how this stance is now political. It’s sad really
Moron, no one wants criminals to roam free. It is a city with millions of people. You’re seeing one quick snapshot for a few moments. Are you saying people never get arrested or something? Make sense before making a fool of yourself.
Quick snapshot. You may wanna check this comments. I’ve seen all kinds of videos in these comments. If it’s so bad, and been going on after every game, why isn’t there more law there patrolling? It’s a known problem. Calling people names doesn’t change the facts. Sorry that upset you so much. Hopefully it’s not your family next time.
Edit: After reading your comments, it’s clear you go to reddit to argue with people. Now that I know that I realize I wasted my time trying to explain anything to you.
This is the first game at MSG this series. What do you mean every game? Police can only do so much when there are thousands of drunk sore losers heading home. It is impossible to prevent every single person from behaving normally.
Is this the first game here during the playoffs? Lmao they haven’t played in New York this post season? You can watch the other 10+ videos here. Plenty of other people to argue with since the videos must be fake. You need help man. Coming to Reddit to argue with random ppl is your whole entire account lmao what a clown
Don’t need a flair to know where this guys from
Are you really defending this? That’s sad as hell. I’m from the Chicago area man, Id have the same complaints about this stuff happening here too
I’m not defending it. It’s sad and vile behavior. But saying “criminals roam free” and it’s a “dump” is just your average Fox News propaganda
The truth can be hurtful. It’s not a political thing for someone to want criminals to be held accountable for their actions. Media has you convinced it’s a political issue. When It’s not at all. It’s a community issue. It’s a safety issue, one that affects all people regardless of political party. Facts are facts. Sorry if they hurt your feelings when someone points them out
I don’t even live in NYC anymore so not it doesn’t personally hurt me. But NYC is treated like they have the worst crime rate when they’re just outside the top 100 in US cities violent crime rates per capita
Conservatives don’t like the words “per capita”. They just think big number bad. They’re completely void of context.
Per capita is actually my favorite data point to use for showing averages. Big numbers would be when you use the population as a whole. Per capita tends to be based of 100,000 ppl. So normally it doesn’t involve bigger numbers. So your big number comment is completely backwards. I’ll ignore the contradictions in your comment, I’m sure you’re the smartest guy on Reddit.
You just spit out a lot of words to tell everyone you don’t know what per capita means
Per capita is used to find averages on a per person basis. It’s literally what my comment said. You’re either a bot, a kid, or someone incapable of reading. “ It’S BecAuSE hE doESn’t UndERStand tHe biG NuMberS In PEr CapiTA” per capita uses averages not the “big numbers” you would have showing data without using per capita for the averages. It’s funny you calling conservatives dumb when your comment was the only dumb one lol
I live in the Chicago area. So living here has changed my opinion on soft on crime policies. They don’t work. It’s just so sad that this has to be political issue. Because It’s not at all. If someone is a harm to society I don’t want them free to harm innocent victims. Is me feeling that way somehow bad?? Political party’s have nothing to do with any of that. Just media causing more division, and people eat it up
Knicks fans are complete tools.
Having some playful banter with other fans is fine but this needs to stop. Just enjoy the game.
Tex in the City
These aren’t fans. They’re thugs looking for an excuse to do shit.
No consequence if you are 100 to 1
And because of this this, Knicks won’t win another game this series.
I hate my fellow knicks fans we arent all like these Neanderthals. I apologize to other fans trying to enjoy the game. This is not representative of all knick fans
Trash fan base. You don’t deserve Mamdani.
So is that NYPD van just there for decoration?
NYPD is a legalized gang there to protect capital, not people
Bruh the Knicks subreddit is going wild for this shit right now
Getting this worked up over “local” sports teams is the height of idiocy. A buncha mercenaries, 99% of which probably have NO local ties, and would move on to Saskatchewan Mooses if they got a better deal.
A buncha guys who wouldn’t give 2 shits if these fans lost their house, car, or family in some tragedy.
Fucking losers.

I always wanted to be in this situation just be able to hit someone. I dont get the hype behind sports, but shit, if me wearing a jersey you don’t like leads to me being able to hit you hard asf I’ll take it. Self defense is an amazing thing when used properly and correctly
I hope the Knicks don’t win another game.
greatest city in the world!
Just put an undercover cop in a spurs jersey with 10 plain clothes in the crowd.
Yeah maybe leave your Spurs jersey at home. Not worth it.
Yeah as a neutral fan, I went to this series pretty impartial, didn’t care much which team won. Both have great players and great storylines. When I saw those post-game interviews with KAT I genuinely wanted him to win it and get FMVP and get his flowers after so many years of slander.
But then these videos reminded me why everyone fucking hates New York fans. What a bunch of fucking losers, nothing would make me happier than to watch them lose every game from now on and never be relevant again.
People can be scum
This happens every year. Have the Knicks organization ever called out this behavior? They don’t see their fans at away games being treated like this.
Herd mentality
freaking rats, knicks fans stand for nothing good
[ Removed by Reddit ]
Let opposing fans carry in state. Eliminate shitty knicks fan. Good knicks get better environment and seats and less criminals near by. Mamdani profits.
The wemby effect
Comment below what you think the Knicks fan threw at the Spurs fan
All that money spent to protect the fascists tangerine who fell asleep before the second quarter. Meanwhile, multiple people get assaulted with hundreds of riot cops on standby and nothing is done. If you need any more evidence that the police are not here to protect you look no further
Who do you think is gonna quit first cops or local shop owners?
