What a fucking joke the league is. They’ve always been about their bottom line and will continue to be so, even when the integrity of the sport is at stake. Cowards.

The businesses surrounding MSG are going to lose a fortune on a once in a generation moment in New York City history. The City told the Knicks Game 3’s restrictions were only precautions for the president. That is clearly not true.
Knicks/MSG call Mayor Mamdani and Police Commissioner Tisch “New York City’s biggest party poopers” for choosing to close the areas surrounding MSG for Game 4 of the NBA Finals. “We have been told that the NYPD will once again implement the same 'frozen zone' restrictions for Game 4, which were supposedly to thwart any threats related to the President's attendance. We now know these restrictions were never about the President - it was just a convenient excuse to restrict how and when Knicks fans celebrate.”

The @nba and @NBAOfficial have already scripted the outcome of this series. F-ing joke of a league. They tried to give Game 2 to Spurs and failed so they doubled down in Game 3. And the Knicks played poor, and still almost won. Anything to boost profits extending NBA Finals.
No flagrant upgrade on the uncalled foul of Spurs' Victor Wembanyama to Knicks' Jalen Brunson on Monday night, a league spokesperson tells ESPN. Wembanyama will stay at two flagrant points in postseason.
