Bad behavior between fans continued in the NBA postseason.
On Friday, the New York Knicks imposed their will against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday night. The New York Knicks didn’t just beat the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals Friday night, they made a statement on how they hope the rest of the series plays out.
The Knicks won 99-79, holding the Cavs to the fewest points by any team in the NBA this season to take a 2-1 series lead.
The Knicks fan base was going nuts outside Madison Square Garden, but not everybody was in a good mood.
For some unknown reason, a Brooklyn Nets fan was out in the crowd and upset. The video showed him coming through the crowd and then sucker-punching a Knicks fan for no reason.
Disgusting behavior. No word if any arrests happened after that punch.
