NBA News NBA News, Match Reports and Updates
There’s been no shortage of both drama and celebrities when it comes to the NBA Finals in New York City. Wednesday night was no different, with the seats packed with stars in Madison Square Garden — and we got the biggest comeback in NBA Finals history, as the Knicks came back from 29 points down to win, taking a 3-1 lead in the series.
It wasn’t just an amazing game, but a heck of an experience when it comes to seeing how the celebs reacted when they realized the Knicks made history in front of them.

Taylor Swift
I also love that this was shot in black and white by Ben Stiller from courtside in the most dramatic, artistic way possible. To be honest, I’d love a subplot in the next season of Severance where Mark S is told the Knicks win the finals and he assumes it has to be a deepfake by Lumon.
Taylor would go on to party in the tunnel as well.
Timothee Chalamet
I truly, honestly, love this for him. Chalamet comes by his Knicks’ fandom honestly, and his love of the team has been established for a long, long time. Well, a relatively long time when you’re 30-years-old. My man ended up being so hyped up that he grabbed a mic from Entertainment Tonight and cut his own promo in the tunnel after the game.
Fat Joe
This is easily my favorite one, because Fat Joe is taking credit for the Knicks win. He tracked down Stephen A. Smith after the game and claims that his dancing (and possibly the glare off his chains) caused Victor Wembanyama to miss two critical free throws at the end of the game. This might be the only time I’ve seen SAS struggle to know what to say.
Mike Brown gave at least a little credence to the idea that Fat Joe helped out.
I’m just happy that we get to talk about Fat Joe in 2026.

Larry David
Larry David almost collapsed when Josh Hart missed a breakaway layup that could have given the Knicks the lead in the final minute:
Spike Lee
LOOK AT HOW MANY SPIKE LEE IS.
Even if you hate the Knicks, you have to feel some joy for a long downtrodden hardcore fan like Spike.
Just listen to the joy from this man:
The Knicks have never been more alive. What a night in MSG.
