@molami97: Spurs fans needed NYPD protection just to make it through the streets after Game 3: As crowds of Knicks fans flooded the area around Madison Square Garden, officers were forced to escort opposing fans through the chaos as people yelled at them, surrounded them, and made it clear they weren't exactly welcome in Midtown that night. That's how intense this Finals atmosphere has become. Wearing a Spurs jersey in New York right now is basically putting a target on your back. Between jerseys getting ripped apart, fans getting pressed in the streets, and NYPD stepping in to keep things under control, the scenes outside the arena have started looking almost as competitive as the games themselves.#sad #spurs #knicks
