The NBA has a long list of problems and violence happens to be one of them — here we go again.
During Wednesday night’s game between the Toronto Raptors and New York Knicks at the latter’s Madison Square Garden, a video shows a couple of fans getting in a fight and throwing punches while placed in the stands.
It’s not known why the fight got sparked up, per usual, but the viral video shows two men getting into a skirmish and grappling with one another. However, it didn’t take long for things to escalate, as one gentleman (and I use that term loosely) with long hair can be seen poppin’ his opp with blow after blow. The other individual, who was a row up from the curly haired guy, eventually responded with his own punches, the video shows.

Weirdly, though, the fight didn’t last long and deescalated quickly, and both guys eventually went about their business. And by business, I mean they were kicked out of the game, according to OutKick. The “they look like idiots” damage was already done, though — might as well leave at that point. And to make them look even more stupid, this whole thing happened only “about 3 minutes into the game,” according to the fan who recorded the video.
“I was right behind the fight!” the fan wrote. “Crazy that two people found something to fight about 3 minutes into the game.”

A typical scene you would expect at a China-enabling NBA game in a left-wing rathole like New York City … How predictable.
