The vibes have been off the charts in New York City as the Knicks have marched within one game of winning their first NBA championship since 1973.

There have, however, been a few bad apples in the Big Apple who don’t reflect well on the fanbase.

Following the Knicks’ Game 3 loss, five NYPD officers were injured, and video footage showed people in San Antonio Spurs attire being verbally and physically harassed.

After Wednesday night’s epic comeback victory over the Spurs, video emerged of someone throwing eggs at San Antonio players, with one hitting Victor Wembanyama in the head. There were also other videos of people assaulting Spurs supporters after the game.

On Thursday’s Get Up, New Yorker Mike Greenberg had a stern message for those using the celebration as an excuse to be violent or abusive to others.

“I don’t want to call them fans; I don’t even know what you want to say,” he said. “If you’re throwing eggs at Victor Wembanyama and… beating up people, threatening or doing anything to people wearing Spurs jerseys, just know that you are a disgrace. You’re not disgracing this city; you’re disgracing yourself and everyone who knows you.”

Greenberg went on to say that while it used to feel like this was the kind of thing that didn’t need to be said, he still wanted to make sure it was fundamentally clear.

“You’re a disgrace, and everyone around you knows it,” he added.

Amen.

Trace Carroll, close friend of ASU's Dillingham, takes over as Chaparral football coach

-
Trace Carroll, who was teammates and best friends with Arizona State coach Kenny Dillingham in high school, is returning to Scottsdale Chaparral to lead the football program. Carroll played for two of the greatest high school coaches in Arizona history, Ron Estabrook and Charlie Ragle. He played at the tail end of Estabrook's career and the start of Ragle's tenure at the school. He was an offensive lineman, next to future NFL tackle Taylor Lewan, on the 2008 team that reached the state final, before losing to Scottsdale Saguaro. The quarterback of that team, Spencer Stone, is actress Emma Stone's brother. "As a proud alumni and as a former football player at Chaparral for Ron Estabrook and Charlie Ragle, I look forward to continuing the program’s great success," Carroll said. Carroll, like Dillingham, got into coaching almost immediately after graduating from high school, helping Ragle out at Chaparral. He spent the past six years as a quarterbacks coach at P...

PARIS, FRANCE - APRIL 19: PSG Head Coach Luis Enrique Martinez talks during the Ligue 1 McDonald's match between Paris Saint-Germain FC and Olympique Lyonnais at Parc des Princes on April 19, 2026 in Paris, France. (Photo by Federico Pestellini/Eurasia Sport Images/Getty Images) | Getty Images Both Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain recorded wins in their respective league ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League semifinals first leg in Paris. PSG took care of business in Ligue 1, beating Angers 3-0 away from home and Bayern came from 3-0 down at halftime in Mainz to win 4-3 in their first match after having been crowned Bundesliga champions for the 35th time. Granted, Vincent Kompany had to bring on some of his heavy hitters in the second half to get the job done a la Harry Kane, Michael Olise, and Jamal Musiala. For PSG’s 3-0 win at Angers that tilted the Ligue 1 title race more in their favor after Lens’ 3-3 draw at Brest, Enrique also made wholesale changes from what would be...
