Following the Game 6 win, Knicks fans took to the streets of New York to celebrate. In typical fashion, New York fans flooded the streets to show off their happiness with the team.

For the media members inside Madison Square Garden, this meant having to navigate through all the fans to get out. For ESPN NBA insider Brian Windhorst, this turned into a viral interaction with a New York fan.

Just before the interaction occurred, it seems that Windhorst had made comments that didn't age well. Windhorst said that he was just walking to his hotel and that he would be fine.

"Thanks to Jackson and Zach, our producers, who came here to the Garden tonight and are going out to humanity. I'm just walking to my hotel, I'll be fine."

Windhorst was asked what he thought about the series, but before he could answer, the fan interrupted him. The Knicks fan then began a series of expletives, roasting the ESPN insider.

New York fans haven't had a lot to cheer about in recent years, so they were naturally excited to take down the Celtics. It was a dominant performance from the Knicks against Boston, so the fans are rightfully enthused about the team.

The Knicks will now be taking on the Indiana Pacers in the conference finals, a rematch from last season. Indiana beat the Knicks in seven games last postseason, so New York will be looking for some revenge.

New York also had home-court advantage last year, but they were missing some players due to injury. Forward OG Anunoby was banged up during the series, as well as star Jalen Brunson, leading to the Knicks falling short.

The series between the Knicks and Pacers is scheduled to start Wednesday, May 21, at 8 p.m. ET. The two teams will have had a few days off to rest and get ready for the matchup, potentially giving fans some fireworks on the court.
