The Pacers fan was hit with trash bags as he attempted to walk down the street in the video shared on Sunday.
"Knicks fans brutally troll Pacers fan donning a Tyrese Haliburton jersey after Game 6 and series win in New York," the X page Clutch Points wrote.
Fans reacted in the comments.
"Trash behavior," one said.
"Knicks fans always find a way to bring karma to their team," another fan said. "Imagine if the Pacers actually win," they added with three laughing/crying emojis.
"That's why I never go to NY as a visiting fan, or Philly or Baltimore," another added.
Another stuck up for the Knicks fans.
"He started trolling outside MSG in a rivals jersey as the Knicks played a different franchise so he's lucky all they did is throw trash bags at him," they said.
"'Brutally' would have been if someone put hands on the guy."
