That’s actually really embarrassing.

if I worked at MSG I would just assume everyone over 6'6'' was on the team and let everyone in

Let's not run with this like the mainstream media and make it a bigger story than it should be. Nothing to see here an employee just trying to do their job. Don't let them make us the same old Knicks. Don't fall for it people!
In the Knick of time. Knickal for Your thoughts.

Was he wearing a mask?
If so, understandable.
If not, why not?

Backwards racist? I don't know what that is. Sounds like a made up construct. It could also be a someone in their 20s....looking at a Strang man with a mask on. The media is making this bigger than what it is or could be.

I'm not going to jump to those conclusions like racism so fast. When it could be something very simple. The knicks haven't been relevant during the course many young adults lives. If I was a security guard, I would stop him too. I would stop Dolan as well, if he's trying to walk through the same entrance as regular fans.

Born in Brooklyn, Raised in Queens, Lives in Maryland. The future is bright, I'm a Knicks fan for life!

Believe Briggs meant "backward, racist, ...." not one phrase.

My guess is the most likely explanation is that we're all getting really old, and the MSG crew was pretty young, lol.

I don't know, every time I've seen video of MSG security they don't look very young. In fact, some look like they may have been there when Ewing was a rookie. lol

I guess I've never been a fan of the "you know who I am" mentality. Just show your freakin' credential. How hard is that? Nobody is getting rich working security. Do celebrities expect working class people to risk their jobs just to make them feel special?

Unless Dolan and Ewing arent on good terms, I find it hard to believe that Ewing would get the "Oakley treatment" Its very bad publicity. Dolan knows current NBA players didnt like how Oakley was treated by MSG security.

Ewing left the Knicks more than 20 years ago. Some MSG staff might know the name, but not what he looks like. Usually dont give any kind of security the benefit of the doubt when it comes to stopping black men. I dont see security doing this knowing the bad publicity it would generate,and maybe cost them their jobs. Unless it came from the top.

As far as I know, Dolan has no grudge against Ewing. Offered him a job coaching G-league, a few years back.

I hear you. If evidence comes out that they let Jay Wright walk but stopped Ewing, then we may have something. Otherwise I see this as a non-issue. However, maybe in hindsight the head of security could've anticipated this and educated his/her staff as to who he is and not to bother him if he doesn't have his credential on him. Maybe radio the rest of the check points to alert them that he's coming and to not detain him? Don't these guys usually have their credential hanging around their neck or clipped to their shirt?

Agree, they clearly f'ed up. Dont believe it was malicious, in this instance. Dolan spoke to Ewing. Glad to hear it.

From the Daily News...

Knicks owner James Dolan spoke with Ewing on Thursday afternoon and “reaffirmed” their “longstanding relationship,” according to an MSG Entertainment

“We all know, respect and appreciate what he means to The Garden and New York,” the statement read. “Good luck to him and his Hoyas in the Big East semi-finals.”

Amen that. I worship Ewing, but here he has been acting like a child. Security rules and access protocols are still there for a reason, you are not supposed to be making decisions on whether to let people in or not on a whim, there is a system of passes, and you follow it. No pass - no entry, whether you are Ewing, Dolan, Spike Lee or Jesus Christ.

If they denied entry to Ewing, but let in, say, Chris Dudley without a pass, then it would have been racism.
