\n

Everyone is buzzing about the New York Knicks<\/a> going to the NBA Finals, so much so that President Donald Trump says he’s going to head to New York to catch a game.<\/p>\n

Of course, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul<\/a> \u2014 who not too long ago was pleading for big-money ex-New Yorkers to return to the state \u2014 thought she would try to dunk on the president by questioning his Knicks fandom.<\/p>\n

And, in the process, she wound up majorly embarrassing herself.<\/p>\n

President Trump announced his plans on Wednesday, and Hochul was quickly asked for her response.<\/p>\n

TRUMP SAYS HE THINKS HE’LL ATTEND NBA FINALS GAME AS KNICKS CLOSE IN ON LONG-AWAITED CHAMPIONSHIP<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“I\u2019d ask him to name the starting lineup of the 1993 Championship team and see how he does,” Hochul said.<\/p>\n

Oh man, Kathy is coming in hot with the sick burn… if only she got the dates right.<\/p>\n

The Chicago Bulls<\/a> won the NBA Championship in 1993, and the last time the Knicks won it was in 1973.<\/p>\n

NEW YORK KNICKS SWEEP CAVALIERS TO REACH FIRST NBA FINALS SINCE 1999 AFTER DOMINANT GAME 4 BLOWOUT<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

It’s possible that she was talking about the 1994 NBA Finals \u2014 which wrapped up the ’93-’94 season \u2014 which the Knicks lost to the Houston Rockets.<\/p>\n

No matter how you slice it, this is embarrassing. She was either way wrong or trying to pump up a conference championship.<\/p>\n

I mean, even if you ignore the factual disaster that unfolded, is this where politics<\/a> is at? Doing a sports version of, “Oh, you’re wearing a Metallica shirt? Name five albums, and one of them can’t be the Black Album, which is actually called Metallica<\/em>; people forget that.”<\/p>\n

KNICKS FANS ALREADY PAYING NEARLY $280K FOR COURTSIDE NBA FINALS TICKETS AS TEAM NEARS HISTORIC BERTH<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

And not only doing that, but muffing it!<\/p>\n

ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON’T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

I really don’t understand why politicians do this. You’re not going to win any votes by professing to be a bigger Knicks fan than the president, but you might lose them if people think you’re a phony.<\/p>\n

So, how about just steer clear?<\/p>\n

Anyway, it will certainly be interesting to see what happens when the commander in chief heads to Madison Square Garden, where a lot of Knicks fans probably aren’t fans of his.<\/p>\n

I mean, Ben Stiller might blow a gasket… if he’s at the game and not at some dumb dress-up party<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
