A debate over Knicks fan behavior quickly turned political after Michael Rapaport took aim at Zohran Mamdani<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After the New York Knicks<\/a> lost to the San Antonio Spurs on Monday night, a large crowd outside Madison Square Garden became chaotic as fights broke out and the New York Police Department became involved.<\/p>\n

“These ain\u2019t Knick fans or Basketball fans,” he wrote on X alongside a video<\/a> showing the chaos after the conclusion of Game 3 of the NBA playoffs. “This is embarrassing for NYC, D— STAIN ZORON MANDAMI refer to this as ‘kids being kids’ Not on my watch, RAPAPORT 2029,” Rapaport wrote.<\/p>\n

Mamdani’s office responded to Rapaport’s criticism by stressing that assaults on police officers and other postgame violence will not be tolerated.<\/p>\n

“New Yorkers are understandably passionate about the Knicks, and the overwhelming majority of fans watched the game last night in ways that were both safe and fun,” Mayor\u00a0Mamdani\u00a0spokesperson Sam Raski told Fox News Digital. “But the fights and other disruptive incidents \u2013 including assaults on police officers \u2013 in various parts of the city are unacceptable and will not be tolerated.”<\/p>\n

“As the NBA finals<\/a> continue, Mayor Mamdani wants all New Yorkers to celebrate and enjoy this run across the city while respecting one another,” the statement continued.<\/p>\n

“I never thought that I would even consider running for mayor of New York City, and I will do it with the best intentions. And I won\u2019t do it the way any other political person has ever done it,” Rapaport told Chris Cuomo during an appearance on News Nation<\/u><\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The only way to beat this guy is to make it and take it with New York City street fight mentality.”<\/p>\n

“There\u2019s no way to out-nice him. There\u2019s no way out-slick him. I think that he\u2019s the greatest bull cr—-r in the history of politicians \u2026 and that\u2019s saying a lot,” he continued.<\/p>\n

“But New York City needs to do something. We need to plan right now because 2029 is around the corner, and, yes, I\u2019m running for mayor of New York City. And I will only drop out until I feel like there\u2019s somebody who\u2019s more qualified that could actually beat Zohran the moron<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“My bark is a lot louder than my bite,” he added. “There’s no way to out-finesse this guy, out-smile this guy. It has to be a dogfight. It has to be ugly, and that’s what I will do in my campaign.”<\/p>\n

Rapaport has been critical of Mamdani since the first-term mayor took office in January.<\/p>\n

The “Only Murders in the Building” star had harsh words for the mayor after a snowstorm left NYC buried<\/a> for over a week in February. “A week after the snowstorm and this is what we got Zoron the Shoveler! Filthy black snow, garbage soup, ice rinks on every corner, cars buried like fossils,” he wrote on Instagram at the time.<\/p>\n
