If so - then this event clearly has the support of each of the owners of these teams and as a result, should be boycotted.
For myself, I lost interest in the NBA years ago but passively follow the Knicks progress in the papers, of which I will now allocate that time to spend more time here!
That’s the players and management that can’t have any contact with each other, and if they attend the same event they can barely talk to each other.
