An Indiana Pacers fan wearing a Tyrese Haliburton jersey found himself sorely outnumbered against a group of New York Knicks supporters on Friday night after NY booked their ticket to the Eastern Conference Finals.
The Knicks took the Boston Celtics down in six games, blowing them out 119-81 at home and setting off celebrations in the streets.
The Knicks are now set to face the Pacers in the ECF, with the series scheduled to tip off on Wednesday. But one Pacers fan was already ready to go as of Friday night.
Unfortunately, he was alone.

Not the best example of picking your battles.
The Knicks also have home-court advantage in the upcoming finals series, so it’s still not looking good.
