A Philadelphia television reporter was abruptly surrounded by jubilant New York Knicks supporters on May 10, 2026, moments after the 76ers were eliminated in a series sweep.
Video of the incident shows a loud group of Knicks fans pressing in on the journalist, waving team gear and shouting in celebration of the victory. The commotion briefly drowned out the live report.
Across the same scene, frustrated 76ers followers could be heard lamenting the end of their team’s season. One recurring chant captured on camera called for a major shake-up: “Let Kyle Lowry coach,” a reference to the veteran guard and Philadelphia native.
The quick shift from post-game analysis to chaotic celebration underscored the drastically different emotions on display as the Knicks advanced and the 76ers’ season came to an abrupt close.
