Knicks Fever Hits 53-Year High

New York City is bracing for chaos as the Knicks are on the verge of their first championship in 53 years, with thousands of fans expected to converge on the area. The team's owner, James Dolan, has been at odds with the city and police department over security measures, and it remains to be seen how the city will handle the influx of fans.

The Knicks' remarkable feat of 14 wins in 15 games since April 23 has drawn fans from across the city, with many making playoff pilgrimages to Madison Square Garden. The team's watch party outside the arena, if held, will add an extra layer of complexity to an already crowded and chaotic scene.

The match kicks off about three hours before the Knicks game, and traffic and transit restrictions extend to Manhattan,with soccer fans returning to the city by train arriving at Penn Station - right underneath the Garden.
