As one of the more notable franchises in sports history, the Knicks commonly have celebrities courtside at their game. Among the people who can regularly be seen at Madison Square Garden is longtime comedian Sam Morril. In such a heated matchup like this, he's even taken his fandom to social media.

While appearing on Casuals The Podcast, Morril did not hold back on his disdain for Tyrese Haliburton. He sounded off on an instance last year where the Pacers star brought a second pair of clothes to troll Knicks fans just in case they won that night.

"I mean Haliburton is definitely a poser," Morril said. "I thought last year when he showed up in a different outfit and left in the Reggie Miller choke shirt. Just wear the choke shirt to the f****** game If you're gonna be that guy.

Down 14 with under three minutes to go, Tyrese Haliburton and company looked all but finished in Game 1. However, things quickly changed when Aaron Nesmith got hot from beyond the arc and quickly cut into the deficit. Haliburton then capped things off with his last-second shot that sent things into an uproar. Originally it had looked like he won the game for Indiana, but upon review, his shot was a two-pointer because one of his feet didn't get behind the line.
