NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced the city deployed Knicks Game 4 on LinkNYC screens throughout the city after MSG owner James Dolan canceled the planned outdoor watch party on Wednesday. The cancellation stemmed from a dispute between Dolan and the mayor over security restrictions — Dolan cited city limitations while the mayor blamed the MSG owner for requesting the permit then backing out. The move echoes successful watch parties earlier in the Knicks' playoff run when thousands gathered outside the Garden, but this time fans will watch on city screens instead of street gatherings, which were barred under NYPD security protocols for the NBA Finals game.
