TL;DR

Madison Square Garden blasted NYC's security restrictions for Game 4 of the NBA Finals, saying entry limits from 4 p.m., mandatory screenings, and a secured zone around the arena were used as a pretext to curb Knicks fans' celebrations; the plan follows a violent watch party and could hurt nearby businesses, with MSG contending the measures weren't solely about attendance by the President (Trump wasn't at Game 4).
