There’s no place in sports like New York.
In this From the KFTV Archives mini-episode, Xavier McDaniel tells a story that perfectly captures Knicks fandom. One night at Madison Square Garden, a fan calls him “trash.” By the end of the game, after delivering on the court, that same fan is calling him a hero.
It’s a timeless lesson on pressure, performance, and why playing in New York demands toughness — but rewards those who show up when it matters.
