NY Knicks fans’ most hated players they’ve played against: Video

These are New York Knicks fans’ most hated opponents, ranked.

The Knicks are on the cusp of reaching the second round of the NBA playoffs for a third consecutive season as they enter Game 5 tonight versus the Detroit Pistons up 3-1 in the series.

It hasn’t come without controversy, as both Games 3 and 4 in Detroit ended with potential missed calls by the referees that would’ve undoubtedly changed where this series would be heading into tonight’s game at Madison Square Garden.

If the Knicks win tonight, they’ll face the winner of No. 2 seed Boston or No. 7 Orlando in the Eastern Conference semifinals, with the reigning champion Celtics up 3-1 against the Magic, with a potential Game 5 close out matchup also coming tonight at TD Garden in Boston.

Here’s everything you need to know for Knicks-Pistons Game 5, including how to watch, stream, playoff schedule and more for this Eastern conference first round matchup:
