Madison Square Garden brought the stars out at NBA Finals Game 4 between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs. The famed celebrity row featured actors Ben Stiller and Adam Sandler, Knicks alumni Stephon Marbury, Marcus Camby, and Carmelo Anthony, and, of course, legendary filmmaker Spike Lee.

One surprising inclusion on the celebrity row was pop star Taylor Swift. Notably, the Grammy winner attended the Cavaliers game with her fiancé, Travis Kelce in May and seemingly rooted against the Knicks in that series.

Now, after appearing at Madison Square Garden donning Knicks apparel, Swift is being criticized for switching allegiances.
In a viral clip, ESPN analyst Monica McNutt and fellow announcer Tyler Murray were unaware they were still broadcasting as they spoke about Swift, who sat courtside at Madison Square Garden.
"Is that Taylor Swift down there?" McNutt, 36, asked.
"She's not a Knicks fan," McNutt said. "Get out of here, girl."
New Yorkers questioned Swift's loyalty after she attended the Cavaliers game last month.
"Obviously, being a Cleveland sports fan all my life, getting Tay back to Cleveland and showing her my roots is always something I love doing," he explained.
To her credit, Swift has resided in New York since 2014 and has attended several Knicks games over the years.
