Gemini GOD he’s never going to sell. Not a $3.8 Billion dollar franchise that makes hundreds of millions per year in profits, including owning the MSG itself. At best we could get him to pass it on to a family member, as the face of the team.

It does matter if they put in a new rule. You have to abide by it. Others paid alot of money throughout the years too.

[@dsa5820]

Jvon Burgess no it doesn’t matter. if someone has paid paid 10 million for your tickets, YES rules matter, but i would instead let him go in through the entrance he always uses, and then at the game or after the game TELL him that hey man pls don’t use that entrance. if he does it again, i’ll gently tell him again, that’s what respecting your guests is about... he ain’t some criminal or some dubious personality, he’s SPIKE LEE, the greatest KNICKS fan ever?!?

@@BIGJERSEY908 it's as simple as a door entrance, they have never informed him about this rule but if he doesn't show up for a game they'd call him and ask what's up

[@FecalMatador]

Jvon Burgess Spike’s whole point was the he wasn’t informed of the rule change until he was in the arena and going to his seat. That’s why the elevator incident happened. He said on First Take that if he’s a day late on his deposit for his season tickets, they blow up his phone, but they couldn’t call, text, or email him about a policy change in advance of the game. That was the issue

Dan Gilbert made his money selling subprime mortgages to poor people, he is still a POS. Also he tried to use Lebron as a kind of sideshow attraction instead of building a team around him from 2003 to 2010 because Gilbert was trying to be a cheap skate owner.
