The Knicks-Maccabi Tel Aviv Game Gets Weird

The Knicks-Maccabi Tel Aviv charity game at the Garden turned bizarre when the Maccabi coach Pini Gershon refused to leave the court after being ejected by the replacement referees after picking up his second technical foul midway through the third quarter.

The game was delayed 10 minutes as Garden security, a top Israeli rabbi, the referees, players and his coaching staff tried to convince the stubborn white-haired Gershon to leave. He was finally escorted off the court to cheers from the pro-Maccabi crowd at the Garden. The Knicks were leading by 20 points when Geshon picked up two quick technicals, which is an automatic ejection.

Watch Pini Gershon get stubborn at the (1:12) mark, after the jump.
