A teen was beaten into a coma by a brute bellowing \u201cSpurs in 7\u201d during a Midtown livestreamed brawl as Game 4 of the NBA finals neared its triumphant end for the Knicks, cops and sources said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The 17-year-old victim was part of a group gathered on West 35th Street near Eighth Avenue \u2014 a short walk from Madison Square Garden \u2014 around 11:45 p.m. Wednesday when a rabble-rouser in a black-and-white striped shirt declared, \u201cSpurs are up right now. We\u2019re winning. Spurs in 7,\u201d law enforcement sources said.<\/p>\n

That set off a Knicks fan in the crowd, who snapped back, \u201cF\u2013k the Spurs. Suck my d\u2013k,\u201d\u00a0the sources said.<\/p>\n

While the teen victim was not the one who made that comment, he was with the Knicks fan\u2019s crew \u2014 and a violent brawl erupted where he soon became the target, the sources said.<\/p>\n

He was pummeled by a ruthless mob, before the initial Spurs fan picked him up and threw him on the ground, according to the sources.<\/p>\n

The entire violent ordeal was streamed on the PRISM app.<\/p>\n

\u201cWait, wait, chill chill,\u201d\u00a0 a handful of onlookers said as the violence heated up, in front of a food cart.<\/p>\n

\u201cI should\u2019ve killed this n\u2014a, right? I should\u2019ve f\u2014ked this n\u2013a up,\u201d the initial aggressor could be heard saying.<\/p>\n

Dozens of bystanders either filmed and did nothing, or were too engrossed in the final tense moments of the game to get involved.<\/p>\n

But others seemed to have been distracted by the brawl and missed the Knicks\u2019 historic 107-106 comeback win, until a roar went up in the crowd.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s the score? What happened?\u201d people could be heard saying.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The badly battered teen, who sources say is from Connecticut, suffered a seizure and went into a coma, cops said.<\/p>\n

He was rushed to Bellevue Hospital, where he eventually came out of the coma and was listed in critical but stable condition, police said.<\/p>\n

Police were still looking for the black-and-white clad attacker and released his photo.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It was not immediately clear whether the violence broke out at an organized watch party.<\/p>\n

But Madison Square Garden canceled a planned Knicks watch party outside the arena hours before Game 4 \u2014 as owner James Dolan said neither Mayor Zohran Mamdani nor NYPD Commissioner Tisch was experienced enough to handle the major event.<\/p>\n

The parties have been raucous during the Knicks\u2019 magical playoff run, but at times some fans have turned unruly and even violent, leading to arrests.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

After Game 3, a rowdy mob pummeled a Spurs fan and snatched his jersey in a viral caught-on-camera beatdown, cops said.<\/p>\n

No one has been arrested in that brutal mugging.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Post-Game 4 shenanigans included a wild mob \u2014 including at least one in blue and orange Knicks merch \u2014 launching chairs at a Midtown Five Guys employee, leaving him bloodied.<\/p>\n
