Travis Kelce tried to hype up the losing Cavaliers with a beer chug \u2014\u00a0in the end the Knicks wore down the Cavaliers and took the spirit of the energetic Kelce. <\/p>\n

Shortly before the fourth quarter of the Knicks\u2019 121-108 Game 3 win over the Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference finals on Saturday night in Cleveland, the camera at Rocket Arena panned to Kelce downing a beer court side as the fans cheered him on.<\/p>\n

Once finished with the beverage, Kelce, an Ohio native, pulled his coat to the side and revealed a Cavaliers shirt and flashed his corresponding team hat to the camera.<\/p>\n

The camera then panned to his fiancee, pop superstar Taylor Swift, facepalming and shaking her head while her song \u201c\u2026Ready for it\u201d played in the background.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t know if his girlfriend is going to like seeing him chugging beers like that,\u201d commentator Richard Jefferson said during the ESPN on ABC broadcast.<\/p>\n

Kelce\u2019s stunt did not prove to help Cleveland in any way, who immediately gave up five points to start the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n

The Knicks wound up rolling past the Cavaliers to go up 3-0 in the series. Game 4 is Monday night.<\/p>\n

Photos later emerged of Kelce with his eyes closed and hat pulled down looking deflated as Swift looked at him sadly.<\/p>\n

The Chiefs tight end was spotted sitting courtside with Swift earlier in Saturday\u2019s game, with the broadcast panning to them midway through the first quarter.<\/p>\n

The two are expected to get married in New York City in the coming weeks, with Page Six previously reporting the wedding will take place on July 3.<\/p>\n

Despite buzz surrounding Kelce\u2019s possible retirement from the NFL before this season, the 36-year-old confirmed in March that he will be suiting up for 2026, and later said how Swift served as a motivating factor for his return.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

\u201cWe share the same love for what we do. Fortunately, we\u2019ve had this desire since we were kids in our selective professions,\u201d Kelce said during an appearance on \u201cThe Pat McAfee Show\u201d in March. <\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s amazing to see her keep going to the table, keep finding new things to write about, keep finding new melodies and things like that, and on top of that, still seeing her have that love and joy in what she does, and yeah, of course, that\u2019s motivating.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s motivating for anyone to see, let alone my fianc\u00e9e, and knowing that I\u2019m going through something where I\u2019m trying to figure out exactly what the future holds for me, something like that definitely motivates me to say, \u2018You know what, I\u2019m not done either,\u2019\u201d Kelce said.<\/p>\n
