Swifties respond to Knicks’ Tyler Kolek after ‘fake’ Taylor Swift accusations
Yahoo Sports

Tyler Kolek broke the cardinal rule of the internet this week: never, under any circumstances, question Taylor Swift.
Tyler Kolek poked the bear big time during an NBA 2K stream with teammate Deuce McBride. When asked which courtside celebrity was the biggest phony, Kolek called out Taylor Swift without blinking, suggesting her fandom is performative and just an excuse to be seen.
However, he did caveat it by stating that she is a busy person, if that helps. And he even laughed that her fans would come after him, and right on cue, Swifties flooded his mentions.
Q “Who’s the fakest celeb fan you’ve seen courtside?”
Tyler Kolek: “Maybe Taylor Swift?”
Deuce McBride: “I would agree…Swifties not gonna like that answer.”
Kolek: “I’m gonna get some hate…I guess she’s got a lot going on…can’t come all the time…but it’s a little performative.”
Swifties call out Tyler Kolek over fake comments
The Knicks front office panicked and scrambled into immediate damage control, dropping an official statement reminding everyone that Taylor Swift has rep’d the team for years and that Madison Square Garden loves having her.
And the Swifties weren’t far behind, as they jumped to the defense of their icon.
One said: “Can you only be a fan if you go to the arena? I dare say most sports fans never get to a game.”
“If there’s one thing Taylor and Tyler have in common is that they were both sitting court side during the finals.” Another didn’t hold back.
This supporter even said: “Speak less…” Followed by a screenshot of his zero point game recently.
“Is this cause they weren’t invited to the wedding?” Said another Swiftie.
Another savage message: “He’s just jealous that Taylor Swift (a decade long Knicks fan) got more court time at her MSG wedding than he’s seen in his entire career as a backup bench warmer.”
Swifties pulled up with the receipts in record time, digging up photos of Taylor rocking a vintage Knicks tee as far back as 2014. Fans even dragged out old interviews, wedding tie-ins, and decades of Garden history, proving that when you come at Taylor, her fanbase keeps the archives locked and loaded.
