ON-AIR TANTRUM: Spike Lee Goes On ESPN To Complain He Can’t Use Employee Entrance, Is Being ‘Harassed.’ Knicks Rip Him Apart In Statement.

Appearing on ESPN’s “First Take” on Tuesday afternoon, director and racial activist Spike Lee complained that he is no longer allowed to use the employee entrance (he can use the VIP or general entrance) at Madison Square Garden and said he was being “harassed” by New York Knicks owner James Dolan.

Lee went on the show to talk about his treatment from the Knicks before Monday night’s game. The longtime Knicks fan, during the 18-plus minute segment, said he was asked to re-enter the Garden after he used the employee entrance, which, Lee later admitted, he has been asked to avoid for at least a month.
