Mamdani and James Dolan feud over Knicks Finals security as local businesses feel the squeeze

• NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani and MSG CEO James Dolan are clashing over NYC crowd-control measures.
• MSG canceled its Knicks Finals Game 4 watch party, blaming restrictions imposed by Mamdani.
• Local NYC businesses are suffering financial losses due to heightened security around MSG.

While the bar remained busy during the game itself, he called the closures “definitely a negative” and said businesses closer to the restricted zone were being hurt.
