More news: Steve Cohen Ripped by Fans After Positive Message Amid Mets Losing Streak
Cohen was having a fun time on the sidelines, laughing and enjoying the game with his Mets hat proudly on, until things took a turn for the worse.
Up double-digits in the fourth quarter, the Knicks choked what seemed to be a straightforward victory as the series heads back to Atlanta. Instead, the Hawks pulled off the comeback behind 32 points from CJ McCollum.
After the game, Knicks fans joined the Mets fans in their united revolt against Cohen and his streak of bad luck wherever he's gone the past few weeks.
Cohen hopes that his fortunes turn around tomorrow, as the Mets start a series against the Minnesota Twins in what could be a legendary nightmarish night in Queens if New York loses their 12th straight.
At least for New York sports fans, neither of their teams made the NHL playoffs for Cohen to curse, either.
