Knicks say Kurt Rambis was hacked when he liked porn tweet
The New York Knicks fired their previous head coach amid some uncomfortable rumors, and they have already been tasked with answering questions about their interim head coach and inappropriate behavior.
Over the weekend, Rambis “liked” a photo on Twitter that featured a woman masturbating. Rambis claims he did not click the little heart icon on that tweet or a separate tweet from a money-lending site, and Knicks VP of Public Relations Jonathan Supranowitz told the New York Daily News on Monday that the coach’s account was compromised.
“Kurt did not like those items on his Twitter page and we worked with Twitter to make sure the situation did not happen again,” Supranowitz said.
As our friend Lana Berry pointed out, the hackers must have also followed a couple of racy accounts to make it look like Rambis is into that kind of stuff.

We have no idea why a person who successfully hacked Rambis’ account would do something that subtle. If you remember, an MLB pitcher favorited a bunch of pornographic tweets a couple years back and later said he was embarrassed by it. Rambis was hacked, of course, so he has nothing to be ashamed of.
