Spike Lee managed to attend Knicks’ Derrick Rose press conference

For your average fan, introductory press conferences are generally something you catch on TV or stream online. You also have the option of following the quotes on Twitter and, in some markets, listening on on the team’s flagship radio station. There’s no chance you get to attend one and meet the player being introduced, though.

Of course, Spike Lee is not your average fan. The Knicks superfan managed to find his way into the New York Knicks’ introductory Derrick Rose press conference.

Lee even got a photo with the man himself, which he immediately shared on his Instagram.

There Is A "ROSE" In Da Garden-Madison Square Garden-Da World's Most Famous Arena In Da Greatest City In Da World. Don't Hate-Appreciate. ORANGE AND BLUE SKIES AGAIN. YA-DIG? SHO-NUFF.

Lee, of course, has skipped the Oscars to go to Knicks games before, so it’s not that much of a surprise he managed to find his way in here. We’re guessing that the next time Rose hits a game-winning shot, Lee’s reaction will be a whole lot different than it was here a few years back.
