Dolan says banned Knicks fan set up an 'ambush'

Knicks owner James Dolan said the fan who confronted him and told him to "sell the team" after New York's loss to the Sacramento Kings on Saturday has been banned from Madison Square Garden.

On "The Michael Kay Show" on 1050 ESPN New York on Tuesday, Dolan called the confrontation an "ambush" and said the fan sold the video to TMZ.

"The ban is only coming from the fact that we now have learned that he planned it," Dolan said. "They were stalking me. You can't do that in Madison Square Garden. You are not allowed to stalk the owner and then confront him like that.
