Wu-Tang Clan’s RZA
WE BROUGHT MSG BACK FROM THE DEAD
… Before Knicks Comeback

Wu-Tang Clan is being hailed by New York Knicks’ fans as the savior of their historic NBA Finals comeback win … and while RZA wouldn’t say they helped the Knicks triumph, he tells TMZ the iconic group brought a spark to a deflated Madison Square Garden.
Here’s the deal … the Knicks were getting destroyed by the San Antonio Spurs at halftime of Game 4 when Wu took the floor for a performance that got the place rockin’ and rolling.
RZA tells TMZ … the group had to dig deep … because they were also super bummed by the Spurs having their way with their team … so they changed some lyrics to include the Knicks in their songs to make sure fans got back in the mood … and the rest is, well, history.
Band members had the option to go up to a suite after the performance … but RZA told us he wasn’t interested in watching from the suite — and he was going to be near the action courtside, cheering with the other stars.
With MSG back from the dead after a dreadful first half, the energized crowd cheered on the Knicks as they stormed back from a 29-point hole to stage the biggest comeback win in NBA Finals history and take a commanding 3-1 lead in the best-of-7 series.
As for whether Wu-Tang would go to a possible Game 6 at MSG … RZA and Method Man have already said “Knicks in 5,” so that’s that.
