Ben Stiller's Photobomb of Reggie Miller Goes Viral Ahead of Pacers-Knicks

Ben Stiller has been a Knicks fan for quite a while. This year's team has given the 58-year-old American actor plenty of reason to cheer. 

However, a large contingent of NBA fans question whether or not Stiller is a true fan or if he's just riding along the bandwagon. We now know the answer.

Ahead of Wednesday night's Pacers at Knicks NBA Playoff game, Pacers legend Reggie Miller conducted a pregame interview. Funny enough, the segment was about the historic rivalry between the Knicks and Pacers and the role Miller played in it back in the day. 

“People are like, ‘Aren’t you worried about going back to New York City and calling a game?’ No. I’ve owned this city, I’ve owned this building,” Miller said on the broadcast. “So why would I be worried about walking out there?

“I love when New Yorkers come up to me in the airport of walking around the city and the first thing that comes out of their mouth is, ‘I hate you. I really do detest you.’ ”

During Miller's rant, a perfectly timed moment unfolded. Stiller walked by, pointed at Miller, and shouted something.

Miller and Stiller settled things later on, as the two were seen interacting courtside before the game. Miller even had a moment with Spike Lee. 

Playoff basketball's the best. Also, how great is it that the Knicks are relevant again?
