Subway riders not amused by Cavs

Hoop stars ride subway, only annoy riders

LeBron James and the Cavaliers chose to ride the subway on Monday before their game against the Knicks — and people couldn’t have cared less.

One straphanger, in true New York fashion, even shoved his hand in James’ face after the NBA megastar tried filming him on the train with his cellphone.

“Can you not?” the man asked.

James and company documented the experience on social media, sparking countless tweets and Facebook posts throughout the day.

For locals, though, it was just a typical commute in the pit that is Penn Station.

“So this morning I was on the train and out of nowhere a crowd of ENORMOUS basketball players got on the train and pretty much crushed me,” straphanger James Michael Angelo, whom James tried to film, wrote on Facebook.

“The guy next to me kept nearly elbowing me in the face, I nicely asked him to watch my head,” Angelo said, describing James. “He wasn’t very apologetic, in fact he was kind of a d- -k about it. Then he decided to put me in his movie.”

Angelo apparently found out that the “guy” next to him was James after seeing the uproar on social media.

“If you’d like to know if Lebron James is a d- -k, we’ll this morning he was, and I hadn’t had my coffee yet,” the New Yorker wrote.

The Cavs were on their way back to their hotel after practicing at the Garden when they chose to take the train instead of a bus.

“On our way back from shootaround, decided to take a different type of transportation this time,” James said at the start of the video showing him and Angelo.

And so the squad hit the subway — still decked out in their Cavs gear.

“Trying to look like a real citizen, man,” ex-Knick J.R. Smith said jokingly in another video.

The Knicks blew a big lead, losing to the Cavs 104-101.
