new york knicks...

I grew up in Seattle, Washington and the first team I really enjoyed as a kid was the Knicks team of the 70's with Walt "Clyde" Frazier,  Willis Reed,  Earl Monroe, Dave DeBusschere, Bill Bradley, Jerry Lucas, Phil Jackson, Dean Meminger, etc...   Coached by the legendary Red Holzman.   They won NBA Championships in 1971 and 1973.

Now, with Jeremy Lin on the Knicks,  I am once again a Knicks fan about 40 years later.   Okay, I liked the Knickerbockers with Patrick Ewing a bit.

The Knicks are 1/2 game out the final playoff berth in the Eastern Conference behind the Milwaukee Bucks.
