[NY Times] The Knicks Are Finally Good Again. And New York City Loves Them for It.

being good is just the icing on the cake. the story of overcoming injuries, the nova connection, jalen becoming HIM, close games, and beyond is what makes this team so compelling.
Is it generally hard to find jerseys this time of year? I’m trying so hard to get my hands on a navy Hart jersey but there’s nothing around… any direction would be appreciated
Anyone got a non-paywall link?
It’s not that they are good. They are giving it effort and putting it all out there collectively. This hasn’t been seen since the 90s teams.
Successful sports team is beloved by their home town. Story at 11.
New York never stopped loving the Knicks even when we sucked
You would think NYT would fact check their reports…
Brunson isn’t 6′ 2″ lol
with the knicks and rangers this year it feels like ’94 all over again
The part about the laker fan who converted to Knick fan is truly a testament to how fun this team is and how passionate our fan base is.
Peeks out, hatehatehatehatehate, back in. Going in the right direction! LGK
Outside msg after a playoff win is WILD. I was there after game 6 vs philly. Had a blast
i feel like this was written for people who have never seen a basketball game
“Point guard for the Knickerbockers is a venerated position in the city, like conductor of the New York Philharmonic, manager of the Yankees or head chef at Gage and Tollner. It’s even up there with being the mayor, although Brunson has no known detractors.”
At its best the Times is like a well dressed guy with wire rim glasses and a glass of wine, whom you realize is actually sneaky funny
The Knicks truly unite NY more than any other team, maybe the rangers? That’s because the entire city roots for the knicks. It really isn’t split like it is in baseball and football.
We always loved the Knicks. Even when they sucked.
