New York knicks Team
The New York Knickerbockers nicknamed the Knicks is a professional basketball team that is located in New York City. It is amongst the seven teams that are a member of the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference of the National Basketball Association. They play their games in Madison Square Garden wearing blue, orange and white colored uniforms. To date they have bagged two championships titles, eight Conference Titles and eight Division titles.
It was originally owned by Gulf Western, which sold out to Viacom who sold it to the present owners, i.e. the Cablevision. With regards to the Forbes Magazine information it is the top most expensive basketball franchise in the US and is estimated to be a whooping 608 million dollars. It still plays in the city that it was founded in. the other team to have the honor of still playing in its founding city is the Bolton Celtics. To date it has won several titles. It won ABA's starting game in 1946 and then made three consecutive NBA playoff appearances starting in 1951.
Things were hard for them during the sixties and they repeatedly finished last in the NBA's Eastern Division for many years. In 1962 Wilt Chamberlain a player of the Warriors scored a record 100 points against them and steered his team for a win at 169-147. In the late sixties things changed when the Knicks posted 18 consecutive wins that was a record at that time. It was by far the teams’ best regular season record. Things kept changing for the better in the early 70s too and they managed to win the NBA finals twice. At that time the team included several star players namely Reed, Lucas, Frazier, and Bradley to name a few. They made it to the finals again in 1994 and 1999 but were defeated on both occasions. They defeated the Bullets in the Eastern Division semifinals, the Bucks in the Eastern Division finals and finally the Lakers in seven games to bag their first ever NBA title.
They boast of the highest payroll in the history of NBA at 130 million dollars. After the appointment of a new coach things got bad for them in 2006 and they posted a disappointing 15-37 record. They made several trades and acquisitions which included Davis, Rose and Francis. Some of the players who have now retired include DeBusschere, Ewing, Barnett, McGuire and Bradley to name a few.
In April 2008, Donnie Walsh was signed as the new president. At the end of the 2007-2008 regular season Isiah Thomas was dismissed by Walsh and Mike D'Antoni was officially announced the new head coach for the Knicks in March 2008. D'Antoni became the head coach after signing a four year deal at 24 million dollars for coaching the team.May 20th 2008 saw the Knicks acquire a sixth pick in the 2008 Draft Lottery.
