Favorite Knick Game

[Mr. J]

What was your favorite Knick game that you have watched. There are so many to choose from but, which one or onessticks out for you the most. My favorite one was back in '99 when Johnson had that 3 point play. The Garden was rocking! I remeber watching that game when I was 9 spending the night over my cousins house. My uncle had this thing anyime the Knicks won we had Ice cream and when they lost we went to bed early. He was soo happy about that win he gave us the biggest desert I ever had in my life! I can still feel full from it now!

I was not really a total Knicks fan like I am today I just rooted for them back then. Now that I am one, I can appreciate those kinds of momments more. I sometimes see it on TV and although I know the result, it never gets old for me. I still feel like one of those thousands of Knick fans at MSG, anxiously awaiting the fate of a team that beat all odds in '99. Btw, sorry for that childhood momment. Just a little Knicks history of me

Miami Heat vs New York Knicks were always good games. Really hard to choose I guess .....


hmm ... on tape I have 2002-03 NBA season, Orlando Magic vs New York Knicks (date unsure) it was a double OT game where Latrell Sprewell hit four straight 3's to win the game, that man went off!

It was the same night when the hang up Patrick Ewings jersey, so it was a special night, it was good to see that the game finished in a close battle also.
All the NBA legends were there, from Charles Barkely to Michael Jordan, great night, great game.

Oh, I also liked Game 5, Round 1 NBA Playoffs, when Allan Houston hit the buzzer beater to advance the 8th seeded New York Knicks. Too bad they lost to the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals.
Great Playoff run nonetheless.

I remember that game. It was February 28th 2003. It was a great game. SPrewell had that tripple double!

my fav knick game is the one against the mavericks

 

[Mr. J]

Which one? Are you talking about the Knicks down by 20 forcing OT? I remember that one really well. It was Al Trautwig saying Walker with the inbound--Marbury with the steal! Houston wide open for 3...BANG!!! tie game. Too bad we lost that one in OT. It was definitely a good one.

Mine would have to be...I dont know. There's so many of them...one of my very favorites would have to be the game against the Lakers a couple of seasons ago. When Allan Houston scored 53 points. Kobe was trying to keep up. He scored 40 something points but it was in a losing effort. An incredible performance by Houston. He took his game to another level that year too bad he was injured shortly afterwards.

That game was pretty good too. Houston was just killing LA! I remember he put this behind the back move on Rick Fox and layed it up. I remember at the end of the half they were up by like 10 and Houston was staring someone down and J'd someone up with a 3 pointer. But, George hit some lucky half court buzzer beater. We won the game though. Then Allan Houston dropped 50 again on the Bucks that season. If we had a healthy McDyess we would have made the playofffs. If Houston can recover to that form like in 03 watchout who ever we face in the conference finals!

It wasnt Rick Fox it was Derek Fisher. I remember that play perfectly. I think it was off a steal, Houston went staight to the basket, Fisher tried to go for the steal to get it back, Houston went behind the back, the crowd ooooo'd and he finger rolled it I believe. Houston ripped Kobe a new one that game. Wasnt that pretty? Let's keep our fingers crossed and hope he can return to something like that form.
