New York Knicks History
The Knicks were established in 1946 and were one of the founding members of the Basketball Association of America, which became the NBA after merging with the National Basketball League in 1949. The Knicks and Boston Celtics are the only two original NBA teams still located in their original cities.
The Knicks saw early success, advancing to the NBA Finals in three consecutive years from 1950 to 1953. They lost all three series, twice to the Minneapolis Lakers and once to the Rochester Royals.The franchise’s next successful era began in the late '60s, under the tutelage of head coach Red Holzman.They won 54 games in Holzman's first full season as head coach in the 1968–69 season, then improved to 60 wins the following year. The Knicks won their first NBA Championship in 1970, defeating the Los Angeles Lakers in seven games. Holzman won Coach of the Year, while center Willis Reed won NBA MVP and Finals MVP.
Holzman and Reed led the Knicks back to the finals in two of the next three seasons, facing the Lakers both times. They split those two series, winning their second championship in the 1972–73 season.
The Knicks did not experience success again until the '90s, when future Hall of Famer Patrick Ewing led them back to the NBA Finals in 1993–94 and 1998–99. They lost both series, first in seven games to the Houston Rockets, then in five games to the San Antonio Spurs.
The Knicks traded for star Carmelo Anthony from the Denver Nuggets in 2011. He proved to be an elite scorer, but team success eluded the Knicks. They made it to the playoffs three times in Carmelo's seven-year tenure with the team, winning one series in 2013.
The Knicks reached the playoffs once again during the 2020–21 season, reinvigorated by power forward Julius Randle, who was awarded the NBA’s Most Improved Player distinction in 2021, and advanced to the Eastern Conference semifinals in 2023 with the additional firepower of newly acquired point guard Jalen Brunson.?

Wonderful experience! It was not just a basketball match, but a show!
My daughters and I bought Section 3 row 5 seats for my husband for his birthday and the night was great even though the Knicks lost by 1 point. It was a very exciting game and we had great folks near us watching the game, The seats were great as we could almost feel the sweat from the players. Great night!
Fantastic game. Great venue. The all around experience was brilliant.
I was amazed by the fact that for almost 2h straight there wasn’t a minute where there was nothing we could do or see it was incredible. Best vibe i ever felt
It was my first time at a basketball game and it was definitely good vibes . I sat in section 316 -row 1 ..seat 1 and 2 . They were good seats and we had a good view…
I AM FRENCH AND I COME IN US EVERY YEARS. ALWAYS FOR NBA OR NHL GAMES. VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE. ONLY ONE PROBLEM / THE PRICES VERY EXPENSIVE.
As much as I love the Knicks it is very expensive for the average person to afford the tickets.
Great seats, great atmosphere and an amazing experience- a fantastic end to our NYC trip :)
Awesome experience and a wonderfull night! Kk rocked
First time attending a sports game in the U.S and it didn’t disappoint. The views of the court were fantastic but the interaction with the fans was awesome. My 17 year old so and I thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish.
