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 Anthony'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. The Knicks most recently reached the Eastern Conference Finals in the 2025 NBA playoffs, marking their first appearance in the conference finals since the 1999-2000 season.

he atmosphere is amazing the fans are fantastic. we came from greece to see antetokounmpo (we supported the backs) and we liked that we were sitting among nicks fans and we all had a great time!!!! a wonderful sports celebration well done
The seats are good but the amount of fans crossing in front of you constantly is bad both directly in front behind the last row of the sectioj in front, or across your aisle multiple times yo.go to other sections and will ruin your experience. We had our drinks knocked over twice. Get row 2.. no one will cross your aisle.
Madison square Garden is the best place for Knicks fans
Exhilarating! Great game & the Garden was rocking’!
perfect! everything is so good! the game, the food, the staff
An excellent experience and something I’ll never forget. I had very high seats and don’t like heights. A lovely lady (didn’t catch her name but had purple through her hair) looked after me and was absolutely wonderful totally calmed me down and just a lovely person. I was in section 322, row 1, seat 22. Go Knicks.
Our Seats were Great! My grandchildren and daughter enjoyed seeing all the players. All the mini shows were fantastic during the breaks. The Knicks played Great! We are definitely going back!
My partner and I went to the game and enjoyed every second of it! I also proposed during half-time, which will make this an unforgettable memory! Once a Knick...Always a Knick!
It was one of the best sport show that I ever saw.
Great experience, the game was great, the check-in process was fast and easy. The entertainment during the commercial breaks great! All I can say it was a overall great experience!! Go Knicks!!😍
