About this book

The Knicks of the 1950s were the nearly men of pro basketball, reaching three consecutive NBA Finals, and losing them all. The Knicks would eventually taste ultimate victory in 1970, as Red Holzman’s team, led by MVP Willis Reed, posted a record 18-game win streak en route to a first NBA Championship, defeating the Lakers 4-3 in the Finals. A second championship would follow, again against the Lakers, three years later. In the 1990s, the Knicks, capitalizing on two Michael Jordan retirements, were a last-second blocked jumpshot away from a third NBA Championship in 1995 against Houston, before becoming the only #8 seed team to ever reach the Finals in 1999, ultimately falling to the San Antonio Spurs.

Team of the decade. After a difficult few years, the 2020/21 NBA season provided renewed hope to the Garden, as Coach of the Year Tom Thibodeau led the Knicks to the playoffs for the first time since 2013. But while the group Thibodeau is building has shown potential, it still has a long way to go to match the great Knicks teams of the 50s, 70s and 90s. Relive those golden decades through the words of the reporters who were there at the time.

The Basketball History of New York Knicks Daily News Edition FAQs

How long will this book take to arrive?

Each of our orders is printed on demand, made special just for you and the reader you’ve created it for! Typically, it takes 1-3 days for our workshops to receive, make, and finally hand each order over to the postal carriers for delivery.

Are the pages real, or reproductions of newspapers?

The pages are scans of original newspaper pages. Every effort has been made to clean up scans to make them as clear as possible. In some instances there will be blemishes and the reproduction quality may not be as clear or precise as copying directly from the actual papers itself. 

What name can I enter in the personalization?

Enter the name as you wish it to be printed on the book. You have a maximum of 13 characters for the first name and surname – which is optional. Please only use standard characters that may be part of someone's name. This include accents. Make sure to double-check your spelling.

Does the book contain every newspaper article about the team?

If we included every article then the book would be too big to print. We have edited the book to include the most interesting articles about their victories, and defeats, to tell the the full story of the team's history.
