The story of the New York Knicks

The New York Knickerbockers, commonly called the New York Knicks, are an American professional basketball team based in the New York City borough of Manhattan. The Knicks compete in the National Basketball Association (NBA) as a member of the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference. The team plays its home games at Madison Square Garden, an arena it shares with the New York Rangers of the National Hockey League (NHL). They are one of two NBA teams in New York City, the other being the Brooklyn Nets. Alongside the Boston Celtics, the Knicks are one of two original NBA teams still in their original cities.

Established in 1946 by Ned Irish, the New York Knicks were among the founding members of the Basketball Association of America (BAA), which merged with the National Basketball League (NBL) in 1949 to form the NBA. Under their first head coach, Joe Lapchick, the Knicks were a perennial playoff contender, reaching three consecutive NBA Finals between 1951 and 1953 but never winning a championship. After Lapchick resigned in 1956, the franchise entered a prolonged decline, reaching the playoffs once between 1956 and 1966.

The Knicks returned to prominence in the late 1960s under head coach Red Holzman, winning their first NBA championships in 1970 and 1973. They made six playoff appearances in the 1980s but did not reach the NBA Finals. In the 1990s, led by Hall of Fame center Patrick Ewing and the team's physical, defense-oriented style under head coaches Pat Riley and Jeff Van Gundy, the Knicks reached the NBA Finals in 1994 and 1999, but did not win a championship. After Ewing's departure, the Knicks entered another prolonged period of playoff absences, and although Hall of Fame forwards Carmelo Anthony and Amar'e Stoudemire led the team to a division title in 2013 (their first in 19 years), the team suffered their worst-ever regular season records thereafter.

The Knicks are one of the NBA’s original franchises, and Madison Square Garden is central to their identity. Championship teams in 1970 and 1973 remain major reference points. New York’s broader basketball culture—from neighborhood courts to college gyms—gives the franchise a context that extends well beyond its record.

Guide updated October 2, 2026: championship context, coaching and Madison Square Garden entry guidance checked.

The Knicks after their 2026 championship

New York won the 2026 NBA title, defeating San Antonio in five games. Mike Brown is the Knicks’ head coach.

The 2026 title adds a new chapter alongside the 1970 and 1973 teams discussed above. For readers moving between eras, the important distinction is between the championship roster and the players available for the next game. Use Jalen Brunson’s profile for his individual record and the current roster section for the team’s player links.

Getting to Madison Square Garden

Madison Square Garden sits above Penn Station. The 1, 2, 3, A, C and E subway lines serve 34th Street–Penn Station, making rail a practical starting point for a game-day trip. Check current service and the return journey before setting out, especially for late finishes. The station and the arena have separate access routes, so follow the entry instructions on your ticket once you arrive.

Does Madison Square Garden require a clear bag?

No. The standard venue policy does not require clear bags, but any bag must fit comfortably under your seat. Bags larger than 22 × 14 × 9 inches are prohibited. Being under that maximum does not remove the under-seat requirement.

The venue’s bag guidance says there is no check area for bags, coats or other personal belongings. Arrange luggage storage before arriving rather than bringing travel bags to the turnstiles. Guests needing an accommodation can contact MSG Guest Relations at 212-465-6225. Event-specific rules can change, so check the instructions for your selected Knicks game.

Open the full Knicks schedule for dates, opponents and venues, and use the official ticket directory to reach the team’s sales pages. Before making plans around a particular player, check availability reports; a roster listing does not guarantee game-night participation.
