I just cried my ass off watching this. I think the defense chant before the intro is what did it. Been with this team since 89 and im not going anywhere
Those days are done and they aren't coming back. The new seating sucks, the team sucks, the prices suck, the fans that come aren't even fans. It's not the same place it used to be. Glad I got many memories of going to games in 90's. I feel lucky to have that.
So have I. It's a different crowd and atmosphere. I went to a game a month ago. Like 8 seconds left, Knicks down 2 with the ball. Most of the place was still sitting for the final seconds. Don't fucking tell me bro. You don't even see that shit at a Orlando Magic game.
@@american_alien_1583 If the Knicks get Kevin Durant and Zion Williamson, along with Kyrie Irving, and/or Anthony Davis, than you can bet it sure will be again though.
@DG 1 Yeah, but still a bummer the Knicks can't lure star players like they once could have. Only way we'll ever see these days happen at the Garden again will be when "Douche" Dolan finally bites the dust once and for all!
The spring of 1994 at The Garden. It was an amazing two months in NYC. The Rangers winning their first Cup in 54 years, and the Knicks going to Game 7 of the Finals. Losing to Houston was a stinger, the Knicks should've won that series.
If only Starks could have gotten the three point shot off at the end of the sixth game. That of which I'm at least 75% convinced would have gone in, until Hakeem O. just barely got a piece of the ball with the skin of his fingertips. He was on fire that game, and series, until his total 2/18 clunker in Game #7. That or should have at the very least, passed it to Ewing, who could have gotten an easy two, to force OT as well.
@@marcs3145 It's too bad Starks suddenly forgot how to shoot in Game #7, when he couldn't hit the broad side of a barn then. I knew the Knicks chances were done after Game #6, to the point where I couldn't even watch all of the seventh game, with how devastating that loss was, and pretty much saw it coming that weren't going to win it. I was not at all surprised to wake up and see that they lost the game and series the next day as well.
@@marcs3145 And even that game was fairly close too, despite knowing all along that Houston was pretty much going to win it, which they obviously did though.
@@williamarroyo1109 LOL. Another Bulls fan here, yeah, but they were great battles and I miss those days, and more importantly the players and how the game was played.😥
I'm a Chicago Bulls fan, and I remember HATING the Knocks back in the 90's. But even with that rivalry, the MSG ROCKED when the intros and crowd rocked the place back in the 90's. That 'defense" chant...AWESOME. I tip my hat to Knicks fans. We had a rivalry, but the Bulls vs. Knicks was always hit.
Oh he was there that night. Spike took Reggie's choke sign so personal in gm5 that *took a plane to Indy, paid 15K for 2 seats to gm6. Starks ran up to the man, slaps hands in victory.* Spike doesnt miss game 7 with the Knicks. He even went down to Houston for gm6 & 7. He's 1st on the Mt Rushmore of superfans
@@jamw8022 I'm sure he was a decent person, even if he pretty much sucked with the Knicks though. Sadly what happened at the end of Game #5 in the 1993 E.C.F. will forever be his lasting legacy, which forever earned him the ire of Knicks fans for life too.
@@freakyfornash oh, I'm not denying that that was a defining moment in his career, but hey, game 7, Starks.. people never let him live that down either. But I will always love both of them for what they brought to my life :)
@@jamw8022 Yeah, and that 2/18 stat in Game #7 did tarnish his legacy. That despite even if Knicks fans forgave him far more for that, than Smith's blunder a year earlier though.
@@freakyfornash oh, no doubt, Starks got a much bigger pass on Game 7 than Smith got on that one play, I would never deny that :) You know what? I actually really like "talking" to someone that knows their Shh from back then and can have a decent back and forth and know what they are talking about :)
