Manage episode 365410963 series 3368092
June 11, 1999. Inside Madison Square Garden, Game 6 of the NBA Eastern Conference Finals tips off between the New York Knicks and Indiana Pacers. Hardly anyone expected this Knicks squad to be here — a lockout and a roster overhaul created a season of chaos. Yet somehow, New York stands just one win away from a shot at the title.
Today, the Knicks become the first-ever No. 8 seed to make it to the NBA Finals. How do they overcome so much in-season chaos? And can they capture their first championship since 1973?
Special thanks to our guest: Paul Knepper, Knicks superfan and author of “Knicks of the Nineties: Ewing, Oakley, Starks and the Brawlers That Almost Won It All.”
