The Beginning

The Knicks are the Charter members of Basketball Association of America (BAA), which became the NBA in 1949, Boston Celtic and the Knicks are the two founder teams that are still playing in their original city. On 1st November 1946, the Knicks won their first BAA game. Since then, Knicks tickets have been a rage. They were in the NBA Finals in 1951, 1952, and 1953. The Knicks captured titles in 1970 and 1973 with six future Hall of Fame players: centers, Willis Reed and Jerry Lucas, guards Walt Frazier and Earl Monroe, and forwards Dave DeBusschere and Bill Bradley. The Knicks also reached the NBA Finals in 1994 and 1999, but lost both times.

Ned Irish, The founder member of the Knicks team, ran basketball operations at Madison Square Garden. He started the Knicks in 1946 as one of the 11 original BAA teams. His vision was to make hot cakes synonymous with Knicks tickets. Joe Lapchick was the head coach in 1947. He led the team to five playoff appearances at NBA in 1949. The Knicks had a 36-30 win-loss record at the 1950-51 season and were also in the NBA Finals, where they lost to the Rochester Royals. The Knicks were the first to bring in a black player into the league that year, forward Nathaniel "Sweetwater" Clifton. He became one of the top NBA rebounders. With guard Dick McGuire and center Harry "the Horse" Gallatin, New York once again advanced to the NBA Finals in 1952 and 1953, though it lost both the series to Minneapolis Lakers.

The Logo

The original logo of Father Knickerbocker, dribbling a basketball has seen many revisions. Whilst using the classic round ball logo, under which the Knicks won both their NBA championships, a second one ball in the box logo was used for Knicks tickets and club merchandise. The current triangular logo with three-dimensional modernized lettering was unveiled in 1992. It was altered slightly to include the word New York in it.
