New York’s Madison Square Garden has hosted some of the best shows in the world in the worlds of sports, as well as entertainment. This esteemed hall has witnessed Ali’s first fight as well as Rocky Marciano’s last, hosted sold-out crowds for Michael Jackson twice, and saw some of the most astonishing games in the NBA. Here are some of the greatest basketball games held in Madison Square garden.
Knicks VS Lakers, NBA Finals Game 7 (1970) In a grueling display of attrition, the series was dragged out to a game 7 by the Knicks. Led by Willis Reed and Walt Frazier, the Knicks were able to seal the championship over the Lakers after an upsetting game 6 loss where Reed was unable to play. The team won with a score of 113 – 99.
Knicks VS Bulls, The Dunk (1993) During the NBA playoffs, the Knicks faced off against Michael Jordan and the Chicago bulls. The Knicks were up by 3 with 50 seconds remaining when John Starks dealt a decisive dunk over both Michael Jordan and Horace Grant. This sealed the win for the Knicks in spectacular fashion and was also to be John Stark’s greatest career moment.
Knicks VS Bulls, Return of MJ (1995) After a year in hiatus, Michael Jordan returned brandishing his classic number 45 jersey. It was his first game and was pretty much a statement telling everyone that he was back. Jordan scored 55 points during the game and eventually won the championship that year.
