How the Knicks Make It to the NBA Finals
Briefly

The New York Knicks last won an NBA championship in 1973, and their last finals appearance was in 1999 during a lockout season. That year, they entered the playoffs as an underdog but surprisingly advanced to the finals, only to be defeated by San Antonio Spurs. The Knicks' only other finals appearance since '73 came in 1994, where they faced disappointment as well. Currently, with their playoff performance, they have a significant chance at winning the NBA title, particularly with a matchup against the Indiana Pacers looming.
The Knicks' last championship win was in 1973, and their recent playoff success marks their best chance at an NBA title in decades.
Their unexpected path to the finals in 1999 was largely deemed unworthy because of the lockout-shortened season and overall weaker team.
