Amid gloomy late-January weather, with Gotham facing multiple political problems and sports fans licking their wounds over disappointing Giants and Jets seasons, the Knicks are giving Recent Yorkers reason to cheer — and hope.
The team is on an absolute tear, adding to their recent five-game winning streak by demolishing the Denver Nuggets on Thursday in an explosive 122-84 win.
Once upon a time, the Knicks were a serious symbol of pride for the Big Apple.
Alas, that was way back: For years, long-suffering fans have witnessed one tragic season after one other.
Indeed, they haven’t won a championship since 1973. They haven’t made the finals since 1999.
This 12 months feels different.
Old-school Coach Tom Thibedeau, guard Jalen Brunson and forwards Julius Randle and OG Anunoby have combined to offer the squad a recent culture — and recent life.
Thursday’s spectacular win was in no way a given: The Nuggets are the reigning champs and a formidable opponent for any team, boasting superstar center Nikola Jokic.
But Recent York loves an underdog story, and the Knicks handed the Nuggets the largest point deficit they’ve had all season.
The team’s recent success can also be respiration recent energy into the Garden, where fans have been electrified witnessing the domination.
It’s an excellent comeback story and an excellent reminder: You may’t keep Recent York down.
The Big Apple is a greater city when the Knicks matter.
This 12 months, they’ll’t be ignored.
Rise up and cheer.
