The New York Knicks, short for Knickerbockers, are a professional basketball team based in New York City. They play in the National Basketball Association (NBA).
The Knicks are one of only two teams of the original National Basketball Association still located in its original city (the other being the Boston Celtics). The Basketball Association of America and the National Basketball League merged in 1949 to form the NBA.
The Knicks' first game was played on November 1, 1946 against the Toronto Huskies at Toronto's Maple Leaf Gardens, where the Knicks won 68-66. The Knicks were consistent playoff contenders in their early years. In the 1969-70 season, the Knicks had a then-NBA record 18 straight victories en route to 60-22 record, which was the best regular season record in the team's history. After defeating the Bullets in the Eastern Division semifinals and the Milwaukee Bucks in the Eastern Division finals, the Knicks defeated the Los Angeles Lakers in seven games to capture their first NBA title.

The Boston Celtics compete in the Eastern Conference of the National Basketball Association. Since being founded in 1946, the Celtics have been known as one of the best professional sports franchises of all time. When it comes down to it, there are not too many teams in the NBA that have a more storied tradition than the Celtics. Not only have they won many championships, but some of the greatest players of all time have suited up for them.
The Celtics play their home games at TD Banknorth Garden. They began playing there in 1995 after many years in the old Boston Garden. But one thing is for sure. No matter where the Celtics play their games, they are sure to have a large following.
When it comes to success in the NBA, the Celtics are king. They have won an astounding 16 NBA championships over the years. This is in addition to winning their conference 19 times, and their division 25 times. This not only makes the Celtics the winningest NBA team of all time, but they also rank among the best when compared to all professional sports franchises.
The list of great Celtics players is nearly endless. Some of the more famous names include Pete Maravich, Larry Bird, Bill Russell, John Havlicek, Dave Cowens, Bob Cousy, Kevin McHale, Robert Parish, and many more.
The Boston Celtics have been winning games for many years. Although they have not been able to duplicate this success as of late, the organization is working harder than ever before to reach the top once again!
