New York City has erupted into an orgy of celebration, its streets swarming with crowds delirious with joy over the KNICKS ending their 53-year drought and defeating the San Antonio Spurs to become NBA champions!

Congrats to them as they leave no doubt as to which was the better team by winning 4 out of 5 games to take the crown. Good job!!

It's a sign of the times that victorious sports teams are generating so much enthusiasm from their followers.

LIfe looms so uncertain, - is filled with such strife, due to the political and economic turmoil stifling the country, that people are desperate for things to cheer about. Anything to invest their hopes in!

Here in Chicago, even our hapless white Sox, have the city excited because for the first time in 7 years, the team is playing .500 ball, even as BEAR fans can hardly wait for football to return, hoping for another thrilling season to distract us from the national conflict.

Keeping up with the home teams has certainly added a little excitement to my hum drum existence.

Sending the message that "good things come to those who wait," makes the KNICKS even bigger heroes.

Electing a competent, respectable leader to succeed Donald Trump is certainly worth waiting for!

All forms of entertainment including sports serve as an opiate & healthy distraction to keep people from getting too stressed &/or depressed in life.

I thought the NBA would force 1 more game & allow the Knicks to win the championship back in NY.

Guess the NBA was satisfied with the money haul especially game 3 when POTUS OJ attended the game & drove ticket prices up & shut down areas around Madison Square Garden.

Congrats to the Knicks in overcoming a 53-year drought & winning the NBA championship.😎

Yeah, a lot of people thought that. even believing the series it would go 7 games just to generate more revenue.

The knicks have basically restored Villanova's Championship team. Bronson dad played for the last knicks team to make the finals. Such a great story!
