my Dad was a Knicks fan for over 60 years. the time i probably disappointed him the most was when i chose the Celtics as my favorite team. he always told me that i would have to bring flowers to his grave if the Knicks ever won it all, because he insisted it won’t happen again in his lifetime. last fall, my dad lost his battle with cancer. just a little before the start of this NBA season. i miss him dearly, and i know he would be enjoying the hell out of this Knicks run. as a Celtics fan, it’s hard to watch a rival have this type of run. but as a son, i find some peace in it. i just know my Dad is watching somewhere and can’t believe his Knicks are Finals bound. f*ck cancer. RIP Dad.
