It's been a long, strange journey for the Garden Faithful

WNYC News | Jun 9

Knicks fans… we’re just hours from game time.
The first NBA finals game at Madison Square Garden in over 25-years. 
It's been a long, strange journey for the Garden Faithful… and if you’re not among them it might be hard to understand why so many people you see outside these days are rocking the team’s signature orange and blue. 

Joining us now to explain how we got here is WNYC’s Samantha Max. You know her from her criminal justice reporting, but she’s also been digging through our archives here at WNYC to tell the story of the decades leading up to this moment in New York Sports history.
