@@RB01.10There can only be 1 winner at the end of every playoff run. It’s still pretty impressive that they even made the finals under the circumstances.
@@RB01.10 faulty memory -- the Knicks went to the East Final the following year, and made the playoffs a year after that. It wasn't until 2002 that they fell off the cliff, into their long Dolan nightmare. As to the "mediocrity" of the '99 team, remember that the 99 season was short (there were no games in fall '98). Likely in a full season, these Knicks would have leveled out and finished higher than #8. They were working Spree into the rotation, figuring out how he fit. Obviously, they were a much better team once they had that going.
@@IanMcGrath70 Fair points, I was quite young and didn’t pay much attention to basketball in 99 so yes my memory may be bit hazy for back then. I just meant they haven’t made it back to a Finals since. Do you think had the full season been played the Spurs would’ve even made it and would the Knicks have done better than just five games against them?
Spurs are the most consistent franchise in sports history. They've only missed the playoffs 5 times in franchise history and the last time the Spurs missed the playoffs, Space Jam was released😱
Kawhi Not #KawhiSexual #Kawhi4MVP I saw an NBA list that ranks these Spurs in the top 5 defensive team of all time, if they had Kawhi and prime Tony Parker they'd never allow more than 90 points a game 😂😂😂

Tim Duncan was so great at such a young age. He was also ready to seize the moment at a young age. Ready to deliver in the clutch. To win it all. Amazing. Truly one of the greatest players to ever play.
As I said above, not QUITE the end for the Knicks - they still had 2 decent seasons left in them before they dropped into their 2-decade Dolan malaise (4 playoff appearances in 19 years)
Patrick Yip it’s because people couldn’t appreciate the Spurs going back to the basic play style of the late 60s and 70s. People were too used to the fast paced creative play style started during the 80s
As a basketball fanatic, I remember watching the 1999 NBA playoffs, and the way the New York Knicks eliminated every other team to make it to the NBA finals was incredible! During the finals, it was like the last week of school, but I never attended the last day of the school year becuz I had to go on vacation with my family. 1 week into my vacation, I found out from my dad that the San Antonio Spurs have won the NBA championship! This was Tim Duncan's 1st NBA championship, he spent his entire 19-year playing career with the Spurs & he retired as a 5 time NBA champion!
god damn i miss that knicks team. remember my dad buying tickets in the late 90s (maybe this 99 year) just outside of msg one night, and the dude told us they were pretty good seats. ending up 2 rows back.
The good ol' Tim Duncan cooking in this game. He and Sprewell had quite a battle in the 4th quarter of this game but my guy prevailed. Man, I miss that guy already. Timmmaaayyyy!!!! (Bill Land voice). :)
So heart-breaking 💔😢. Knew the Knicks were outmatched, especially without Ewing, but so wish they could have pushed a sixth game in San Antonio. They came so close. Still proud of the way they battled. If Houston could have gotten hot again in the fourth with Spreewell it would have went six games.
Lopsided series, actually. That was actually an already banged-up Ewing-less Knicks squad that tried to go Cinderella finish. It would've been a better series if Reggie and the Pacers faced the Spurs in that year. Spurs in 7 had it happened.

@@airpegasus5167 you are aware that San Antonio won four more chips because they were starting a dynasty. although they were the same age Ewing's body was more beat up than Robinson's. Healthy or not the Spurs were a better team. You using injury as excuse does not cut it. If that's the case, Bulls fans could say if MJ Scottie and Rodman come back the Knicks aren't even in it
I don't want to sound like a bandwagon (lol Knicks Bandwagon what a joke) but had Ewing not been injured this Finals series could have looked way different. It sucks that the only thing stopping Ewing and the Knicks before was Jordan and the Bulls.
If other star without a ring like Reggie, Chuck, Nique, everyone but Stock/Malone lol cause they had each others for 90% of their careers. Getting a franchising lottery type player when you at the tail end of your career is a blessing. Larry almost got it Len Bias, Steph got Wiseman, JK, Moody. Kobe had some young guns but no fuel left in the tank (Rip Bean). Some players got lucky, some didn’t.
I swear Gregg Poppovich looks the same for the last 20 years. He's one of those you don't now how old he but you know he is old. Now that he is older he's just older.
I remember this. Sprewell made a bad play. He was double teamed & should have kicked that ball out but instead he wanted to try & Kobe Bryant the situation wearing number 8 smh!!!!
The Bulls manager fucked it up! If the Bulls would have kept the same team the following year we would have seen the Bulls vs Spurs finals which in my opinion would have been the Bulls first Finals loss.

they had a 2-1 lead in the 2nd round and blew a 67 win season a franchise high last playoffs.
God WestBrick it wasn't 3-1 in NBA finals and we didn't have the best record in NBA HISTORY we had the best record in FRANCHISE HISTORY
Also didn't play against LeBron and Kyrie
I Miss Tim Duncan 😥
who doesn't ?
I hope we can be the new era New York Knicks this time for the heart of the city, this will be our time to shine stand up New York.

I'm really missing Duncan right now :(
The awakening of a new dynasty, that is the San Antonio Spurs who would go on to win 4 four more titles.

Spurs forever.

Ps Peace to DMX "Aint No Way You Gon Stop "
Good analogy
SA is a true team year to year
Remember, Duncan was a just a sophomore here.

i never knew they made it to the finals.. but i'm a 97 kid so i got a excuse
Knicks in the finals? , this must be a fake video.
Knicks were actually a good franchise until james dolan became the owner
Nyc Pigeon Patrick Ewing era? The only thing stopping that nigga was Jordan
Nyc Pigeon they're number 8 seed that time.
Nyc Pigeon lol they used to be really good back in the 90s
That, and am almost surprised it's not in black & white for that matter as well! (L.O.L.!)
The first team to win the NBA title not named the Chicago Bulls or Houston Rockets since 1990.
who is that young guy, number 21? he looks good
FMFvideos hahahaha
Tim and Robinson were the best front court ever
Imagine if Jordan signed one more year. Bulls vs Spurs
Can only imagine what could've happened if Ewing and Johnson were healthy, not saying we win but the Knicks definitely hold a better chance.
I swear Gregg Poppovich looks the same for the last 20 years. He's one of those you don't now how old he but you know he is old. Now that he is older he's just older.
great game
At the beggining of the season pops almost got fired... gj spurs for keeping him
Without Patrick Ewing, the Knicks didn't have a chance.
If they had Ewing I feel they could have won
gawd damn, I love the spurs!! #93tilinfinity
Crazy that Steve Kerr was having a 4 championships in a row. Any other player has ever done that? I don't think
Wow, now look at our Knicks roster....
And the rest is history.
Oh man, I forgot about ruthless houston!!
It's the Finals and the shot clock above the basket wasn't working?
