This may be hard for young fans of the NBA to believe, but there was a time when the Knicks were relevant. They even played on Christmas Day, usually against the Bulls. But that was a long time ago for both teams. For years the Knicks were an NBA punchline, though things did get better under coach Tom Thibodeau. As you look at this list, not surprisingly most of the guys on it are from the late 60s and early 70s. Knicks fans can only hope this list will look different five years from now. There is a pretty good chance that Jaylen Brunson will climb the list a bit. Karl-Anthony Towns has an outside shot to crack the top 10, but the New York portion of his career is getting off to a late start.
