New York residents celebrated as the Knicks defeated the Spurs 94‑90, securing their first NBA championship in more than fifty years. Fans poured onto the streets in a spontaneous display of jubilation following the historic victory.
As we celebrate, be responsible, look out for one another, stay safe, be smart, and make this a night that reflects the very best of our city.
MSG requested a permit for a watch party for 500-999 fans. We approved that permit for 999 fans.
The celebration will mark the first ticker-tape parade in Knicks history and honor a team that delivered an NBA championship to a city that has waited generations for this moment.
I'm in awe. Whenever someone counts us out, we find a way to come back and do something about it.

We want everybody tonight in New York, be safe, okay? Celebrate, but be safe.
We weren't ready to win an NBA championship.
SHOOTING REPORTED IN TIMES SQUARE AMID KNICKS RIOTS. Rioters are BLOCKING emergency vehicles from responding. THE NATIONAL GUARD SHOULD'VE BEEN DEPLOYED YESTERDAY.
Those who were there when it was so rough aren't really available to really see the fruits of where we are now.
Where I'm from, downtown Brooklyn, a lot of people that grew up down there, the mothers, the aunts, the grandmothers, and grandfathers, a lot of them didn't get to experience the freeness, things like healthier food options and better living, and a safer community, that's the bittersweet part.
