A mind-boggling NBA Finals streak involving New York Knicks players will continue this year thanks to the Boston Celtics Game 7 win over the Miami Heat.
2016: Channing Frye, Cleveland Cavaliers2019: Jeremy Lin, Toronto RaptorsThe streak got put in danger heading into the 2022 conference finals. Portis , Elfrid Payton and DeAndre Jordan were among the former Knicks knocked out in the second round, leaving the hopes of the streak to the Mavericks and Celtics.
Dallas had three guards who previously played for the Knicks: Reggie Bullock, Frank Ntilikina and Trey Burke. Meanwhile, center Luke Kornet was Boston’s only player who had previously played in New York.. The Mavs, however, fell short of the Finals after falling to the Warriors in a gentleman’s sweep.
Though the Knicks and Celtics are longtime adversaries, New York can thank Boston for extending its improbable Finals streak another year.
