Well I just got back from arguably my most favorite garden moment. It was amazing, I cheered until I lost my voice and I couldnt clap my hands anymore because they were so red. It felt just like the old days for a little while. This is something I will never forget - I hope all of you guys enjoyed it too.

man, at the end of the half time show, the very last intro for Ewing, that did it for me.

amazing is all i can say.

the group of players and coaches that were assembled to pay tribute just reminds you how great of an era came to a close last night. my wife turned to me after the video presentation and said 'it's going to be a while before we see another player like that on a nightly basis, huh' and all i could muster was 'yep'.

i don't know how well my pictures will come out, first time with a borrowed digital camera, but i'll let you know when i've got it worked out. (if you'd like to use them for the site.)

ps. zo. he handled the ny crowd with class.

With all those Future HOF'ers and Former Knick Greats I was hoping to get at least one Auto Last night, knew I wasn't going to get more than one if any so when I moved down to courtside I saw Starks and saw they were letting people towards him during TO for Autos. After the first OT I went the the Guards stopped letting people letting him sign his things and said after the game. Everyone basically left before the 2nd OT ended but I still saw Starks and as I headed towards him he got up on his cell then I went behind a guy and he pulled a Houdini :(

Not to mention I also forgot the camera, anyways great game to go to, Ewing Halftime Ceremony made me sad that the good ol days were gone and never coming back with Ewing, I wish he was 28 forever, double ot was just an added bonus.

It was amazing to watch here in Canada, and I can't imagine how intense it was live. That ceremony was something else. Ewing means more to the Knicks and the city of New York than a champion ever could.

Oh, cruel, cruel fate. As if Knick fans aren't already tormented, here are some more numbers dipped in lead: King led the league in scoring that 1984-85 season with 32.9 ppg, tossed in 60 one Christmas Day, posted back-to-back 50-point games that January, rained in 55 two weeks later and compiled over 19,000 career points before retiring in 1993.

He had Allan Houston's touch, and Latrell Sprewell's edge. Those two years at the end of the Knick bench, King could see the future mapped out so beautifully in the scowl on the kid from Georgetown.

"Nobody has ever played with more passion," said King, "than Patrick Ewing."
