Knicks fought a big celtic lead & deficit comeback;

Celtics vs Knicks Eastern Conf. 1973nba finals
http://www.life.com/image/85874654

This is how lineup looks & I am watching the 3rd quarter which was on ABC-7 then

Celtics:
C - Dave Cowens
PF- Paul Silas
SF- Don Nelson
PG- Jojo White
SG- Don Chaney (yep knicks ex coach)

Knicks:
C - Willis Reed
PF- Dave Debusschere
SF- Bill Bradley
PG- Walt Frazier
SG- Dean Meminger

Believe Havlichek (celts) and Monroe (knicks) were injured believe also SG Dick Barnett was still with team
Forgot to mention, Paul Westpaul was also on celtics team as was Phil Jackson still on Knicks. Them guys looked
funny in them short type uniforms back then.

phil jackson "the windmill" had a great playoff series that year..he's a winner that should have been the knicks coaching hire back in 1990..instead the knicks hired the other jackson, stu to coach the team..soon after the bulls promoted phil as head coach and the rest is history
