Basketball has deep roots in New York, coined as “the city game.” Famous for its connection to legends like Earl “The Goat” Manigault and the historic venues like Rucker Park, the city cherishes its basketball culture. Fans recall Rick Telander’s 1977 sentiment that in New York, “heaven is a playground.” The return of the NBA title to the city would be a significant moment for its devoted followers.
