Well the long cold winter is over, literally, but also figuratively for my beloved New York Knickerbockers, who will play their first playoff game in seven years this evening, when they take on the archrival Boston Celtics. The Celts are deservedly heavy favorites, but I will not be shocked if the series turns out to be competitive. I will not be crushed if it isn't however, as I'm just happy that the team seems to be on the upswing for the first time since the end of the Patrick Ewing era.
