He was a teammate of Earl the Pearl and Phil Jackson. They won the championship in 1970 and 1973.

Knicks’ most recent NBA championship teamsThat would the only Knicks championships. (1970 and 1973) While no where near the Red Sox and Cubs droughts it's getting up there in time.

Damn - Willis Reed 80!
70's don't feel like it was that long ago.
great teams, though: Reed, DeBuscher, Frazier, Monroe, and that liberal Senator from New Jersey...

Respectfully, Earl Monroe was a Baltimore Bullet in 1970.

You are right, he was only there for ‘73.

Shouldn’t have got the jab
To: jttpwalsh
They also had Senator Bill Bradley, Walt Frazier, and Dave DeBusschere.
To: nickcarraway
Earl the Pearl was a Knickerbocker nemesis in 1970. The trade that brought him to NY was a real shocker, to me.
To: jttpwalsh
That was before my time, but I’ve seen some clips.
