We’re almost too superstitious to talk about it because we don’t want to jinx ourselves, but the Knicks won Game 1 of the NBA Finals against the San Antonio Spurs last night\u2014a huge deal, especially considering it happened on the opponent’s home court. That means we’re just three wins away from the title we’ve been waiting decades to see.<\/p>\n
But, as we said, we’re a little too excited to think clearly right now, and definitely too nervous to tempt fate.\u00a0The city’s enthusiasm has reached such a fever pitch that Madison Square Garden has even reversed its decision to ban watch parties for away games, reopening the arena to fans eager to cheer the team on together.<\/p>\n
So instead of trying to put our feelings into words, we’re turning our attention to images and videos, reliving the victory through social media clips of New Yorkers celebrating across the city.<\/p>\n
Honestly, we can’t stop watching them. They perfectly capture the excitement, joy and collective hope that’s taken over New York right now. Let’s go, Knicks.<\/p>\n
