The Knicks' success continued for the next few years. After losing to the Bullets in the 1971 Eastern Conference finals, the team, aided by the acquisitions of Jerry Lucas and Earl "The Pearl" Monroe, returned to the Finals in 1972. This time the Knicks fell to the Lakers in five games. The next year, the results were reversed, as the Knicks defeated the Lakers in five games to win their second NBA title in four years.[4] The team had one more impressive season in 1973--74, as they reached the Eastern Conference finals, where they fell in five games to the Celtics. It was after this season that Reed announced his retirement, and the team's fortunes took a turn for the worse

Knicks were an all-star team much like today's baseball Yankees. Reed, Frazier, Bradley and Jackson were drafted. DeBusschere, Lucas, Barnett and Monroe were all traded for. The amazing thing is how well these guys decided to mesh. That's what stands about these guys. High-paid Knicks since then never have had a clue about this.
