After 53 years of heartache, bad teams and near misses, the New York Knicks are now the toast of the NBA.

Saturday night, behind Jalen Brunson's 45 point performance in game Five in San Antonio, the Knicks long awaited dream of a world championship finally came true.

In this all-new episode of the podcast, Charles Combs and Dana Auguster provide their reaction to the recently completed NBA finals where the New York Knicks completed an improbable run to capture the Larry O'Brien trophy for the first time since 1973.

We will discuss what we witnessed in this championship series between the New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs where the Knicks finally rewarded their fans with a championship that many people in that lonely lot was convinced would never happen in their lifetime.

We will take a look at the finals series with fresh and hot takes on both teams that caused some debates between the two of us so please stay tuned for that.

Also stick around for us to compare the joyous reaction of the Knicks ending their championship drought to other teams that ended long droughts including ones by the Boston Red Sox and the Chicago Cubs.

We have that and so much more in this spirited edition of the Historically Speaking Sports Podcast....a member of the Sports History Network.
