The New York Knicks have played home to some of the greatest pure talents in NBA history. From Walt Frazier and Patrick Ewing to Bernard King and Michael Ray Richardson, there have been no shortage of transcendent performers.
Perhaps the greatest player in franchise history is one who didn’t get by on his physical gifts, but his unbreakable work ethic: Willis Reed.
Reed is the only player in franchise history to win the NBA MVP award. He was also the Finals MVP for the only two championship teams in Knicks history.
