The Boston Celtics were supposed to be celebrating a dynasty in the making. Instead, they have been unraveling from the top down, and New York Knicks fans should be loving it.
Just months after being bounced by New York in the second round of the playoffs, Boston has lost its superstar, reshuffled half the roster, and now seen its longtime owner, Wyc Grousbeck, step down unexpectedly. The timing could not be better for a Knicks team on the rise.
Grousbeck, who helped guide Boston to two championships and oversaw one of the league’s most consistent front offices, was originally set to remain governor through 2028.
