The basketball net from one of the most legendary sporting events ever -- Willis Reed's miraculous comeback in game 7 of the 1970 NBA Finals -- is up for auction!!
The backstory ... Red Holzman's NY Knicks -- who had a great 60-22 season -- were favored to beat the LA Lakers in the Finals. However, the Knicks championship aspirations appeared to sustain a death blow when superstar Willis Reed tore his thigh muscle in game 5.
Knotted up at 3 games each, no one expected Reed to play in the decisive 7th game.
